Congrats Ruth and Marc and the whole team! This book truly is revolutionary and I’m looking forward to reading about it. All part of the idea of the autonomous reality community. 

 

Best,

 

Randall

Artists Re:thinking the Blockchain.

Edited by Ruth Catlow, Marc Garrett, Nathan Jones, and Sam Skinner.

(pre-order) https://liverpooluniversitypress.co.uk/products/100826

The blockchain is widely heralded as the new Internet - another dimension in an ever-faster, ever-more-powerful interlocking of ideas, actions and values. Principally the blockchain is a ledger distributed across a large array of machines that enables digital ownership and exchange without a central administering body. Within the arts it has profound implications as both a means of organising and distributing material, and as a new subject and medium for artistic exploration. This landmark publication will bring together a diverse array of artists and researchers engaged with the blockchain, unpacking, critiquing and marking the arrival of it on the cultural landscape for a broad readership across the arts and humanities.
