The Boys of Summer: An In-Depth Look

Written by Wade Wallerstein, Curator**Mitchell F. Chan’s Boys of Summer (2023) is an artwork about quantification and its impact on culture. **Taking the tripartite form of a video game, a collection of tokenized profile picture artworks, and a social marketplace performance, Boys of Summer deftly uses the great American pastime of baseball as a metaphor to explicate the increasing abstraction of our identities, dreams, and experiences as statistics. Abstraction is the process by which things...

Homages & Practices: Making and expanding digital art traditions
This week, we’re releasing three collections that at first glance, might seem not to have much in common. Each project is distinct in its own right.

Experiential art evokes a sense of ‘being there;’ it provides an access point that becomes intimately enmeshed with our sensorium. From the first interactive multi-user dungeons, to the interactive net.art of the 90s, all the way up through the post-internet experiments of the augh...
