Responded to a longer DM from an artist in another country, imagining transcendental collaborations.

When it comes to coalescing functional creative discourses, one must recognize the power of networks and conversation over the actual art object. Culture is not in objects but between them.

People spending time together is the fundamental unit of civilization. The various rituals, behaviors, necessities, patterns, architectures that make these gatherings possible are less important than their results. The gathering of peoples is the purpose of humanity.

Even those who separate themselves from society build a monument for others to gawk at.

The admirable simplicity of isolation, the derangement of the hermitage, a life stretched to functional limits and maintained there, at the edge of possibility.

The begin again is never ending. A recent instant can be revisited if we focus, breathe deeply, immersive massacre. Time goes backwards if you breathe slowly enough and focus, watch the trees grow, seasons recede, orbits slowly expanding, gravities tendrils grasping desperately, always failing to keep it together.

OPTIMISM : A LAST RESORT OF THE DEFEATED

We are all very busy building the economies of the future, tools that we hope will change the world and make some money in the process. After all, nobody starts building experimental digital economies and currencies without an interest in money.

Whether through crypto-speculation or the emergence of post-professional art economies, we are all interested in the nature of value, transactions and wealth.

THE WAY TO MAKE MONEY IS TO MAKE MONEY

Luckily, web3 has built in incentives to reward participation, to encourage creation by steering the accumulated value of uncountable exchanges of information, feelings, data, numbers, back to those who are sending and receiving the signals.

People should be paid for immersing themselves in endless symbolic lineaments, enveloping minds, rooms awash in digital pallor, yawning maws where the eyes and ears should be.

Self ownership, transparency, privacy, decentralization, and fair compensation for cultural production are the foundations. Those building the new world embrace the utopian potential of these technologies, while the vast majority of people expect only a dystopian cyberpunk tech bro AI gig worker hell scape.

If there is any hope to reclaim the future of endless creativity, freedom, sex, drugs, sobriety, exercise, pleasure, art, rest, leisure, hedonism and meaning, we must state our expectations, make clear our demands, invoke the very gods we wish to usurp.

WARS ARE NOT WON WITH WEAPONRY ALONE

Articulating these possibilities to skeptics might be as important as the actual building, if we are going to reclaim infinity and imagination from egoist capitalism and material reality.

It takes ideologies, passions, motives that outweigh the ball and chain of history on the scales of the possible. We are not fighting but we will win. The battle is between the world and what it can be. Everything can be improved.

Blockchains and open access digital network technologies are a new communications infrastructure that requires building but we mustn’t lose sight of impossible dreams if they are ever going to come true.

MY FATHERS HOUSE, A DEN OF THIEVES

The cathedral and the bazaar have hybridized. The temple has fallen. Bankers and merchants are happily ensconced in the greater cultural legacy. Culture is a collective endeavor, occurring between objects and people. Unlike a blockchain, nobody can own a full node of culture.

As we see the first hints of post-commercial semio-cultural engines, it easy for those with technical expertise to forget that there is vision of the world that still needs to be sold, practiced, evolved into common sense before the future gets here.

In other words, the future needs marketing, branding, It is not only engineering that will build experimental economies. Utopia must be advertised.
