Hmm sounds very similar to the anti-institutional rhetoric of web3
Quote Tweet
The idea of rejecting institutions to build a purer society on the internet, in vogue in tech in the 90s, by the 2010s had become a mandate to abolish and remake those institutions in big tech's image

If you were working on an exhibition that's meant to be a sort of "critical introduction to the metaverse" what texts would you consider to be essential reading?

Another excellent and thought-provoking piece from just dropped:
"Artists formalize the cultural mess in their jabs at time and remind us to question what we mindlessly accept as the order of things."
"Looking at food systems, we would talk about food miles. That got me wondering about technology. Thinking about it in terms of media miles; where is your media coming from?" Lots of wisdom in this chat between two legends & :

Read this last night and it did a lot to assuage my own nuclear fears and put things into perspective. Agree that the nuclear threat is perhaps a red herring that misdirects our attention and anxiety, which is precisely why it's been invoked.

Folks, can you recommend some of your favorite writers, thinkers, essays on the “incommunicable” or “ineffable”? I feel like there is a classic text that is on the tip of my tongue but eludes me…. 🤔

A good interview to come back to every time the question of whether art is "vital" or why it matters in times of crisis comes up (which, for me at least, is increasingly often these days)
Quote Tweet
CONVERSATION: After staging an exhibition in her bombed-out apartment, Ukrainian curator Kateryna Iakovlenko talks about how resistance is itself an art form, her alternating "rage" and "indifference" towards Russian aggressors, and “life after ruins”.

Interesting thread on the source material used to train Meta's text-to-video.
The Shutterstock dataset is earmarked for academic, Non-Commercial Research & Private Study which this would seem to be in violation of.

Meta's new text-to-video AI was trained on 10.7 million 15-second-long watermarked sample videos scraped from Shutterstock. twitter.com/simonw/status/

Whoah. This is wild. I've been talking to lots of artists lately about AI-generated video or films and this is the first time it feels like not a super distant concept.

Impressive from Meta
Prompt based video, results look even better than the Cogvideo generations

At the moment we are seeing 3x improvements every couple of weeks. Cycles are getting shorter, results are getting better. Exciting.
