Art in Permacrisis #6: Inte Gloerich and Decentralised Autonomous Organisations

For the 6th episode of Art in Permacrisis, we talk to Inte Gloerich. Inte is a critical media and technology researcher, and a colleague at the Institute of Network Cultures. She is one of the core people behind the research community MoneyLab. Inte also just finished a PhD on feminist blockchain imaginaries. We discuss blockchain beyond the hype, and beyond the wish to get rich fast. How can blockchain be a tool for radical imagination and decentralised autonomous organising in the arts? We discuss concepts and dilemma’s, and briefly revisit what’s left of the NFT boom, but we mainly dive into the practices of contemporary DAOs, from Dayra, to Black Swan, The Sphere, Circles, and CultureStake. What works? What doesn’t work? How? And why?
