I’m reading it because I’ve always been a fan of <a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pop_art">pop art</a>, and as I’ve started to understand more about its context during its period, I also want to understand graffiti and street art better.</p> <p>For me this is personally linked to the <a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Demoscene">demo- and introscene</a>, which, as far as I’m concerned is art, and I think its context links pretty well into current digital art and scarcity which is now possible with blockchains, explored by, among others, <a href="https://async.art/">async art</a> and <a href="https://superrare.co/">SuperRare</a>.</p>https://blog.cfelde.com/2020/04/art-on-the-blockchain/Thu, 30 Apr 2020 15:17:46 +0000https://blog.cfelde.com/2020/04/art-on-the-blockchain/<p>Many years ago, in my late teens, I used to attend <a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_Gathering_(LAN_party)">The Gathering</a>. It’s a fantastic combination of people, passion, dedication and fun mixed together for a few days each Easter.</p> <p>If you’re not familiar with <a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Demoscene">computer culture</a> this whole thing might seem very alien, and, for many, somewhat a waste of time. But for those of us whom are familiar with this domain, and especially those of us who had some experience with the demoscene, it brings back a feeling of accomplishment.</p>
