[ISEA2023] Paper: Victoria Hilsberg — DAOs: A Blockchain-based application not intervening, but strengthening the agility of contemporary arts

Abstract

Theme: NFT – Blockchains Subtheme: Symbiotic Organizations

The Blockchain-based application DAO not only confronts the complexity of the modern society through its comprehensive application potential. It also channels the elements of contemporary discourse such as political qualities of art, participatory art and cybernetic forces. Within the timeframe of the existence of the concept since 2014, DAOs enable the interconnection of culture, technology and ecology.
