Offline at the edge. A tool for rural sustainability & innovation. A batch of 30 PocketFM communication systems I hacked to support offline networking, a captive portal and lightweight graphical multilingual web server to support low literacy communities.

How do we collaborate to envision the world we would like to create together?
Start with living communities and cultures...
NFTs and the 'Art' world: panic and possibility, Ruth Catlow @TheArtNewspaper

Ruth gets so much right here! It's exhausting to have the media only write about large sales only to have the very same media come back asking why art is only about money. It's like burning down your own house and then asking why you are homeless.

if only we could culturally get over the part where it's impossible for "hot girls" to understand technology

Nice one @Suitpossum !
Eyo people, watch this if you want to understand some of the actors involved in the huge changes to money taking place right now
- at the intersection of hackers, banks, central banks, governments and monetary activists -
In case you missed it. I produced a simple overview of some key trends in the global monetary system, along with animations youtube.com/watch?v=DK1DZlWa…

Yes... the current state of NFTs on Ethereum is patchy at best. See: teapawt.org/jonty/status/137216342…
But solutions are getting better. But I like Furtherfield's approach of looking at art on / with / for the blockchain beyond just NFTs.

Are you aware that a fellow cryptoartist has been building a timeline for quite a while now? It is the most comprehensive one I am aware of.

@MLOdotArt, the suggestion of putting this on-chain is a good one I think?
Sounds like a great partnership?!

We are aware. This is excellent work.
But our point is that since 2013 blockchain technologies have promised the potential for collective curation.
We want to test this potential...
to match the rhetoric at last...
to decentralise and diversify artworld cannon production.

Time for a collectively curated #blockchain and crypto art timeline. decal.furtherfield.org/2020/…
We think we need a timeline to chart the rise and influence of Blockchain Art and Crypto Art.
Let's do it properly...
...and use blockchain’s decentralised curation tools to do it together!

🚨The best leftist hot take on NFTs you'll ever listen to🚨
In this patreon episode I go through some of the hot takes from the left I've seen and heard, explain what I think they're getting wrong, and provide a couple of alternative uses of NFTs.

Thanks MP!
In this study we present a collection of "indicative milestone works" and there are many eyewatering ommissions😓
Our intention was to show some of the range of cultures at work AND demonstrate the need for a new less exclusionary way of building artworld consensus.

Prior to NFTs there was a whole load of radical energy and critical thinking/making by artists in the blockchain space. This 2015 book by @furtherfield and @TorqueEditions gathers a lot of it... & of course its ongoing! liverpooluniversitypress.co.…
