RD Report
Two announcements/articles were particularly encouraging, and no the reference is not to Vanity Fair.
Yesterday, Trevor Paglen was announced as the winner of the Guggenheim LG Award. Given to artists focused on technology, he receives $100,000 USD, and we love to see it. Out of all the conversations and interviews I’ve had over the years, he is one of the most memorable. If you care to get to know him, have a listen of this ‘The Future of Art’ podcast episode with Trevor, Alejandro Cartagena, and me.
Today, Metakovan shared this article from CNN: “He spent $69 million on an NFT. Five years on, he believes in digital art more than ever”. Now we’re talking. Writer Oscar Holland depicts a journey from 2020 to present day that feels honest in its reflection on a speculative bubble, conviction, re-invention, and substance.
