Inte Gloerich is a critical media and technology researcher at the Institute of Network Cultures. She is one of the core people behind the research community MoneyLab and recently finished her PhD on feminist blockchain imaginaries. In this episode of Art in Permacrisis, 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 dilemmas, 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?

Art in Permacrisis is a podcast of the Institute of Network Cultures and Caradt on organizing art workers in the face of the ever-growing stack of crises. It is hosted by Sepp Eckenhaussen, and tech support is provided by Tommaso Campagna. Salome Berdzenishvili edited this episode.
