Daata
Adventure
In March 2022 I launched a month of activities with artists, sci-fi authors, and gamers exploring their infinite pursuit for 'adventure'. This supported Daata’s partnerships with Friends with Benefits DAO and Art Fair Philippines.
Online exhibitions, film screenings, talks and games examined our relationship with the future. Spanning a wide range of issues - from racism in AI to the climate emergency - this constellation of activity brought audiences across three continents together.
Guests included Rashaad Newsome, LACMA curator Joel Ferree, Arthur Jafa, Leeroy New, sci-fi writer Eliza Victoria, artist collective Keiken, Jeremy Couillard and Jira Duguid.
