Digital de Suite at Ace Hotel New York

<p><strong>Digital de Suite</strong></p> <p><strong>An Afternoon Discussion on Art, Droite de Suite & Blockchain Technologies</strong></p> <p><strong>Friday May 4, 3-6pm</strong></p> <p><strong>Ace Hotel New York, 20 West 29th Street, New York, NY 10001</strong></p> <p>Ace Hotel New York, Even, Monegraph, Tech:NYC & Daata Editions are delighted to announce Digital de Suite, an afternoon of discussions about art, droit de suite and the blockchain. Ace Hotel New York, May 4, 2018, 3-6pm / <a href="http://acehotel.com/digitaldesuite" target="_blank">acehotel.com/digitaldesuite</a></p> <p>Over the last six months, the blockchain has dominated conversations about technology and its relationship to markets from currencies to CryptoKitties. For the arts, whose markets are as opaque and unregulated as possible, blockchain technologies have the potential to fully upend traditional models. From production and its interests in authenticity and serialization, to market concerns including provenance and droit de suite, assumptions as basic as when artists should be paid for their work are now subject to re-evaluation.</p> <p>Artists, entrepreneurs, and established players in the art market and tech communities will participate in panel discussions and solo presentations in an afternoon appropriately scheduled between the opening of Frieze Art Fair and New York’s Creative Tech Week.</p> <p>The afternoon will conclude with a presentation of new work by Hayden Dunham that address the information systems inherent to blockchain technology. Commissioned in part by David Gryn of Daata Editions, with support from Tech:NYC. The work will be registered on Monegraph and available for purchase (and subsequent tracking) during Frieze London.</p> <p>Participants: Hayden Dunham, Artist; Joao Enxuto & Erica Love, Tracking;Jess Houlgrave, Codex; Alexander Provan, Triple Canopy; Hugo Liu, Artsy; Kevin McCoy, Monegraph; Sarah Meyohas, Artist; James Tarmy, Bloomberg; Brad Troemel, Artist; Amy Whitaker, New York University; Noah Wunsch, Sotheby’s; Artie Vierkant, Artist.</p> <p>Hosted by <strong><a href="http://daata-editions.com" target="_blank">Daata Editions</a>, <a href="http://evenmagazine.com/" target="_blank">Even Magazine</a>, <a href="https://monegraph.com/" target="_blank">Monograph</a>, <a href="https://www.technyc.org/" target="_blank">Tech:NYC</a>, <a href="http://acehotel.com/digitaldesuite" target="_blank">Ace Hotels</a></strong><br></p> <p>@evenmagazine @acehotel @monegraph @daataeditions @tech_nyc #digitaldesuite</p> <p><a href="https://splashthat.com/sites/view/digitaldesuite.splashthat.com?utm_campaign=NYC+-+2018+-+Digital+De+Suite+&utm_medium=shortlink&utm_source=&utm_content=www.acehotel.com%2Fdigitaldesuite" target="_blank">SIGN UP HERE</a></p>
