“We live in a platform economy, and we rely far too much on a handful of powerful platforms for our online interactions and living. If artists are willing to accept shifting metas in Web3 instead of seeking viable alternatives, it indicates that these platforms still hold significant power and that the Web3 art space may not be as decentralized as we would like to believe.”
✨💥🥹 The first version (V.01) of our website is live: lanpartycuratorial.xyz (WIP)
LAN Party is a curatorial duo by Vienna Kim and myself that curates IRL & online exhibitions and publishes research on curating in Web3, to expand critical curatorial practices online.
IN <1 YEAR: ✹ we curated 2 online shows on @superrareco x ONBD & on @zoranetwork. ✹ we published texts in WIRED, Fisheye, OUTLAND, @themassagejp, @t2world & more ✹ we started a monthly column in Fisheye (immersive) covering onchain culture ✹ we hosted 2 community dinners in Paris and Tokyo that gathered artists & builders to discuss curating in web3 (sponsored by @zoranetwork) ✹ we launched 'Mantras for Curators', a community-generated collection of mementos on why curation matters ✹ we won the FWB x Optimism grant, Vienna attended FEST, and met amazing builders from all over the world! ✹ most importantly we strengthen our friendship.
COMING UP: ✹ Hypersub !! 😌 ✹ more texts in incredible publications ✹ more curations TBA ✹ long term goal: our magazine + buy an Alpacas farm ✨
We’ve just started. Watch out! ❤️🔥👊

Thanks again, Seoul! 🇰🇷 That one was super cool—especially spending quality time with frens. It was so much fun, socializing, art, and crypto. I'm returning to Tokyo now, bringing back inspiration, a few opportunities and ideas for LAN Party here in Seoul, and most importantly, new frenships.
I'm boosted now and I’ll be grinding hard in the coming days. See you in 2 hours, Tokyo, and see you in a few weeks, Seoul! 😊🫰🏼
✨👨🏼💻I’ve written down a few of my recent thoughts about virality. It might differ from your perspective, which is OK. Thank you!
