DRAWING WITH VERA MOLNAR: A MEDIA ARCHAEOLOGY OF EARLY COMPUTER GRAPHICS
Zsofi Valyi-Nagy joins NFTuesdayLA to share her research on Vera Molnar (1924-2023), the Hungarian-born, Paris-based pioneer of digital and generative art. This talk takes a media archaeological approach to Molnar’s Lettres de ma mère (1981-1991), a series of plotter drawings that “simulated” the artist’s late mother’s handwriting. By reverse-engineering these drawings using hardware and software that Molnar herself used––a vintage microcomputer and the programming language BASIC––Valyi-Nagy reenacts Molnar’s process to shed light on the collaborative, interactive, and embodied aspects of early digital art, as well as its material history.

METAHUMAN CONCEPTUAL
This program will unveil the unique artistic journey of a woman who ventured into creating art from 3D scans of her own body, establishing herself as a model in the metaverse. Merging technology with personal creativity, byviki's metahuman conceptual work erases the traditional boundaries of art. Although the war in her homeland, Ukraine, did not alter her art, it significantly impacted her life. Her journey from Kyiv through Paris to Los Angeles opened up community support and new horizons for the development of her talent.

How to Make Art and Influence People : Make Games, You Cowards
In 2017, Mitchell F. Chan created one of the earliest tokenized artworks by thinking about blockchain tokens as an obvious site to continue the work of conceptualists like Yves Klein. In this talk, Chan takes us from that moment to today, when videogames are the site where multiple currents in contemporary art are about to converge.

A Cyberarchaeology of Checkpoints
To celebrate the publication of his new book, A Cyberarchaeology of Checkpoints (2024, Irrelevant Press), author, designer, and ethnographer Ruby Thelot will present some of the key ideas from it, around digital preservation, sustainable memory systems and enduring digital communities. The book is about a lost digital community that lived under the comment section of a Youtube video and Ruby's attempts at preserving their archive. 'Checkpoints' is not merely a book; it is a rescue operation for the human spirit in a digital age. It challenges us to contemplate what we leave behind in bytes and pixels, urging us to remember that even in the vast architecture of the internet, the most minute details can harbor enormous weight.

Topo-Logical
Chris Coleman and Laleh Mehran join NFTuesdayLA to share their individual and collaborative art practices looking into ideologies, identity and landscapes. They have been creating experiences since the turn of the century, leveraging digital technologies to speak about 21st century subjects. Mehran uses metaphor and the language of science to speak about fanaticism and the ways it is used to manipulate people. Coleman explores how our perceptions are changing in an increasingly digitized world. They both explore the systems that are put into place to keep people apart, and how we might find better futures working together in spaces like national borders and the internet.
Coleman and Mehran have been building a collection of digital art over the last 15 years as part of their work engaging with the digital arts and experimenting with models of support. They also started the Clinic for Open Source Arts (COSA) to help free and open source tools for digital creativity become more accessible and sustainable. These efforts, in addition to their decades as educators, are all part of a strong belief that expressing creative ideas through digital lenses is critical to our collective futures.

David Em on the Archeology of the Metaverse
David Em joins NFTuesdayLA to speak about the archeology of the metaverse and five firsts that he experienced in his lifetime. David is a digital art pioneer who created the first navigable virtual worlds, and we are delighted to welcome him to El Cid for a very special program.
David Em was born in Los Angeles in 1952, and soon after moved with his parents and older sister to South America. The family moved to the East Coast of the US when David was a teenager. He returned to California in 1972, where he set up his first art studio in San Francisco. David grew up without television until he was ten years old. Nobody could have predicted the impact screens would have on his future.
At 22, he heard the word “digital” for the first time, and in 1975, at the age of 23, he created his first digital artwork at the Xerox Palo Alto Research Center. Completely immersed in experimental digital art, in 1976 David built articulated 3D creatures with mainframes at Information International Incorporated. This led to his becoming the Artist-in-Residence at NASA’s Jet Propulsion Laboratory and at the California Institute of Technology from 1977 to 1988. Here he created digital art utilizing the state-of-the-art software used by NASA’s Voyager flybys to photograph Saturn and other interstellar objects.
Since 1991, David has worked independently, building his own computers to explore the metaverse. His recent art incorporates AI, something David predicted in 1977 would fundamentally transform the art of the future.

Crashing Through The Feed
Artist Andrew Benson joins NFTuesdayLA to discuss his generative and experimental NFT Art projects that stem from an established practice of deconstructing digital media from the ground up. Benson’s process challenges the methods and processes of image creation and generative art through a persistent exploration of feedback networks, human gesture, and synthesis. Benson honed his singular approach to video and digital media in the context of early 2000s DIY performances and musical collaborations. He has since built an artistic practice that encompasses live visual performance, web works, installation, animation, and generative experiences. Today he brings his peculiar, rigorous and playfully defiant sense of digital media to web3 through independent NFT projects like Grinders, Shadow Flora, and most recently Energetic Beings (in partnership with Highlight and FWB).

VTLK.XYZ
Walter Langelaar joins NFTuesdayLA to speak about his latest project with crypto art&design research lab co-de.fi VTLK.xyz takes its base material from a 3D scanned pointcloud file created with Vitalik Buterin back in 2017, when he was visiting Aotearoa New Zealand. Consisting of over 420K points, this dataset is now tokenized via pre-signed voucher structs (i.e. ‘lazy minting’) that can be redeemed/minted by the NFT buyer; creating a gradual, community driven, inscription of this object onto the Ethereum blockchain. The project comments on the art-historical context of the buste as a medium for transport and acquisition, as well as more contemporary concerns such as fractionalized ownership structures and inclusive cultural participation.
8/15/23
Cyber Wave Feminism
FEMMEBIT founder Kate Parsons and artists Casey Kauffmann and Huntress Janos join NFTuesdayLA to speak about FEMMEBIT's newest collaboration with Feral File, In Medias Res. Curated by Parsons and Janna Avner, In Medias Res features 9 LA and LA-adjacent artists: Petra Cortright, Tuna Bora, JJ Stratford, Anna Luisa Petrisko, Wednesday Kim, Ellie Pritts, Eve-Lauryn LaFountain, Casey Kauffmann and Huntress Janos. The artworks in this exhibition reflect today’s digital uprootedness from time-based narratives of the silver screen to invoke liminal spaces of belonging. They challenge conventional definitions of cities and urban identities in relation to mainstream media, geography and land ownership.
The exhibition takes its name from the narrative device “in medias res,” a Latin term defined as “into the midst of things.” Suggested by this phrase, the nine artists in the exhibition invite us to engage with the heart of their stories, wherein they explore their personal relationships to Los Angeles as they negotiate daily life in relation to Hollywood and society at large.

From the Void Matrix to The Blockchain
Artist Victor Acevedo joins NFTuesdayLA to speak about the development of his digital work (1983 to present) and how it was informed conceptually by his geometry explorations during his analog media period (1977-1985) He will base his talk on his recently published 400-page career survey monograph called Acevedo in Context. Starting in 2007 he transitioned to video and began producing what he calls Electronic Visual Music (EVM) works. Since October 2021, Acevedo has begun to make his work available on the blockchain, primarily on OpenSea. He will also share his knowledge about the early Digital Art scene and important Digital Art exhibitions in Los Angeles from 1983 to 2004, with a focus on the 1990s.

Ways of Worlding: Building more-than-human worlds
Artist and writer Alice Bucknell joins NFTuesdayLA to speak about her interdisciplinary worldbuilding practice, which explores interconnections of architecture, ecology, language, magic, and non-human and machine intelligence.

Recently, Bucknell was profiled in CURA Magazine’s inaugural Generational Issue as one of 40 artists shaping the landscape of the present and the future in contemporary art.
A special collection of stable diffusion hallucinations, collectively titled NEXT LA, will be released as NFTs to support the production of Bucknell’s newest project, The Alluvials.

Unsigned DTLA Billboard Showcase
In collaboration with Vellum LA and Standard Vision, NFTuesdayLA is proud to present the first public exhibition of Unsigned in the United States by Operator and Anika Meier. Unsigned is a conceptual collaborative action that directly responds to a finding by Dr. Helen Gorrill, researcher and author of Women Can’t Paint, that the addition of a signature by a woman on an artwork devalues it to the extent that “female artists are more likely to leave their work unsigned.” Unsigned is a collection of “100 signatures from women and non-binary artists created to reverse the current negative value of the signatures through their transformation into artworks themselves.” The entire collection of signatures will be featured on the large scale digital facade at the Courtyard Marriott LA Live in DTLA for a two week showcase until the end of 2022.
