Collectivus

Computation, Consciousness, and Collective Memory

The Field by Beervanger

Rooted in the Latin “collēctīvus,” the word “collective” represents the notion of togetherness, a gathering of individuals, and a shared experience. This ethos forms the heart of “Collēctīvus: Computation, Consciousness, and Collective Memory,” an exhibition that unfolds the power of collective curation. These seven projects, selected from a range of artworks released on the Art Blocks platform over the past year, use computation as a medium to explore ideas of collective unconscious, the personal and universal concept of memory, and the interplay of natural and digital forms.

Collēctīvus

Through collective participation, community members will “like” their favorite tokens in the Collēctīvus: Computation, Consciousness, and Collective Memory Deca gallery from each project that community members themselves have made available to loan for display. The most-liked mints from each project will become part of the exhibition, embodying the collective ideals of our vibrant ecosystem of creators and collectors. This democratic approach forms a time capsule, capturing the collective preferences and tastes of this specific moment in time.

Here's how you can participate in the collective curation process:
