Together with the curator Barbara Cueto, the six selected Web Residents will present their projects and share insights into the artistic processes developed during the residency.<\/span>\r\n\r\nWhat futures emerge when blockchains are understood not as engines of financial speculation, but as infrastructures for collective imagination? How might decentralized systems foster new forms of belonging, governance, and care? And what happens when tokens signify solidarity rather than scarcity, when protocols are designed for emancipation instead of accumulation?\r\n\r\nThe six Web Residencies projects<\/a> explore these questions and the social, aesthetic, and political potential of blockchain as a medium for worldbuilding. They range from speculative white papers and interactive experiments to living archives, and engage both more-than-human entities and diverse communities.\r\n\r\nDuring the launch, the artists will present their work through various formats, including activations and open Q&A sessions. The contributions will take place simultaneously across different breakout rooms.\r\n\r\nParticipating artists are beatnyk, Laura Fong Prosper, Rok Kranjc, Joshua Kroon, Lam Lai, and Pavan Vadgama \u2014 together with curator Barbara Cueto and Sarah Donderer.\r\n\r\nThe event will take place via Zoom. Please register by March 24, 2026,<\/span> by emailing webresidencies@akademie-solitude.de<\/a>. The access link will be sent by email.\r\n\r\nThe event will be held in English.\r\n\r\nMore information about the call and the projects:\r\nhttps:\/\/www.akademie-solitude.de\/de\/postproject\/web-residencies\/calls-2025\/polymorphic-futures\/<\/a>"},{"acf_fc_layout":"content_program","_acfe_flexible_layout_title":null,"program_title":"","program_el":[{"bgcolor":"has-bg-custom","bgcolor_custom":"rgb(207,215,249)","program_el_content_collapsible":true,"program_el_content_collapsible_init_state":false,"program_el_content_headline":"PROGRAM: THURSDAY, MARCH 26, 2026","program_el_content":[{"program_el_content_left":"02:00 PM","program_el_content_right":"Welcome and introduction by Barbara Cueto and Sarah Donderer","program_el_content_img":null},{"program_el_content_left":"02:20 PM","program_el_content_right":"Short presentation of the six Web Residents\u2019 projects","program_el_content_img":null},{"program_el_content_left":"02:50 PM","program_el_content_right":"
