"i used to make art for humans" is our ambitious project to date, a collaboration with @5tr4n0, almost a year in the making. It started with one question: how do machines look at art, and what does that mean for artists and collectors? Here's all the info you need to know 🧵

We're excited reveal one of our most ambitious projects to date. Our research was prompted by a McKinley study stating that by 2030, 50% of online transactions would be facilitated by agents. That made us realize an important question - how do machines view art and what does it mean for artists & collectors? As the research progressed, we quickly found ourselves wanting to bring this to life as a participatory experiment. So we started architecting out a system of artworks that would act as the machine-to-human interface for agents that review art. Our first chat was with @5tr4n0 who immediately understood what we were looking for. He showed us w0rms and we fell in love with the hand-drawn artwork, bringing humanity to our machine-oriented research. For the past 6 months, Strano has been working incredibly hard on the w0rms collection and we're so excited for people to see them. "i used to make art for humans" is coming October 15.
