Penny Rafferty: New Forms of Organisation and Decision Making

-->

For this season’s final episode of The Culture and Technology podcast we are joined by Penny Rafferty to re-think the ways we organize ourselves.

Now that the initial hype around DAOs has cooled off, Penny and Severin took the opportunity to meet in Penny’s Berlin studio to discuss what worked, what didn’t and what’s next for using blockchains and other emergent technologies as a tool for radical imagination.

GUEST

Penny Rafferty (she, her) is an independent writer and theorist based in Berlin, Germany, where she co-initiated the art collectives Omsk Social Club and Black Swan DAO. Her work stands for a social, collaborative, and open-ended, unpredictable approach to technology and advocates for putting culture before structures.

HOST

Severin Matusek is a cultural theorist and founder of co—matter, a creative studio exploring the cultural and societal impact of new technologies.

About this podcast

How is technology changing culture? From exhibition design to the performing arts, we invite leading curators, researchers, artists and cultural experts to explore how technology is shaping the future of cultural experiences and sparking new opportunities in the process.

The Culture & Technology Podcast is a virtual salon — hosted by the Vienna Business Agency together with Severin Matusek. Each conversation pairs Viennese creatives with an international expert to discuss a topic, entertain a thought and share their knowledge through conversation. 

The future of cultural experiences is up to us to create. We hope you’ll join us by subscribing to The Culture and Technology Podcast wherever you listen to podcasts.
