This afternoon we enter a Live Action Role Play as a cast of crypto
billionaires establishing infrastructure and communities on four islands with
swooning palm trees, sandy beaches and lack of governmental constraints or tax
laws... @furtherfield #DAOWO
This series brings together artists, musicians, technologists, engineers, and
theorists to join forces in the interrogation and production of new blockchain
technologies.
What Will It Be Like When We Buy An Island (on the Blockchain)? is the fifth
event in the DAOWO blockchain laboratory and debate series for reinventing the
arts.

In previous workshops we have explored developments in the arts ecosystem,
impacts on identity, and the complex considerations around "doing good" on the
blockchain.
In this Live Action Role Play we embody the values and beliefs of a cast of
crypto billionaires to establish infrastructure, communities and culture on
four islands, made attractive by their swooning palm trees, sandy beaches and
lack of governmental constraints or tax laws.
We join our four islands at pivotal stages in their historic progress.
Fabricating the evolution of their communities from real-world events,
tendencies and possibilities we will endeavor to establish autonomous worlds
whose governance systems and infrastructures give full expression to our shared
dreams and nightmares.
We set out with four communities to their islands with just hopes and dreams.
After a year, their problem solving mettle has been tested by unexpected
pressures and challenges. Each participant in the LARP takes a position on the
‘board’, established to resolve problems, conflicts and issues encountered by
the crypto-islanders. We next join them at the celebration of the 50th year
anniversary of the island’s founding to discover what kind of equilibrium has
been reached and how has the island treated them.
Finally future theologists explore the significance of the four 2000 year old
‘White Papers’ recently retrieved from the museum vaults. What can they tell us
about the genesis stories of the islands and exactly what has happened to those
societies?
This workshop is devised by Ed Fornieles with Ben Vickers and Ruth Catlow.
