Foster Edition 3: Several People Are Typing is an exploration of the creative potential of collaborations in the age of decentralized media. Featuring a diverse range of contributors and perspectives, the 16 original stories and essays in this issue paint a vivid picture of the possibilities the expanding universe of onchain media enables.
Produced during a moment where the media business models of the past 20 years continue to fail spectacularly, this issue offers up a hopeful alternative that relies upon community and networks for proliferation rather than centralized platforms.
We hope this mind-expanding work will serve as an artifact and reference point for future pioneers in onchain media. Over 100 writers and editors contributed to this work, making it the largest-scale media collaboration on Metalabel.
Earlier this week, Refraction and Jimmy Edgar offered a 24-hour open edition of an early version of his work ‘Monument'.’ 100% of sales and secondary splits went to the Refraction treasury. This piece is part Jimmy Edgar’s upcoming Miami exhibition this October.
‘Monument’ is a testament to the Obelisk in culture. The work reimagines what these objects might look like in the future — and speaks to the current state of digital objects today.
