We're excited to announce a special open edition of our monthly Web3 working group. The group explores the opportunities and challenges associated with decentralized technologies.

Sasha Stiles is a first-generation Kalmyk-American poet, artist and AI researcher widely recognized as a pioneer of generative literature and language art. ​ Her award-winning work fuses text and technology to probe what it means to be human in an increasingly posthuman era.

Stiles is author of the “instant techno classic” poetry collection, Technelegy (Black Spring Press Group, 2021), and has been named “perhaps the leading blockchain poet” by Right Click Save, as well as one of the top 10 NFT artists to watch in 2023. Her work is available via many of the world’s top platforms, including fxhash, Quantum, SuperRare, Objkt, Foundation, Nifty Gateway, Artsy, and Infinite Objects. In 2022, she became the first writer to bring AI-powered literature to a major auction house when her poem, “COMPLETION: When it’s just you,” sold at Christie’s. Other honors include a Future Art Award, nominations for the Forward Prize, Pushcart Prize and Best of the Net, and finalist status for the Christopher Smart Prize and Palette Emerging Poet Prize.

A sought-after thought leader in the arena of blockchain poetics and publishing innovation, Stiles has spoken at events and institutions including Art Basel (Switzerland), the Brooklyn Museum, SXSW, Digilogue Istanbul, Parsons The New School, Binghamton University, the University of Colorado - Boulder, the Ai4 Summit, Miami Art Week, Art Market San Francisco, Consensus, NFT NYC and NFT London, and has exhibited at venues such as Superchief Gallery NYC, SuperRare Gallery, Kunsthalle Zurich, Annka Kultys Gallery, Unit London, Galerie Brigitte Schenk, SCOPE Art Show, Art Cologne, the Museum of Contemporary Digital Art, Krasl Art Center, L’Avant Galerie Vossen, the Carousel de Louvre, CADAF Paris, Digital Art Month NYC, New York Fashion Week, the billboards of Shibuya, Tokyo, and virtual Times Square.
