// Exhibition Introduction of dialog( ) //

Art and culture cannot exist independently of society. As another "artistic network moment" and part of "decentralized culture," blockchain art and NFTs have value in establishing experimental and possible complex, multidimensional social structures. They require various participants in the ecosystem to self-organize from the bottom up, giving them the same attention, support, and scale as centralized cultures. "Volume DAO" and many decentralized organizations are at such a beginning, particularly focusing on the pulse of blockchain art, generative art, and NFTs. Through exhibition planning, workshops, and educational activities, they are cultivating this new environment, community, and cultural soil bit by bit, also pollinating the emerging culture. The group sponsorship proposal "dialog( ) Asia Generative Art Exhibition" and its network aim to push this effort further.

As a brand new initiative and exhibition action, "dialog( )" is the name of the Asian generative art network jointly formed by Volume DAO, NEORT (Tokyo), AEON STUDIO (Seoul), and N POLE ART (Beijing). It symbolizes "dialogue," containing the functional meaning of "different inputs produce different outputs" and the algorithmic aesthetics of generative art. In execution and organization, it upholds the spirit of "single rule / infinite variation," allowing 40+ artists, generative art creations, and the discussions derived from them to continue to deepen in different cities and contexts. We hope that through this practice, we can weave a unique, participatory, and warm way of dialogue, so that blockchain art not only cares about its eternal and unchanging nature but can carry diverse and even subjective memories and stories. From on-chain to off-chain, from Asia to the world, it continues to have a profound impact on how people organize things—a dynamic process about rediscovery, life, and generation, constructing our imagination and creativity about networking and decentralization.

As a system, art and culture may be initiated by outstanding ideas or emerging avant-garde creativity and experiments of artists and creators. It also needs exhibitions, stages, audiences, and various participating roles like supporters, managers, critics, consumers, and collectors surrounding its growth, jointly promoted by multiple forces, thereby celebrating those things that have not yet been seen. Through "dialog( )," our mission is to build such spaces and connections, supporting art and creativity in a decentralized environment and culture. Like zines and zine festivals, independent publishing and independent publishers/bookstores, providing spotlights and stages that reach a wide audience, readers, and enthusiasts, and becoming networks for creative dissemination, display, and movement. The power of one person and one place is limited, and "dialog( )" is the "local - international" network born for this, showcasing the richness of Asian artists' creations to the world.

We still remember when we first joined blockchain art and NFTs, the spirit on Tezos's Hic Et Nunc (HEN), Objkt, and Akaswap was to allow artists, especially creators from the Global South or those not yet recognized, to build careers and create a more inclusive art world. Even though the market is far from what it was, and blockchain and generative art are gradually moving closer to centralized worlds and Western platforms, "dialog( )" still hopes to continue that initial experimental spirit and philosophy, transforming the love for generative art into the gradual engineering of building spaces. This time, we are organizing a group sponsorship on FAB DAO's "Super Guide," inviting everyone to participate in this network through decentralized small-amount sponsorship plus matching funds. In addition to directly supporting individual blockchain art and artists' creations, you can also support the practice of Volume DAO - dialog( ) Asia Generative Art Network together, unveiling and generating the path to the future, and writing history and new traditions.

We invite you to jointly nurture this burgeoning force in Asia, allowing more people to know and promote generative art together, and build future-oriented things and spaces!
