Pretty proud to present to the world my 3rd album, We Cut Keys 2, been a labor of love and I’m so thankful to everyone that has supported me through this. We had a blast playing it at the listening party yesterday. Enjoy and share! #wecutkeys2

the era of simple narratives is over

@amix3k Hi Amir. i like your work. let me know if you'd like to connect. no agenda.

@mustafasuleymn What will be illuminating is the aspects of art, music and creativity that are hardest to attain. We may be surprised by what is easily replicable, and similarly by what is not.

truth is, for better or worse, across all dimensions, human capabilities are very much a fixed, achievable target. you have to first accept what's coming, to then be able to prepare for it.

for decades people claimed there's something unique, unreachable about human capabilities, whether it was creativity, planning, imagination, empathy and so on yet steadily AI keeps catching up.

Beyond the hype and imperfections, blockchain technology is a powerful tool for human coordination. Kickstarter is embracing it in a way that — even 6 months ago — I didn’t understand was possible. We explain here: kickstarter.com/articles/the-f…

Kickstarter going “decentralized” and help launch “an open source protocol that will essentially create a decentralized version of Kickstarter’s core functionality. This will live on a public blockchain” @perrychen @Kickstarter kickstarter.com/articles/the-f…

@conlan perry from kickstarter here. curious to play w async. lmk if you're down to chat. congrats on a great start.

They’ve lived here for hundreds of years, the descendants of enslaved Africans, fishing and farming a verdant paradise where land meets sea along Brazil’s north coast. For most of that history, the outside world had left them alone. Then came the Space Age washingtonpost.com/world/interact…

Now live! My new show, Perpetual Novelty, exhibited by Nature Morte: viewingroom.naturemorte.com/perpetualnovel… I explore the idea that more than any specific challenges — covid, A.I., gene editing — it’s the increasing complexity of our world that we must learn to negotiate.

Join @perrychen, #artist and founder of @kickstarter in conversation with Monica Narula from @raqsmediacollective on @jlflitfest

“Perry Chen’s work as an artist, like the technologies it explores, often answers questions in ways that give rise to more questions.” - @BOMBmagazine We're pleased to announce an #exhibition with @perrychen, an #artist and founder of @kickstarter. Coming soon #NMViewingRoom

Also, in preparation for the show I completely overhauled my neglected site perrychenstudio.com and added new projects, including *Significant Exchange, 2020* — a giving ritual in the time of Covid.

Happy to announce I have a new show — *Perpetual Novelty* — coming v soon to @NatureMorte gallery in New Delhi, with a full virtual exhibit for viewing anywhere. More to come.
