CURAT3D: Ruben Wu - Redefining Artistic Narratives, Collaborations with Machine, and Crypto-Native Artwork

SHILLR

Join us on an enlightening journey as we sit down with Ruben Wu, the multi-talented artist who's weaving technology, space, and time into one-of-a-kind narratives you won't want to miss. From his journey in the band Ladytron to his innovative approach to art, Ruben offers a fresh perspective on the fusion of music and imagery. We'll discuss the power of visual language, how it allows artists to express their individuality, and why it’s more than just a stylistic choice.
Ever wondered about the role of AI in art? We tackle this topic head-on with a riveting conversation about the collaboration between our Reuben and AI artist Jenni Pasanen. We explore potential outcomes when human creativity meets AI abilities, hinting at a future where technology and creativity aren't just side-by-side—they're intertwined. Our dialogue extends further into the realm of digital art and its evolution, examining the innate human desire for physical representation and the ways technology can satisfy this longing.
We save one of the hottest topics for last - NFTs. Their impact on the art world has been profound, and we dive into how they create unprecedented opportunities for artists and collectors. We explore whether an artwork is considered crypto-native or not and how NFTs can enhance the provenance aspect in art. As we close our chat, we reflect on the dynamic landscape of the art world, the online creative community and the transformation of the NFT community into a more welcoming space. Tune in and get ready for a stimulating discussion at the intersection of art, technology, and innovation.
