Eric Drasin

I am a research-based artist exploring the relationship between art and systems of value. Through emerging blockchain technologies, my current research explores digital or “distributed” processes, objects, and organizations and that problematize and reprogram fundamental assumptions about how value is constructed and disseminated. My work is rooted in media ecology and performance. Using experimental media techniques and custom software systems, my performances and installations have explored how media can transform relationship.
