Future Art Ecosystems 2: Art x Metaverse | Report Launch

Future Art Ecosystems (FAE) is an annual strategic briefing that provides analytical and conceptual tools for the construction of 21st-century cultural infrastructure: the systems that support art and advanced technologies as a whole, and respond to a broader societal agenda.

The advent of the metaverse—an always-online ‘second’ world and emerging internet megastructure—represents a fundamental shift in our notion of digital systems and physical presence. In this context, FAE2 outlines what is required from 21st century cultural infrastructure in order to shape the metaverse’s evolution.
