Justin O'Connor is a Professor of Cultural Economy at the University of South Australia. In this episode, we talk about his new book, 'Culture Is Not an Industry: Reclaiming Art and Culture for the Common Good'. Justin explains how theoretically poor the concept of the 'creative industry' actually is, and how it has messed up cultural policy in many countries. We then talk about an alternative policy vision: art and culture as a common good, anchored in the foundational economy.

Art in Permacrisis #6: Inte Gloerich and Decentralised Autonomous Organisations
Inte Gloerich is a critical media and technology researcher, and a colleague at the Institute of Network Cultures. She is one of the core people behind the research community MoneyLab. Inte also just finished a PhD on feminist blockchain imaginaries. We discuss blockchain beyond the hype, and beyond the wish to get rich fast. How can blockchain be a tool for radical imagination and decentralised autonomous organising in the arts? We discuss concepts and dilemma's, and briefly revisit what's left of the NFT boom, but we mainly dive into the practices of contemporary DAOs, from Dayra, to Black Swan, The Sphere, Circles, and CultureStake. What works? What doesn't work? How? And why?
Art in Permacrisis is a podcast of the Institute of Network Cultures and Caradt on the organization of art workers in the face of the ever-growing stack of crises. It is hosted by Sepp Eckenhaussen with tech support by Tommaso Campagna. This episode was edited by Salome Berdzenishvili.
