Harm van den Dorpel - Event Listeners

Event Listeners

Le Random Logo

Event Listeners is a procedural system that creates line-based compositions overlayed with texts iterating on social relations. The series marked a historical moment between digital art and cryptocurrencies when the Museum for Applied Arts purchased editions with Bitcoin in 2015, marking it as the first artwork to be acquired by a museum with crypto. In 2022, Phillip’s would auction an edition during the Ex-Machina: A History of Generative Art sale, featured alongside artists such as Georg Nees, Frieder Nake, Gottfried Jäger, Vera Molnár, and other iconic generative artists.
