Ann Hirsch’s ‘Sacra Famiglia’ Puts a Surreal AI Spin on Suburbia

What looks like a normal southern California home is nothing but in artist Ann Hirsch’s newest digital exhibit, “Sacra Famiglia.” Clicking through the opening credits and entering the home’s foyer, guests are greeted by images of rather standard suburban living. A picture of a young girl sitting with her father and two children; one sitting in a yellow bucket, the other sprawled out in a purple dress. But skip past the foyer and into the den, and the images take an odd turn. In one home photo, a…

Musée d’Orsay Embraces NFTs in Push to Reach New Audiences

It was 2021, and the Musée d’Orsay had a problem. The Parisian museum, which boasts the largest collection of Impressionist and Post-Impressionist masterpieces in the world, was struggling to attract visitors amid the seesaw uncertainty of Covid lockdowns. Some museum staff felt assured that the French people’s commitment to cultural enlightenment would prevail, and museum attendance would soon return to pre-pandemic levels. But the doors were open—and huge crowds hadn’t turned up. “French peop…

‘Bottle Shock’ Film Director Plots Animated Musical Remake—Funded by NFTs

Randall Miller has directed 12 movies. The most famous of those is probably “Bottle Shock,” the 2008 indie starring Alan Rickman and Chris Pine that gained cult popularity in the wine world for its dramatization of the “Judgment of Paris”—the famed 1976 occasion on which California wines defeated their French counterparts in a blind taste test. The most infamous is certainly “Midnight Rider,” an unfinished biopic Miller directed about the singer Gregg Allman. In 2014, on the first day of filming…
