these 7000 oaks do not exist , 2021

Patrick Lichty is a pioneering digital media artist and activist who has worked with the collectives RTMark, Pocha Nostra, The Yes Men, Terminal Time, Second Front, Shared Universe, and Critical Art Ensemble--showing in Venice Biennales and Whitney Biennials. His writings on VR, AR, and media culture are widely published, and for 10 years he was Editor in Chief of Media Arts Journal Intelligent Agent, published by Christiane Paul (Adjunct Curator, Whitney Museum).

Lichty uses artificial intelligence to reflect on the environmental message of Joseph Beuys' 7000 Oaks project (40th anniversary next year) and its applicability to the present-day concern of blockchain energy usage.
