Curatorial Governance: An Interview with Tony Lashley
- Any one single source of truth to define expertise is not going to work — you're going to need to pull it in from multiple places to really capture what it means to be an expert. I think Web3 presents a really interesting opportunity because it's decentralized.

- I don't think we're going to enter a world where any one way wins the day. But I think we are starting to wake up to the contemporary over-indexing towards the voice of the crowd, when it comes to the distillation of that being an algorithmic culture and understanding.

- synthesis is going to continue to be the name of the game. In the grand arc of history, compared to the past, the crowd will continue to get more power. But in the recent arc of internet history, I actually think experts are going to get more power, but it's just going to be a different type of expert. It’s going to be an expert through the proving... See more

- You can have a corporate brand, even, and still stand for something. I think there's going to be a mixing of expert opinion and the voice of the crowd in the curation of an ideal festival. And if you can state a set of values that comes from experts and then use the voice of the crowd to find the examples of things that align with those values, I t... See more
