While at Devcon 2024 I spoke to Sarah Friend,an artist and software developer from Canada and based in Berlin. In 2023, she was a research fellow at Summer of Protocols, led by Venkatesh Rao and the Ethereum Foundation, studying the death of protocols and published a paper on "Good Death".We discussed her findings in her research on how and when protocols are considered dead, how different human cultures view death and the silliness behind the longevity movement.If you want to listen to my review of Devcon 2024, check it out here.If you liked the podcast be sure to give it a review on your preferred podcast platform.
