Cypherpunk revisited with Paul S & Max
26—27th September | 14:00-18:00 

 In this 2-day (4h) workshop, we want to give a theoretical and practical introduction to cypherpunk. We'll do this by combining technical activities with critical reading and discussion of historical key texts (Tim May, Jude Milhon, Mondo 2000, etc.) as well as contemporary texts. On each day, we will hold a communal discussion of varios seminal texts, focusing on the historical moment in which it was written and what it was reacting to, in order to more deeply understand and place the text in a realistic context, as well as to discuss the political and social ramifications of how it engages with technology as a liberatory force. We will complement this with various hands-on sessions that we'll all take part in, though participants can choose where to focus. These include: self-hosting collective document infrastructure, calendars, email servers, VPNs and mixnets, alternative phone operating systems, zero-knowledge cryptographic systems, anonymous payment systems / on-ramps, how to "vibecode" with privacy. We also highly encourage people to bring their own old android device, which we can flash with privacy-preserving operating systems.

Cipher is an encrypted generative art protocol. Each work encodes a set of rules governing simple agents, verifiably encrypted and accessible only to its current owner. Transfer requires decryption and re-encryption. With each new owner comes the right to modify one parameter, altering the generative output and extending the work's visual lineage.

If you already own one of my digital works, you will receive an automatic discount. The Token 1-4 are only available in combination with a physical work @nageldraxler . Cipher is supported by JUST Open Source. (Photo: Simon Vogel) by @pppppppppaul

Temporal Secessionism Timezones (partly with Max Hampshire and Amy Ireland):

"In a monolithic terminal reminiscent of public information displays, Temporal Secessionism investigates alternative systems of timekeeping, as opposed to the Coordinated Universal Time (UTC) used in our everyday lives. Building on previous iterations that explore divergent temporal regimes - from broken quartz crystal frequencies (“healing time”) to Google’s consensus algorithms (“machine time”) and blockchain rhythms (“energy time”)."

Solo Exhibition
PAUL SEIDLER

“Nightmarket”

Exhibition: February 21 – April 18, 2026
Nagel Draxler Kabinett

The art market, and more specifically the digital art market – as the various places where artists, gallery owners, and buyers come together – can be described as an “informal market” (Isabelle Graw, 2008. Der große Preis: Kunst zwischen Markt und Celebrity Culture, 66). Informal markets often exhibit characteristics that correspond to the precarious economic conditions of art production. However, with the emergence of non-fungible tokens (NFTs), it became apparent that the overriding logic of traditional art markets was not wholly compatible with digital works. As a result, the primary and secondary markets for contemporary digital art differ fundamentally in structure from established art markets. In its infancy, the price and volume of primary sales of NFTs were too low to be of interest to commercial enterprises. During this period, artists typically created their own bespoke interfaces, tooling and websites where buyers could purchase and mint their NFTs. These early forms established a small but significant alternative to the gallery system for digital works, forging parallel distribution mechanisms and channels while enabling new spaces for critical discourse.

Paul Seidler is an artist, researcher and programmer based in Berlin, whose work traverses networks. Since 2015, he has been working with blockchain-based technologies to investigate questions of value, ownership and encryption. Seidler is recognized as one of the founding members of terra0, a collective committed to developing hybrid ecosystems within the technosphere. His work has been featured in prominent exhibitions and discussions, including the 7th Athens Biennale, Schinkel Pavilion, Transmediale, the 58th Carnegie International, and KW Institute for Contemporary Art.

Happy to present a project at artweek opening i spend a lot of time in the last months:

The beecoin project is an experiment in recoding the community as organisation – one in which our relationship with bees is symbiotically reinforced and the relations of our shared environments reconfigured. Open-source sensoring kits generate data from bee hives and a crypto-economic system redefines the inherent value of the reproduction of colonies. This project invites anyone to become a vanguard beekeeper, DAOist shareholder or simply a curious supporter. taken in Haus der Statistik by @pppppppppaul
