Sorry, I was busy right-clicking on that Beeple video and downloading the same file the person paid millions of dollars for. You can copy a digital file as many times as you want, including the art that’s included with an NFT. Could I pull off a museum heist to steal NFTs? But physical art in museums is also shockingly fragile.

What happens when a formal art museum invites a group of collaborative, participatory artists to be in residence for a year? Will the artists ruin the museum with their plant vacations and coatroom concerts? But for museum and art wonks, it could be. Will the bureaucracy of the institution drown the artists in red tape?
