Experimental digital artist Karen Frances Eng (aka oculardelusion in the cryptoart world) uses a variety of digital tools and chance processes to explore and express dreams and states of consciousness in a surreal, organic style often bordering on psychedelic. She also creates ambitious town-scale mixed-reality public art projects – including large-scale projections on medieval buildings, hacking fictional narratives into people's daily lives in cinemas and in print, interactive AR/VR installations, and more. Her toolkit includes VR, AR, AI, and live animated projection. She believes in art as a catalyst for innovation, cooperation and creating communities. Founding member of WOCA, and cofounder of the 105 Collective and Web3 publishing site The Platform.

Cryptoart: NFT Art and Artists in the Digital Wild
As an art movement, cryptoart – as distinct from other NFT applications – is unique in its integration of blockchain not only as a way to establish provenance, value and tradeability for digital artists but also adds dimension as a medium in itself. Hear UK-based cryptoartists Stina Jones, Lapin Mignon, Silje Thorn & Karen Frances Eng (aka oculardelusion) – all founding members of WOCA (Women of Cryptoart) – as they demonstrate the interplays between technology and their art, both as individuals and in their many international collaborations. Moderated by collector, advisor, and WOCA co-founder Charmaine Short (ettaverse), aka Bitcoin Madame.
