Description: On the ninth episode of our “How to Raise a Venture Fund” series, we're joined by Adrian Bührer, co-founder and Managing Partner of Übermorgen Ventures, an early-stage Climate Focused fund. Adrian previously founded students.ch which he ultimately sold to Axel Springer. He was also a prolific angel investor before he decided to set up Übermorgen Ventures alongside 3 partners. Founded in 2019 Übermorgen Ventures, was one of the first Climate Focused venture funds in Europe and boasts a unique structure as an investment company rather than a traditional fund. During his conversation with Danielle and Francesca, Adrian discusses the challenges inherent in raising the fund. He covers why they chose to create an evergreen dividend-paying company instead of a typical venture fund as well as the difficulties they faced in attracting investors who were unfamiliar with their structure and investment thesis. Adrian also shares details about Ubermorgen's approach to raising capital, including building a CRM of over 1,000 potential limited partners. Whether you're an emerging fund manager or an LP interested in investing in a venture fund, this episode is a must-listen. Adrian's insights and experiences are invaluable for anyone looking to navigate the fundraising process successfully. Listen here to learn how to raise a venture fund from someone who's actually done it!
In this podcast, Claudia Terpstra explains The Real Time Money Markets Liquidity Platform Ubermorgen for Rabobank, and Martijn Siebrand elaborates on the tokenized assets for ABN AMRO. Claudia explains that what Rabobank is trying to achieve is real time settlement for commercial paper. Commercial paper is a short term debt instrument that is traded on the financial markets. In the podcast she explains how they have been working on this since 2018, when it was still too complicated to achieve. The solution was a hybrid concept where blockchain is used to distribute data, so settlement times can be increased for this particular financial instrument. In short this means that trade dates could be taken down from 2 days to approximately 30 minutes. Martijn goes into the shift from centralized finance to decentralized finance. Currently, ABN AMRO is focusing on tokenized securities. Tokenized assets are real world assets, tangible or intangible becoming digitized, converted into tokens and stored on the blockchain. Tokenized assets could have multiple benefits, such as instant settlement and better readability. Listen to the rest of the podcast for a more in-depth explanation about the concept of Ubermorgen and tokenized assets.

What does artistic resistance look like in the twenty-first century, when disruption and dissent have been co-opted and commodified in ways that reinforce dominant systems? In The Play in the System: The Art of Parasitical Resistance (Duke UP, 2020), Anna Watkins Fisher locates the possibility for resistance in artists who embrace parasitism, a tactic of complicity that effect subversion from within hegemonic structures. Anna Watkins Fisher speaks to Pierre d'Alancaisez about the underhand tactics of the parasite - artists like the collective Ubermorgen, Núria Güell, the writer Chris Krauss, or Roisin Byrne - by which it appropriates the logic of their hosts - Amazon, the Spanish State, Dick, and in the case of Byrne, Watkins Fisher herself.

In the second episode of ‘Octopus’, lizvlx aka Liz Haas, Sam Hopkins and Hans Bernhard talk broadly and widely about the art market. With a focus on new technologies and potential new distribution strategies they discuss how the murky and opaque world of art dealing negotiates visions and techniques of transparency such as Blockchain? On a further level, they reflect and report on how artists like UBERMORGEN experiment with the surveillance capitalist tools of the Internet and how do they explore new models of producing and thinking about art.

TRUTH-TELLERS: The Impact of Speaking Out. The 10th event of the Disruption Network Lab. Panel: Beyond Evidence. Finding Sources, Questioning Truth with Jack Werner (investigative journalist, SE), Hans Bernhard / UBERMORGEN (artist, CH/USA/AT) Carmen Weisskopf and Domagoj Smoljo / !Mediengruppe Bitnik (artists, CH/DE). Moderated by Tatiana Bazzichelli (Director of the Disruption Network Lab, IT/DE). If we consider truth-telling as the act of providing clear facts and evidence, which is a keen discourse within whistleblowing, what happens if we question the concept of truth itself, by analysing how Internet culture works? The challenge becomes to investigate those obscure parts of the Internet that are fed by "fakelore" (as a combination of fake, and folklore), as well as artistic projects that question a single perspective of understanding and bring along multiple truths. Hans Bernhard, co-founder of the artist project UBERMORGEN together with lizvlx, will tell us about the (true or false?) stories of discovering whistle-blower Edward Snowden at the Vienna International Airport escaping from Hong Kong, as well as Facts, Truth, Fake, and consensual hallucinations; Carmen Weisskopf and Domagoj Smoljo /!Mediengruppe Bitnik will present, among others, their project “Delivery for Mr. Assange” as a SYSTEM_TEST and a Live Mail Art Piece broadcasted in the Internet through a camera, as well as other projects about the hidden side of the Internet. Finally, investigative journalist Jack Werner, author of the book Creepypasta: Ghost stories from the Internet (2014), will open up the discourse to “fakelore”, by discussing the impact of viral storytelling and source trust in online journalism and culture. www.disruptionlab.org/truth-tellers (http://www.disruptionlab.org/truth-tellers) Photo: Maria Silvano Produced by Voice Republic For more podcasts visit http://voicerepublic.com
Wie Internetkünstler Trolling taktisch einsetzen, am Beispiel von Tobias Leingruber, Jodi, UBERMORGEN, und meiner Wenigkeit. http://frab.trollcon.de/trollcon2012/public/events/19 http://www.trollcon.de Die Trollcon ist eine jährliche Konferenz über das Kulturgut "Trollen" und wird ausgerichtet vom Mannheimer Hackerspace RaumZeitLabor (http://www.raumzeitlabor.de)
