We are proud to present [a series of 5 videos](/brody-condon) by artist [Brody Condon](/brody-condon), recorded in 2014. 

The Berlin based artist (b. Mexico 1974) often facilitates and documents game-like group encounters that experientially probe dissociative phenomena. His work is best known for its early influence on re-purposing computer games and LARP techniques ([Wikipedia](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Brody_Condon)).

Condon's work has been widely exhibited internationally, and been acquired by public collections such as the Stedelijk Museum Amsterdam, Los Angeles County Museum of Art, Albright-Knox Gallery, and the Kadist Foundation.

The 5 video works are each available in an edition of [3 non-fungible Ethereum tokens](https://left.gallery/work/evp-amie). These tokens are progressively priced: respectively 0.5, 1.0, and 2.0 ether, and sold on a [first-come, first-served basis](https://left.gallery/work/possession-janet) (no auction).

We like to thank our friends at [Folia](https://www.folia.app/) and Alberto Granzotto for their support.
