The highlight of 2023, Part 2, focuses on the works and events that MASSAGE has curated over time. Despite a cooling of speculative fervor and a general slowdown, capturing the vast movements of people around the world simultaneously engaging in various endeavors and influencing each other to create culture is an immensely challenging task. To keep up with the sheer volume and pace of information, MASSAGE has been sharing and archiving what we intuitively feel is important. This might be seen as an act of recording influential events as single points in history. Finding one point leads to the discovery of another, and thus we encounter something new again. It’s been a year of continuing this cycle. In this article, we have indexed 365 topics archived through our activities, marking the end of the year. We hope that the history being woven here and now will be unraveled somewhere, sometime. We believe that our endeavors will contribute to this.
