This week two of DAFNE+ partners celebrated the “Blockchain & NFT Partner Symposium”. The School of Digital Arts from Manchester Metropolitan University (SODA) and the Institute of Advanced Arquitecture of Catalonia (IAAC) joined with FAB Lab BCN were in charge of organizing a two hour webinar in which to exchange impressions on a very exciting topic for the artistic and creative sector which is blockchain technology, DAOs and NFTs. Three topics that are bringing challenges to artists and designers amongst other creatives.
During the online event, that took place through DAFNE+ Discord channel, the project members had the chance to explain the DAFNE+ project as a whole. The technical partners explained to the attendants how the platform worked but also we had the opportunity to learn about licenses in the NFT space and what challenges need to be addressed.
Also, we could hear from some artistic entrepreneurships that were dealing with this new space and context. Very enriching conversations and insights were shared during this meeting.
