CCBT Meetup, which offers opportunities to learn widely about art, technology, and design, launches a new series exploring Web 3.0 and creativity. The first event considers the technological innovation of NFTs and their impact on the art scene through case studies from around the world with leading Web 3.0 thinkers.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n

Web 3.0 is the idea of a new stage in the World Wide Web that emphasizes the decentralizing of data to individuals through blockchain technologies. Besides the implications for finance, machine learning, and artificial intelligence, the arrival of an internet in which users share, management and utilize data themselves has garnered attention in the art world due to the possibilities offered by non-fungible tokens and the metaverse.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

This event brings experts and creatives together to reflect on the technological and social contexts to Web 3.0 as well as the future of art and creative expression that it enables. The acceleration of globalization and Web 3.0 will usher in many changes to the art market and the value of artworks, and the ways in which individuals create and disseminate their work is set to increasingly diversify.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The inaugural edition of this series features three guest speakers who have played leading roles in the spread of NFTS in the art scene. They will discuss their projects and examples from around the world, shedding light on what makes NFTs so technologically innovative and the effects they are having on artists.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
