    Establishing Provenance and IP in Human–AI Filmmaking: A Conversation with Asa Bailey

    Culture & Code speaks with Asa Bailey, founder of Bailey Creative Group and the architect behind the Digital Acquisition Verification Engine (DAVE). Specially designed for filmmakers bringing AI into their workflows, the DAVE system automatically tracks creative human inputs and AI inputs side by side, documenting provenance and providing an audit trail filmmakers need to turn creative ideas and performances into protected, monetizable IP. From live-action shoots to AI-generated scenes, Bailey shows how to use technology to lock in authorship and ownership in real time. We cover virtual production workflows, copyright life before and after Gen AI, plus the shift toward entertainment properties built as living, expandable worlds more than discrete titles or volumes. Essential listening for creators and technologists shaping the future of storytelling and intellectual property.

    AI Storytelling: From Manifesto to Movement 2025

    In August 2023, Culture & Code launched with a manifesto declaring AI as a new creative medium. Two years later, we examine what predictions came true and what surprised us. Drawing parallels between AI creativity and the underground music scenes that birthed hip-hop and electronic music, we explore why AI storytelling feels like punk rock—raw, accessible, hated by establishments, and unstoppable. We dive into the concept of "creative democracy," the hard truth that democratizing creation doesn't guarantee audiences, and why the real scarcity in AI media is taste, trust, and community. Plus insights on building creative scenes through the Seattle AI Film Festival and practical advice for creators and organizations navigating this technological shift.
