How do you collect digital art?

What is digital art and how do you collect it? In this episode we explore the world of digital art: what it is, how it's evolving, the role of technologies such as Web3, and the future of art collecting. We also discuss the role that art hubs, such as Hong Kong, play in the development of digital art and supporting creators. We follow a slightly different format for this episode. It was a live panel discussion done in collaboration between us and Cyberport, Hong Kong’s leading technology and entrepreneurship incubator, as part of their Web3 dialogue series. We gathered representatives from the creator, community, and gallery space including: Danny Casale, creator of @coolman and Coolman’s Universe in Web3, Christopher Tang, CEO of Quam Wealth Group and SHOUT Factory, and Vita Hederson-Chan, Founder of Star-Kin and Head of Arts and Culture AllStarsWomen DAO.

All I Want For Christmas is Web3!

It’s Christmas time and you know what that means? An endless loop of “All I Want For Christmas is You” by Mariah Carey. As one of the most iconic holiday songs, how has Mariah Carey financially benefited from this song over the last 29 years? We use this song to look at how the music industry has changed from the 1990s to today. How have music distribution, compensation, and consumption changed over the last almost 30 years? And why we believe Mariah Carey, and new artists more generally, should adopt Web3 technology if they were to release music today.
