What is an NFT and how do they work?

Join our panel as we discuss this fast-moving technology that may revolutionise how things work in the future for digital spaces and places, and how NFTs - non-fungible tokens - may impact intellectual property and copyright.

What is the role of NFT in the modern world?
What are the benefits of an NFT?
Can the physical and the digital co-exist?

We will delve into the Metaverse, VR, AR, ethics and potential pitfalls, how to make and buy NFTs, what is a clean NFT, and how to mint a collection.

We will also discuss the recent success of the Australia Open Metaverse.

Talk has been especially conceived by the DIA to be an informative session for all artists and designers!
