NFT, Beeple, and Digital art – Part 1

A GENERAL INTRODUCTION

We will be looking at NFT’s from an art historical framework. We sadly lost the first podcast and had to retake the first part and lost a lot of extra discussions we have had. We apologise if this version seems a bit more compact, there was so much to share!

In part two we will be joined by Dennis and look more into the art historic canon.

Enjoy!
