The National Arts Club on March 6th held a very special event on content creation, free speech, and the future of a decentralized Internet.
Gathering of the Minds: Content Creation, Free Speech, Future of a Decentralized Internet
As the world gets more connected, a paradigm shift is occurring in media. People are changing what they watch, and increasingly they are turning to independent video creators. These video creators exhibit a very diverse set of opinions, but they have a shared belief in the sanctity of freedom of speech & expression. Established institutions are threatened - traditional and social media giants are losing their audiences and revenue. Some countries are reacting with 1984-style censorship.
What does it take to be a fearless, engaging creator in this environment? In Part 2 of the discussion, we’ll focus on the role blockchain technology may play in the decentralization of social networks, and its ability to avert censorship and empower creators to fully express themselves.
