Top 3 Reasons why you should read this if you're a Cultural Creator.

Sebastian Pech's article for the Northwestern University's Journal of Technology and Intellectual Property is a must read for anyone interested in how blockchains can and most likely will be used to unravel the complexities surrounding the cataloging, tracking, protection and enforcement of copyrights.

Reason Number 1:  Copyright laws are already changing, and this article explains why.        

As an artist and as a content administrator , I spend a fair amount of time (understated) deep diving into this subject. It's rare that I find a single article that so directly explains and details the evolving state of technology and it's impact on existing law. Nice work Sebastian!

Reason Number 2:   You'll be better able to hold a conversation about Blockchain tech and how it can serve intellectual property rights.        

This article is for anyone at any level of understanding that is interested in copyright and blockchain technology. I'm interested in what your thoughts are, so please post in the comments.

Reason Number 3:  Find out why there are some real logistical hurdles to implemetation        

In closing, I personally learn best by doing. I've released my own art as NFTs, as CD's and as freely sharable MP3s. I've helped a lot of other artists do the same. Along the way I've grown to not fear the changes in copyrights, but to embrace the diversity. From all rights reserved to some rights reserved to open culture and public domain, we as creators get to choose how we share and what we share. Technology is making it faster and easier to publish our creations. Sebastian's article will bring you up to speed for what comes next.
