Jointly
housed between the college of Design, Architecture, Art, and Planning
and the Kautz-Uible Cryptoeconomics Lab, the NFT Media Lab at the
University of Cincinnati focuses on the history, function, and creation
of artworks that exists within the framework of myriad online systems
and networks that comprise the online NFT media space. Our aim is to
spearhead NFT initiatives at the University of Cincinnati with a special
focus in the production of visual media, online experiences, and
educational initiatives while
addressing issues of intellectual property, creative rights, new
creative business models, and materiality--new materials in the
practices of design, architecture, art and planning.
Current
and upcoming projects include the student-run NFT Art Space - The
Prospect Gallery, a new course for the creation, minting, and
dissemination of NFT works, Art, Design, and the NFT as well as pending
international partnerships.
