   Celebrating Black Creators with AR NFTs | Asad J Malik, Jadu AR

   Did you know that much of internet culture, including your favorite viral dance trends, came from black creators? In this special Juneteenth episode Jadu AR Founder, Asad J Malik (https://www.linkedin.com/in/asadjmalik/), and Isaiah Chavous (https://www.linkedin.com/in/isaiahchavous/) share how they immortalized the 3 original creators (https://opensea.io/collection/jadu-holograms)of The Renegade (Jalaiah Harmon (https://www.instagram.com/jalaiah/?hl=en)), Throw it Back (Cookie Kawaii (https://www.instagram.com/cookieekawaii/?hl=en)), and The Git Up (Blanco Brown (https://www.blancobrown.com/welcome/)) dances with NFTs and holograms. We discuss how interactive digital assets can lead to “a creative chaos” and help change the way content is credited and consumed. (3:16) Everyone knows the Throw it Back, but no one knows Cookie Kawaii who literally made the song. (5:09) “Do you think NFTs can become the standard of ownership of digital goods?” (8:57) Black culture has been exploited in all areas specifically when it comes to dance and music (15:05) The permission-less nature of the blockchain and the interoperability that comes with it allows new companies to compete with larger centralized platforms. (18:30) When assets from various virtual worlds can interact with each other, it will lead to “a creative chaos”. (20:50) NFTs need to have some weight, not just artificial scarcity. (21:05 ) What's really exciting is the collaborative culture that's emerging in this space. Centralized control of content is the opposite of the future we’re working towards. (25:35) Mainstream articles may proclaim NFTs dead. But the NFT boom inspired many new people, companies, and projects the results of which we will see in next three or four years. This episode is brought to you by our friends at SeekXR (https://www.seekxr.com/) who create, manage, and deploy 3D assets anywhere in the Metaverse. View the 3 AR NFTs on Opensea (https://opensea.io/collection/jadu-holograms), read Taylor Lorenz’ NYT article about Jalaiah Harmon “The Original Renegade” (https://www.nytimes.com/2020/02/13/style/the-original-renegade.html), and learn more about Jadu AR on their website.

   What is Crypto Fashion? | Anthony Day, IBM

   Since Martine Jarlgaard (https://www.linkedin.com/in/ACoAAABXJEUBTQaJeoC2bqqMsSrfD9QJO-EjAlk) first tracked the lifecycle of a garment in 2018, blockchain technology has grown in relevance. In this episode our guest Anthony Day (https://www.linkedin.com/in/anthonyjjday/) explains crypto fashion and it's power to transform the fashion industry. Anthony is the Blockchain Leader at IBM (https://www.ibm.com/) and host of the Blockchain Won’t Save the World Podcast (//www.blockchainwontsavethe.world) where he helps non-experts understand the value of blockchain and shares inspiring stores of people and companies who are creating real change in the world with exponential technologies. (3:42) Does fashion really need crypto? And if it does, what can it be used for? (9:09) How can the fashion industry use tokens to get people interested in monetizing their own creative assets? (18:10) How can blockchain help surface information that actually matters to consumers? (21:30) As an artist, you don't have to be dead anymore to have your content valued. (22:08) In the right context, someone out there may value digital shoes just as highly as a pair of Michael Jordan sneakers. (22:36) How can blockchain technology be adapted by a wider audience outside of the crypto community and gamers? (24:25) As you digitize, you reduce cost and democratize participation. Which means that anybody - everywhere - can participate. (25:34) We mask the value of what we're creating by using jargon. (28:13) How has a common understanding around NFTs helped advance blockchain?
