Tallinn University’s Baltic Film, Media and Arts School organises a symposium to investigate both the existing visions for and the real-world endeavours and practices of using blockchains in the media and cultural industries. The symposium, which will take place on 23–24 May (in Tallinn), invites empirical as well as theoretical contributions that focus on the value of blockchains as specific technologies for data governance in the media industries. What value is being pursued/sought, who is creating value, who is extracting it and who is governing the exchange of that created value?
The symposium’s keynote talk will be provided by Professor Ellie Rennie (RMIT University) and select industry experts.
