Abstract:
As the technology that powers cryptocurrencies like bitcoin, blockchains are associated with volatile and (as yet) largely unregulated financial trade, but they are also about more than money. This capacity to help automate, incentivize and authenticate global trade has numerous potential applications. Blockchain technologies promise efficient transactions, greater accountability of trade and increased/direct payment for creative enterprise. As such, despite their lingering technical challenges, these nascent technologies are already being employed within a wide variety of creative innovation processes. Based upon research into their potential applications within Scotlands digital creative industries, this study explores the ways in which these emerging technologies might disrupt digital creative industries, such as digital media production, digital art, web/interface/experience design, application development, extended reality and gaming, both in Scotland and beyond. Of particular interest are the ways that these emerging technologies might transform value exchange and intellectual property management.
