However, there are also many concerns about the legitimacy and security of NFTs and cryptocurrencies. Because NFTs and cryptocurrencies exist exclusively in the digital space, some argue that they have no real value and are particularly vulnerable to scams. Some also express concerns about their lack of regulation and potential role in crimes like money laundering. However, proponents of these digital assets assert that they create more democratic methods of investment, since anyone can buy NFTs and cryptocurrencies, and they are not controlled by a central authority. This volume explains this complex topic and offers various viewpoints on the benefits and disadvantages of these assets"--Provided by publisher.

Murakami : unfamiliar people, swelling of monsterized human ego / by Allen, Laura W.,editor.(CARDINAL)899271; Ikegami, Hiroko,1947-author.(CARDINAL)899272; Murakami, Takashi,1962-artist.(CARDINAL)223419; Shiba, Masako,author.; Xu, Jay,foreword.(CARDINAL)273653; Asian Art Museum of San Francisco,organizer,host institution.(CARDINAL)137339;
Includes bibliographical references."One of Japan's leading contemporary artists, Takashi Murakami's work has been distinguished by a wide-ranging practice that encompasses not only fine art, but fashion, consumer products, curation, and entertainment. As founder of the Superflat movement, Murakami's artworks are larger than life, boldly colored, and buoyant, with a pop sensibility that draws inspiration from anime and manga. His familiar happy flowers and kawaii characters have become branded icons for the artist's production and management company, Kaikai Kiki, Ltd. Beyond the cheerful images that have defined Murakami's career lurk darker manifestations-the sharp-toothed, multi-eyed monsters that have increasingly become this artist's vehicle for expressing the effects of rampant consumerism, human fallibility, and media-induced anxiety. Murakami: Unfamiliar People-Swelling of Monsterized Human Ego explores this theme in works from the last decade, a time of intense environmental, political, and social upheaval in the world at large. Using humor and playful distortion, he portrays the monsters that alternately haunt us and offer diversion, solace, and protection from chaos. Lately, the COVID pandemic has unleashed its own demons, prompting new images of estrangement and NFT art that speaks to the rise of replicants and cyborgs that inhabit virtual realms"--

NFTs, digital artwork, blockchain technology / by Beckman, Marc,Author(DLC)no2022000612;
The ultimate guide to the NFT revolution: How non-fungible tokens are poised to transform the digital world. Non-fungible tokens, or NFTs, are the most important digital innovation since the creation of blockchain and cryptocurrency. NFTs share the best elements of both of these, while also representing an entirely new step forward for technology. But how did NFTs arise, how will they impact art and business in the decades to come, and--perhaps most importantly--how can savvy entrepreneurs position themselves today for success in the NFT-driven world of tomorrow? This guide by industry leader and entrepreneur Marc Beckman delves into the underpinnings of NFT technology in a way that makes the subject clear and comprehensible to the layman, while drawing on Marc's branding experience to explore exactly how NFTs are poised to change fashion, sport, fine art, and even social justice. In this book he explores how NFTs will create entirely new asset classes and investment possibilities, such as fractional ownership in dynamic works of art. And in doing so, he also tells the story of how he personally discovered and became entranced by this powerful new tool, and where he believes NFTs will take business and branding throughout the 21st century.
