Living Opera - the Intersection of Art and Technology
About this episode
Christos Makridis is the COO of Living Opera, an art and technology startup at the intersection of technology, fine arts, classical music, and philanthropy.
Why you should listen
Technology is a vehicle for creating transformative, immersive experiences that empower and inspire people at scale. By combining the timeless beauty of fine art, especially opera, with technological tools, Living Opera is building a flourishing worldwide community.
The NFTs are a funding mechanism for giving: Living Opera provides free training and mentoring experiences for aspiring artists otherwise unable to receive resources, including providing them with world-class voice lessons in Italy.
Living Opera views blockchain technology as a catalyst for positive change in the arts. Using revenues from the Magic Mozart collection, they will launch a decentralized autonomous organization (DAO) for grant-making, community-building, and education in the arts, starting with and specializing in opera, to award micro-grants to young artists and promote skill acquisition.
