MUS3 Web3 Fundamentals Course
To support and upskill the Victorian music industry, the Victorian Music Development Office (VMDO) has launched the MUS3 Web3 Fundamentals course, created by Victorian-based company, CLUB MEDIA LABS, with additional support from the Australia Council for the Arts.
The MUS3 Web3 Fundamentals course is now open.
MUS3 Web3 Fundamentals is an introductory course to learn the basics of blockchain and Web3 in the context of the music industry. Although the course was specifically designed in response to the needs of the Victorian music community, we are delighted to be providing access to the short MUS3 online course to anyone who is interested.
Blockchain is unlocking new possibilities that may redefine the future of music. It involves shifting power to creators, improving efficiency, and increasing engagement with fans and stakeholders.
