Museums and NFTs (2022-2024)
When NFTs rose to prominence in the early 2020s, cultural heritage professionals were suddenly asked to understand and evaluate the NFT environment and technologies that underpin them, including blockchains, smart contracts and cryptocurrencies.

I curated, wrote and edited a number of online exhibitions for Europeana. Here is a selection of this work.
Creative Commons 2020 Virtual Summit
In 2020, I co-Chaired the GLAM track at the 2020 Virtual CC Global Summit, which attracted 1300+ participants, 170+ sessions and featured 200+ presenters and 60 countries. I worked with an amazing group of volunteers from around the globe who made up the Program Committee, the backbone of the CC Summit: curating the programme, identifying speakers, fielding questions and exemplifying the open culture of Creative Commons.
Copyright Cortex (2020)
In 2020, I was proud to be asked to guest curate the Copyright Cortex, adding dozens of resources on open access and cultural heritage to its corpus. The Copyright Cortex is an online resource dedicated to copyright and digital cultural heritage. Developed to provide libraries, archives, museums and other memory institutions with information and expert commentary on how copyright law affects the creation and management of digital cultural heritage.
