There's no one better equipped to break down music NFTs than Joan Westenberg, a writer, angel investor, creative director, and marketing lead at MODA DAO. We sat down with Joan and asked her all of our questions: What even are music NFTs, how do you listen to them, and why do they benefit artists. We also discuss her work with MODA DAO, a DAO dedicated to the adoption of web3 in the music industry, and Riot Grrrls, an NFT project building the first women-led coworking community in the crypto world. She's also the author of #DIY: Fuck the Gatekeepers, which you can read right here, and we unpack some of the life lessons she learned that led her to write a book.
