Stream media from DACS and Carroll / Fletcher’s special panel debate exploring new technologies such as blockchain and their impact on the way we create, view, sell and purchase art.

Taking place during Frieze Week, Going Digital looked at digital innovation in the context of artistic provenance, the rise of digital art and collections, and the empowerment of artists' rights.
