Students within the program are learning about Digital Art, PFP projects, Fashion, Computer Generative art, and Photography. The classes are free and open for all to attend. Only enrolled students are able to view video recordings, however, so non-students must view the classes live. The instructional sessions are being run through the Playground Social app and classes conclude at the end of August. Register for the free classes here. Social Art Platform zeroone Transitions to own L1 The completely free to use art exchange, zeroone, has begun its transition to the zeroone Mainnet, an L1 that is part of the Avalanche network. The transition will help the platform, which covers all transaction fees, battle rising costs as more users arrive. In addition to monetary savings, the new L1 offers other advantages. Running their own blockchain means dedicated blockspace, unaffected by other projects. Additionally, the chain can set its own rules for enforcing artist royalties, while also keeping the art free to move across any chain in the Avalanche network, including the C-chain.
