SUMMARY OF WHAT WE DO
ASKNIGHTS IS AIMING AT BEING THE MOST SELECTIVE AND CURATED CONTEMPORARY ART PORTAL WITH REMARKABLE CONTEMPORARY ART PIECES, BLUECHIP CRYPTO ART, FUTURISTIC NFT ART & HIGHLY CURATED EXHIBITIONS. IT USES THE LATEST EMERGING TECHNOLOGIES SUCH AS NFTS ON BLOCKCHAIN AND SMART CONTRACTS FOR BETTER SECURITY, ACCOUNTABILITY, TRUST, AND TRANSPARENCY. THE SERVICE WE ENCOURAGE TO USE IS MAINLY AUTONOMOUS AND RUN BY ALGORITHMIC PROTOCOLS, STANDARDS AND PRINCIPLES ACCORDING TO END-USERS NEEDS THROUGH PROGRAMMING LANGUAGE AND CODING. IN THIS WAY, OUR USE CASE BUILDS MORE TRUST, BEING MORE IMPARTIAL AND LESS BIASED. THE ART CURATION PROCESS AND ITS SUSTAINABLE CONSERVATION NEED MORE TRUSTWORTHINESS, MORE EFFICIENT PROVENANCE-CHECKING AND WE AIM AT BEING AS EFFECTIVE AND IMPARTIAL AS POSSIBLE. A FAIR CURATION PROCESS IS CHALLENGING AND IT IS OUR SCOPE TO FACE AND SOLVE SUCH ISSUES. AUTOMATION AND AI PLAYS A HELPFUL ROLE IN THIS.
We are bringing innovative ideas to life by combining the art ecosystem with the latest emerging technologies from tech and space innovations. On top of the NFT art platform, we have started working towards a Multiverse to integrate the Artiverse. Imagine a Metaverse with different mini-worlds within, each with different graphics, gameplays, rules, and art. Think about two different kind of worlds: possible worlds and impossible worlds. Let’s all welcome fringe science and have some fun playing its assumptions. This Multiverse includes NFT Art events with play-to-earn rewards and art education. What can be more fun than playing, learning, and earning at the same time?
ASKNIGHTS’ service is the extremely selective with High-End Contemporary Art such as Top Crypto Art and timeless artworks hoping to live for as long as possible in the Artiverse.
In other words, our key project is about an online platform and NFT Art Marketplace where independent artists, auction houses, art galleries and museums can sign up and sell their artworks online on a global scale and reach. The system uses the latest emerging technologies such as blockchain and smart contracts for a more reliable, efficient and secure platform system. It includes emerging technologies such as AR and VR to make the curation and user-experience process more appealing and interesting. ASKNIGHTS uses a hybrid model, so it applies to both digital and physical art and mediums. For physical artworks, it may also provide clients with a GPS-track-and-trace system or RFID tags and temperature control transport so that blue-chip artworks are highly secured and under the radar; furthermore, using this tracking system, the originals will be kept in a blockchain database, while counterfeits will be missing from the database. In this way, the system can guarantee that specific artworks are originals and not copies.
