Utilizing blockchain technology, ARK ensures transparency, immutability, and traceability, providing an unprecedented level of security for music IP. 

Key Features of ARK Include:

1. Blockchain-Powered IP Protection: ARK harnesses the power of the blockchain to create an immutable record of ownership, interactions and collaborations for music and intellectual property. The Blockchain ensures that artists have indisputable proof of their creations, who saw it and when, so they can confidently share their work without fear of unauthorized use. 

2. Secure Storage and Sharing: ARK provides a secure and user-friendly platform for artists to store and share their music. With end-to-end encryption and advanced access controls, artists can selectively share their creations with collaborators, record labels, or potential licensees, all while maintaining complete control over their intellectual property. 

3. Collaborative Workspace: ARK offers a collaborative workspace where artists can connect, collaborate, share and create together. This feature fosters a vibrant community of like-minded individuals, encouraging artistic growth and collaboration while providing a secure environment for the sharing of ideas and works-in-progress.

ARK is the brainchild of Co-Founders Jamie Hartman and Ed Bennett-Coles, a songwriter and a screenwriter. The pair created ARK as a way to solve a very specific problem they each encountered during their successful careers as IP creators, Jamie in Music and Ed in Film. The pair was then introduced to MetaWorks Platforms founder and Chairman Cameron Chell seeking to find a way to protect, share and collaborate with IP. By combining their collective expertise in music, film and Web3 and blockchain technology, they created the groundbreaking solution called ARK. ARK empowers artists and creators to take control of their creations and secure their future in the digital landscape. 

"We’re excited to introduce ARK to the world at the IMPF conference in Mallorca, Spain this week as we prepare for the invitation-only beta release on October 15th followed by our full launch. ARK represents a significant step forward in how we protect the rights of musicians and all creators of human/non AI intellectual property" said ARK Co-Founder Jamie Hartman.
