Summary
A Consensus 2023 panel with William Shatner and Dave Broome.
At age 92, William Shatner is still seeking out innovative ways of engaging with fans. The legendary actor, along with Orange Comet CEO Dave Broome, discusses his longtime interest in crypto and how Web3 is shifting the entertainment landscape as it redefines the fan experience. Shatner also reveals his new NFT collection, Infinite Connections. Featuring an extremely detailed digital Shatner 3D avatar, the collection visually explores scientific phenomena—such as quantum physics, magnetic frequencies, and mathematical theories—along with various earthly elements, from sonic vibrations to volcanic eruptions, to the 'quiet language' of trees.
Zack Seward, contributing editor-at-large at CoinDesk, moderates alongside panelists:
- William Shatner, actor
- Dave Broome, CEO of Orange Comet
This episode is executive produced by Jared Schwartz and edited by Ryan Huntington, with additional production assistance from Eleanor Pahl. Cover image by Kevin Ross and the theme song is "Get Down" by Elision.
