IP Development: Ownership, Design, and Collaborative World-Building with Rebecca Barkin, Lamina1

Mar 28, 2025

For decades, independent creators have faced a difficult choice—maintain full ownership of their IP or sign deals that restrict their creative control and disconnect them from their fans. Web 3.0 poses a challenge to the status quo. By leveraging decentralized tools, creators can now develop, expand, and monetize their IP while retaining full rights. This shift isn’t just about technology—it’s about the power in creative freedom, fair compensation, and the collaborative and agile design methodologies that allow us to imagine and build new worlds in concert with our communities.

Rebecca Barkin is Co-Founder and CEO of Lamina1 alongside legendary sci-fi author and technologist Neal Stephenson. Lamina1 is a creator-owned platform and new economy for IP incubation, distribution, and monetization. An expert in immersive design, she’s spent 20+ years leading creative and technical teams at some of the world’s most ambitious experiential projects, including the Mukaab, Madison Square Garden Sphere, Magic Leap, Nod.AI, Genius Products, Dell, and EMI Capitol Records.
