LOS ANGELES and LONDON, April 25, 2022 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) — Via InvestorWirePIXELYNX, the new music metaverse gaming platform created by musicians and technologists Joel Zimmerman aka deadmau5 and Richie Hawtin, and music and gaming industry veterans Ben Turner, Dean Wilson and Inder Phull, will present Metaverse & Web3 Day at International Music Summit (IMS) Ibiza on Thursday, April 28th at Destino Pacha Resort. Metaverse & Web3 is a special day of programming dedicated to the conversation of now, in partnership with RCRDSHP, Sensorium, EQ Exchange, and CELO. Through panel discussions, presentations, and a beginner’s guide clinic, PIXELYNX aims to provide IMS Ibiza Summit delegates with a comprehensive understanding of how to navigate and harness opportunities of Web3 and the metaverse, from NFTs to DAOs to monetization.

Presenting some of the best and brightest minds in the Web3 space on the IMS Ibiza Summit main stage, PIXELYNX’s seven-hour programming features guest speakers representing Audius, Coachella, Emanate, EQ Exchange, Friends With Benefits, MODA DAO, The Sandbox, Serenade, Seven20, Volta-XR, and more. Additional perspectives will come from artists including deadmau5, Richie Hawtin, Blond:ish, and Portrait XO. PIXELYNX’s CEO Inder Phull will give an opening keynote address to begin the Web3 educational day, and later will sit down for a virtual conversation with PIXELYNX co-founders Joel Zimmerman aka deadmau5 and Richie Hawtin to discuss their innovative platform. The day concludes with an open format Q&A session, where attending delegates will have the opportunity to ask all participating speakers questions.

“Everyone is talking about the potential of the metaverse and Web3 to transform the music industry,” said Phull. “The program we have pulled together at IMS Ibiza Summit will help to demystify this new frontier and show artists, their teams and the industry at large how to take advantage of everything the metaverse and Web3 have to offer.”

PIXELYNX will additionally host a Web3 Clinic at IMS Ibiza Summit to help onboard the electronic music industry into Web3 and will gift every attending delegate a free NFT. Experts will aid patrons in creating a crypto wallet and help them register to receive a PIXELYNX POAP. A POAP (Proof of Attendance Protocol) is a digital badge earned through engagement. A POAP represents a different kind of NFT, as these badges can only be earned by attending an event or purchased later in the secondary market. The IMS Ibiza Summit POAP will be gifted by PIXELYNX to delegates in celebration of the summit and PIXELYNX’s forthcoming game launch – the POAP is poised to unlock new worlds of opportunity for PIXELYNX’s early adopters. Holders of this POAP will be granted long term utility benefits including priority spots on guest lists, ensuring early access to NFT drops, and invitations to exclusive future events by PIXELYNX and various partners.

IMS IBIZA (International Music Summit), the leading platform for industry, culture and education in electronic music, returns for its thirteenth edition in Ibiza this April following a two-year hiatus. One of the first major global industry gatherings to take place since the start of the COVID-19 pandemic, IMS Ibiza Summit 2022 will reunite the entire ecosystem of the genre for three-days of purposeful conversation, connection, and celebration. The summit takes place from April 27-29 at Destino Pacha Ibiza Resort.
