read the draft PositionStatements This list will close on the 8th of July, to enable us to begin contacting invited participantsSomeone from Own-it a partnership between the University of the Arts and Creative London (London Development Agency), providing knowledge, advice and support for creative people to exploit their intellectual property. http://www.own-it.org Roger Wilson Head of Chelsea College of Art and Design, and or Linda Drew Dean of Academic Developement at Chelsea College of Art and Design: responsible for innovations in learning and teaching. Richard Stallman the main man, founder of the Free Software Foundation(FSF) (http://www.gnu.org/copyleft/) and motive force behind Free Software. Mathew Fuller has written an excelent book on software culture, Behind the Blip. He might be part of the Mongrell collective and I/O/D. Fuller is interested in an expanded and critical definition of computer interface using a non-neutral, racialised, point-of-view. A great text (https://pzwart.wdka.hro.nl/mdr/pubsfolder/liangessay/view) Copyright, Cultural Production and Open Content Licensing by Lawrence Liang. We heard Liang speak at a recent conference in London, he is an engaging speaker with a crucial social, and emerging world perspective on FLOSS. An interesting critical essay on The Packet Gang by Jamie King (http://www.metamute.com/) as a means for social (and therefore potentially art) organization, taken from our hosts Meta-Mute. Recomposing the University by Tiziana Terranova & Marc Bousquet, also from metamute, is very interesting on the corporatization of knowledge (http://www.metamute.com/look/article.tpl?IdLanguage=1&IdPublication=1&NrIssue=28&NrSection=10&NrArticle=1403). Terranova is an excelent speaker so I am told Paul Gerhardt is the strategic director of the BBC's soon to be launched Creative Archive. The BBC are to start licensing 'educational' programs under creative commons licenses which will be online and available for all to watch, re-edit and re-distibute. http://www.chelsea2005.com the graduating students wiki, on forms of knowledge transfer and self institution the Copenhagen Free University (http://www.copenhagenfreeuniversity.dk/) are a bit like the University of Openess in trying to institute and organise outside of the Academy, University and state institutions Ummm..... this might be a bit incestuous but Simon Worthington and the OM project? Trebor Scholz from the The Institute for Distributed Creativity (http://www.distributedcreativity.org/) The research of the Institute for Distributed Creativity (iDC) focuses on collaboration in media art, technology, and theory with an emphasis on social contexts. The iDC is an independent international network with a participatory and flexible institutional structure that combines advancedcreative production, research, events, anddocumentation. A great essay by Scholz on conference organization and structure can be found here Umberto Eco(!) with reference to The Open Work see: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Umberto_Eco Professor Otto E Roessler University of Tuebingen, Germany ...Benevolence Theory! http://mailman.thing.net/pipermail/idc/2005-February/000022.html Someone representing MIT's Open Course Ware: a free and open educational resource for faculty, students, and self-learners around the world.
