To benefit from the Free Art License, you only need to mention the following elements on your work:

greg nice one
Greg Scranton: 18:55:52
right! so if some corporation wants to use your work to sell products then they can but then EVERYONE else can use the commercial produced by the corporation for whatever creative purposes they would like.  Big $$ loathes this idea!
stephen wright: 18:56:30
please repeat that!

copyleft is not web 2.0
stephen wright: 18:56:43
haha
stephen wright: 18:57:00
someone was asking a question -- which we couldn't hear
Elysa Lozano: 18:57:06
it undermines the value system used for creating a price on a work of art, so maybe its part of a vision for a different type of art economy?
ost-autonomy" title="post-autonomy">post-autonomy: 18:57:34
 but your right this form of licience doesnt work for art works
Greg Scranton: 18:57:42
sure but many "web 2.0" entities embrace copyleft or at least creative commons licensing

was the big win
le triangle: 18:59:49
thanx
Greg Scranton: 19:00:06
assuming Artworks are different than Creative works
Greg Scranton: 19:00:21
I don't make that distinction, at least not immediately
le triangle: 19:01:01
The thing is that once you give your rights of that artwork to FAL you cannot claim them back
le triangle: 19:01:08
same as creative commons
le triangle: 19:01:45
also if you have the rights of an art work you can set an agreement with the person who wants to use it so they don't have to pay you a fee
BASEKAMP team: 19:03:13
right, so be careful b4 u CC or CL!

ok, adding you to the chat now

another thing is that if your work is used in other country you are covered within the law of the country where you registered it

re Richard Stallman, yes
stephen wright: 19:18:13
Most languages have two words for what in English we call "free"
BASEKAMP team: 19:18:35
but we are talking about a question --- where ideology meets economy
stephen wright: 19:18:50
in French, "gratuit" versus "libre"
antoine moreau: 19:18:58
yes
le triangle: 19:19:03
it should be free and free-of-charge

hi aharon, adding you to the audio now!
ost-autonomy" title="post-autonomy">post-autonomy: 19:19:29
how does this idea differ to the notion of the multiple? Which in many respects touches on the notion of the gift and something equivalent to a free art work

That something is free of charge  doesn't mean that it doesn't belong to someone...
Elysa Lozano: 19:23:44
maybe I missed this in the beginning - how are 'author's rights' defined by FAL?

Howdy folks.
Aharon: 19:26:20
good point, stephen
BASEKAMP team: 19:26:33
Catharine MacKinnon is like that too... the law is a territory to occupy and re-develop in the service of ethics
Jonathan Simpson: 19:26:56
/32
Aharon: 19:26:57
why does it need a law/rule?
Jonathan Simpson: 19:26:58
oops
Greg Scranton: 19:27:12
seems to me the question becomes how is it enforced.  If it's a social expectation devoid of any "authority" then it is in a way very anarchistic
le triangle: 19:27:25
He is right, you gotta have it written down...clear example: the moon...no one claim it until some guy registered it as his...i'll bet you'll want a contract to claim something as yours....it is beyond caring or not about the law is about caring about your pieces

sure and galleries are free to look whereas museums are not but why?
Greg Scranton: 19:28:56

are you talking about law as rules that constitute stuff, or that define stuff?
ost-autonomy" title="post-autonomy">post-autonomy: 19:29:21

the free use of art
Greg Scranton: 19:31:49
I don;t get that
stephen wright: 19:31:50
Sorry greg
Greg Scranton: 19:32:26
free as in $$$ not speech then!!!!
Aharon: 19:32:36
does it not the case that your licence acknowledge money as an exchange mode by default - hence free by metaphor??
BASEKAMP team: 19:32:38
for example our site is licensed under a Creative Commons Attribution-Noncommercial-Share Alike 3.0 Unported License... so that is not copyleft because it's decidedly non-commercial?
Greg Scranton: 19:33:16
I'm having real trouble understanding how Free=Speech is it's contingent upon it being commercially viable
ost-autonomy" title="post-autonomy">post-autonomy: 19:33:28
if your inside the art world you can steal and replicate whatever other art works that you want to so long as it maintains the system
stephen wright: 19:33:33
me too
Greg Scranton: 19:33:46
so then isn't the only truly free license "public domain"?
stephen wright: 19:34:09
non commercial is wasp, puritan ideology
stephen wright: 19:34:15
is it?
Aharon: 19:34:29
only if you think that monetary exchange mode is required
stephen wright: 19:34:55
Antoine's point is that money is neither required nor bad
Aharon: 19:34:57
if you do - that is very conservative of you, isn't it?
Aharon: 19:35:43
but money is seen as a requirement
le triangle: 19:35:44
exactly he's taling about owning the rights of the art work which not necessarily means that you'll be ashing in tons of $$
le triangle: 19:35:55

BASEKAMP team: 19:36:20
yes... not a literal -- but a very powerful argument

ost-autonomy" title="post-autonomy">post-autonomy: 19:37:23
All the rich artists working in london with galleries work for free so that their galleries make money from their work
Greg Scranton: 19:37:28
so then by licensing something as non-commercial you are assigning more importance and legitimation and thus authority to $$$?  Actually I kinda see that...your turning me around on this one smiley
BASEKAMP team: 19:37:34
david lol
BASEKAMP team: 19:38:08
grrg noooooooooooooo oooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo
stephen wright: 19:38:09
non-commercial is based on the FEAR that someone might rip us off and make money off our work. and fear is a bad motivation for anything.
ost-autonomy" title="post-autonomy">post-autonomy: 19:38:09
what happens is that their work is distributed via the galleries contacts

we should address he difference of owning an art work or owning the rights of that work...i mean, when you sell something doesn't necessarily means that you sell the rights of use i.e. making profit out of it.

From that essay I posted a link to: "While narrowing this field of contestation, Creative Commons simultaneously portrays itself as radical, as the avant-garde of the battle against intellectual property. Creative Commons has become a kind of default orthodoxy in non-commercial licensing, and a popular cause among artists and intellectuals who consider themselves generally on the left and against the IP regime in particular. The Creative Commons label is moralistically invoked on countless sites, blogs, speeches, essays, artworks and pieces of music as if it constituted the necessary and sufficient condition for the coming revolution of a truly “free culture.” Creative Commons is part of a larger copyfight movement, which is defined as a fight to keep intellectual property tethered to its original purpose and to prevent it from going too far."

who really owns ideas? asks scott. the ownership of things is based on scarcity. But ideas are unlimited, so their ownership is based on artificial scarcity.
ost-autonomy" title="post-autonomy">post-autonomy: 19:43:19
Well sturtevant was chased out of New York for testing out these ideas
Aharon: 19:43:32
the attribution becomes scarese
Greg Scranton: 19:43:33
artificial scarcity = scarcity of resources = Hobbes reason for civic society/organized government
stephen wright: 19:43:57
exactly
Aharon: 19:45:22
but that depends on the monetray exchange mode. if u had a good idea and some one else used it, but that would not affect your ability to eat, fuck and dream - then wth..
ost-autonomy" title="post-autonomy">post-autonomy: 19:45:50
well that is not correct

if it is a law, the producer of it has domination

if someone is in a better position to use that idea and have the access to the means of publicity and distribution

by worthless you mean priceless?

if it is free - y need protection??

Guys, we have the co-organizers of FOSSCON here -- (Free & Open Source Software Conference), taking place this weekend @ Rochester Institute of Technology
stephen wright: 19:48:46
art is essentially free -- or else it is not art. But art could be threatened in its freedom if it failed to protect it
stephen wright: 19:49:08
Freedom too needs protection because it is a fragile potential

stephen wright: 19:50:55
great
le triangle: 19:51:08
they don't protect art freedom they protect art use...
stephen wright: 19:51:16
free use
stephen wright: 19:51:25
not just use
le triangle: 19:51:33
and we go back to the use of the word "free"
le triangle: 19:51:42
smiley
stephen wright: 19:51:47
first word of Free art license
le triangle: 19:52:30
it's a linguistics issue then hahhaa..as they said before most laguages have to different words for wat we're talking about
Greg Scranton: 19:52:32
also think it's awesome that you reached out to BK!
Aharon: 19:52:41
their reason of being becomes that of the military and police etxc - to protect. and that is where freedom ends
Aharon: 19:52:59
..or is it?
stephen wright: 19:53:12
i think, in all fairness, that Free Art License is pretty different than the military
Aharon: 19:53:48
yup, stephen.. was ref the comment re collectors etc..

The purpose of art institutions is to project their cultural stock, and the legitimacy that maintains its cultural capital
stephen wright: 19:54:25
Hey Fosscom folks. It's cool that plausible artworlds are part of your meeting!
stephen wright: 19:54:58
But if our collaboration is to be fruitful, we need to emphasise our different approaches, not our similarities
le triangle: 19:55:20
let's change free for gratuitous art license
stephen wright: 19:55:27
We need to mutualise our incompetencies as much as our compentencies
Martin Peeks: 19:55:28
it's pretty awesome to be able to link FOSS with free/libre *culture* as a whole. it's easy to mentally seperate them and i probably usually do (despite having been involved in both sides to an extent), so this whole conversation's been really interesting and the conference keynoting seems great
Aharon: 19:55:29
though the idea of req protection via a law - might have militaristic similarities.. this is not a finger pointing crit, but a self questioning one..
stephen wright: 19:55:39
(gratuitous is pretty pejorative in English)
le triangle: 19:55:52
damn...
Greg Scranton: 19:55:57
Scott do you mean a singular project that reflects a copy left attitude?
Greg Scranton: 19:56:07
hmmmm

"We need to mutualise our incompetencies as much as our compentencies"
Aharon: 19:56:49
a history of copyleft to begin with.. smiley
BASEKAMP team: 19:57:10
Greg i mean... would anyone here like to offer something to the mix... not necessarily any united voice, i mean, even a completely differing opinion or idea
Greg Scranton: 19:57:21
gotcha
stephen wright: 19:57:56
the freedom of freedom... hmm... that's conceptual artlike
BASEKAMP team: 19:58:09
also... we are in the midst of putting togehter the presentation.. which we intend to be a bewildering array of free and open source cultural examples
ost-autonomy" title="post-autonomy">post-autonomy: 19:58:37
But there is a problem where freedom folds over into boundlessness and the free flow of capital
le triangle: 19:59:00
we're born free...but then comes the lawwwww
le triangle: 19:59:02
hahahaha
ost-autonomy" title="post-autonomy">post-autonomy: 19:59:12
which then turns into colonisation and globalisation
Aharon: 19:59:42
..as the clash observed very well.. smiley
stephen wright: 19:59:58
I fought that law
stephen wright: 20:00:02
and it won
Aharon: 20:00:11

stephen wright: 20:01:17
without art, free software is not free
Greg Scranton: 20:01:29
sorry Aharon I was totally kidding! smiley
stephen wright: 20:01:31
what is free about it is the art of doing free software
Aharon: 20:01:49
