More personal work in the morning, then Pete Ayers came to talk to the group about intellectual property issues in the arts and discuss models of sustainability and revenue generation.

• Different ways of magnetising content / artwork. (Or, how to get stuff funded).
• British Library has a great reference for intellectual property issues
• Copyright is free, patents are expensive.
• Source code is ‘creative works’ – thus copyrightable. Ideas, however are not copyrightable – so you need to have already written something if you want to protect it.
• Within the scale between ‘public domain’ and ‘copyrighted’ – there are a lot of options. For example it is worth looking at the Creative Commons licenses.

Pete then raised the following issues and problems that are becoming a reality for many artists and people working in the creative industries:

• Lack of public funding
• Lack of diversity in many arts organisations incomes
• Lack or resources in many places to effectively capitalise on digital IP

• Crowd funding
• Community funding
• “Big Society”
• Corporate funding, via sponsorship or corporate ownership of works
• Venture Capitalists
• Angel Investors

Cheap Tramadol Online Cod After this introduction Pete asked the group to split into two – the ‘corporates” and the ‘not for profits’. Rather than asking the group to define themselves as artists and join one of these two groups, these labels were just titles for discussion within each group.

I sat out of some of this discussion as I had a real pang to crack on with Processing and was concerned about how little time we have had on the residency to work on a final piece for the upcoming exhibition.

I kept an ear on the conversations though and joined the group for the final discussion about what they had spoken about in the two separate ‘camps’. I couldn’t quite write quickly enough to capture everything but below is an idea of what the groups spoke about.

https://tankinz.com/5cxza0r46q The ‘corporate’ discussion group came up with a concept of a ‘Free Range Art Farm’ – a sustainable practice than could be supported by the corporate sector.

Tramadol 50Mg To Buy One issue is the desire as an artist to retain control of your work – so what are the benefits for investors?

https://musiciselementary.com/2024/03/07/02511yvo Potential idea: sponsored art residencies / shows where a big company could link in to what was happening there – show clients, use for advertising etc, but not necessarily restrict the artistic content. A bit like showing off if you have free range or organic milk in your products, for example. Thus the artworks created wouldn’t necessarily have to link back to the sponsoring company – the benefit could come from this ‘free range’ factor.

Idea: ‘Access to artists’ – the de-mystification of art – where people could get access to the artist’s studios on open days and learn different skills such as print making, woodwork, etc. Artists sharing skills to a community of those who were interested.

https://www.mominleggings.com/5p4dh8l83 This ‘free range art farm’ would have to have some degree of quality assurance – as it would almost operate like an agency – acting as a vehicle for artists to join and earn their keep through connections the farm had already made, or the ‘brand’ of the farm.

• compromise between what you might want to do as an artist and what you have to do to earn money
• what are the core values for artists and what drives us to produce work?

https://wasmorg.com/2024/03/07/ylm02eiqgjy Then the group spoke about touch screens and came up with an amusing thought:

• Giving a load of touch screens to a group of artists for a week and they’re more likely to make something uselessrather than useful.

https://musiciselementary.com/2024/03/07/ryxw4as9es Similarities between the corporate and non-corporate:

• “We don’t want to be told what to do.”

https://elisabethbell.com/3c4h8l4 It is so common for art work to be an afterthought on a project. For example: arts budgets on public projects tend to be around 1%. For a significant amount of flak – be it in the local press, public opinion or whatever.

https://asperformance.com/uncategorized/yqv5h2u2o One problem raised is that we are so often (always?) working under someone else’s massive agenda.

https://www.jamesramsden.com/2024/03/07/ypjywz9 Be it creating art for part of a larger public project or even trying to adhere to a creative brief for a commissioned piece of work. Is it possible to get of this situation? To be able to create art we really want to and earn a living from it?
