=================================================
Sanna Marttila & Petri Kola (both FI) presents.. **Open Video**
=================================================

Milloin?:  Ke./Wed. 27.05.2009 klo 18.00-20.00
Missä?:  LUME TV Studio, TaiK

This is opening event of the 'Emerging Media Practices and Environments'
symposium organised by ARKI research group in Medialab, TaiK.

Social media systems, applications and numerous video sharing websites on
the Internet have given everyday people a possibility to take part in the
creation and distribution of audiovisual media. They use these digital
platforms of participation for viewing, producing and sharing video. Open
creation and collaboration with video has more levels than just viewing and
production: people tell stories, share interests, exchange and share media
content, develop innovations and invent solutions together through videos.

How to define this emerging phenomenon that makes media more open and
accessible for us? What constitutes Openness and Open Video on the Internet?
For some it is a development for better open source video software and video
encoders and decoders, for others it is an ongoing discussion and a way of
expressing their creativity and collaborating with peers. Is Openness
becoming an essential element of being an active citizen? Or is acting in
the open in the society a luxury only for some?

This Clip Kino event with a theme on Open Video sheds light to some of the
current understandings and definitions of openness in video through
pre-selected video clips, curated by Creative Commons spokesperson and
researcher Sanna Marttila (http://creativecommons.fi/) and artist-researcher
Petri Kola (http://twitter.com/pe3).

We invite participants to join in the discussion of the theme and the
growing movement of Open Video.
