Authority Rights and licensing Problem with Free Video on Demand / SSA Development of an technical concept and first setup for a video on delay service, which allows users to reserve freely available video content for the next day and for a time span as expected while not showing the content immediately online. This allows to fulfil the legal requirements

Those community meetings were organised to draw attention to the complex situation surrounding copyright and the issue of publication mechanisms in the arts and design. At these meetings, the needs of the various stakeholder groups were collected and analysed, and a network was established.

Together Elsewhere

[edit]
[edit]

"Together Elsewhere" is a collaborative networking project in which one performance artist from Switzerland and one from Norway perform together for 30 minutes in the virtual space of a live streaming. Before the performance, the spatial constellations, specific objects to be used and other aspects are agreed upon. As a growing resource, "Together Elsewhere" adds each month one live event which is then continued/stabilised as video document – publicly available.

Problems/questions

[edit]
  • Reference: How to properly reference artworks and in particular performing arts
  • Copyright: Clarify copyright issues in the field of performing arts (e.g. related rights)
Guidelines: 1.2.1.e. Related rights; 1.2.2.e Related rights; 1.2.2.k. Audiovisuals, theatre, dance, circus, films and multimedia

  • Persistent identifiers and metadata: How to ensure longterm findability through cataloguing and indexing practices
Guidelines

Solutions and development

[edit]
Even if no free licenses can be granted on videos in Switzerland due to copyright law, such a license is applied in the files and displayed. In addition: the media library covers the costs for the collecting societies and is considering implementing a player that turns video on demand into video with delay so that it can continue to afford to make such content available.

Alpine Netze der Verbundenheit

[edit]
[edit]

The research project "Alpine Netze der Verbundenheit" focuses on the dense network of small cable cars in the Schächen valley of Uri, Switzerland is examined for its socio-cultural and communicative everyday function. Guided by Bruno Latour's actor-network theory, the project involves archival research, interviews and participant observation of operational processes. The project deliberately brings another actor into the network: artistic interventions (music performance and interactive sonification) challenge the usual usage and explore the perspectives and limits of alternative uses of this culturally and historically valuable infrastructure. Overall, this case study also contributes to linking historiographical, anthropological, and artistic research.

Fashion as Performance

[edit]
[edit]

BA Fashion Design Students and their performances / presentations are the focus of this case study that involves public streaming, exams, social media content. The event "Doing Fashion" was based on the premise that fashion becomes legible as a performative process that stages clothes on bodies in a specific space. Only through various staging strategies do clothes become fashion and signs within our culture and our communication. For fashion, performativity consists in the incessant process of constructing and deconstructing meanings. In this way, fashion represents representation itself, it only refers to the indwelling character of all signs without providing a clear referent.

Problems/questions

[edit]
  • Copyright: Clarify copyright issues when dealing with students work
  • Social media: Risks and benefits of sharing content on social media, in particular students' work
Guidelines: 6.7.1. How to deal with social media
Training: Introduzione al copyright e all'open access con un focus sui social media. Incontro dedicato agli studenti di comunicazione visiva, di Suzanna Marazza, 2023.

Solutions/development

[edit]
Due to the complex rights situation, an internal solution was found. The process is documented. The case is also so helpful for the OS-ADM project because it demonstrates the need for prior agreement and written clarification of the terms of use, especially with third-party companies
