call for eula's

** Clip Kino organiser/facilitator **

1.  Arranges and secures the space for event (the venue), including gathering together the necessary equipment to make a screening event (the equipment, which includes projector/LCD TV, laptop, adaptors, audio speakers or sound system if necessary).

2.  Manages general communications on the Clip Kino publicity, including sharing login details (website archive), or admin/posting rights (e.g. facebook) where appropriate.

3.  Takes responsibility to help the Clip Kino guest-curator gain some awareness and acknowledgment of terms of use of common video-sharing platforms, and how the Clip Kino guest-curator may be entering a ‘grey legal zone’.

4.  Takes responsibility for gathering clip screening list, and making this available on the relevant Clip Kino archive within a week of the event.

** Clip Kino guest-curator/group **

1.  Arranges at least 1 event of 40-60 mins of video-clip content sourced from the Internet, based on a theme or subject of their choice.

2.  Gives a text description and image to illustrate the event, 1 week in advance of the event, to be used in publicity.

3.  Agrees that if the video-clips are used which are not already online, the Clip Kino guest-curator will put the materials online before the event takes place.

4.  Agrees not to show illegal materials, racist, hardcore pornography, or that which depicts violatons of human or animal rights.

5.  Gives respect to the audience who turns up to watch what they have chosen, without knowing exactly what they are going to watch.

6.  Agrees to give an advance warning if materials are unsuitable for under 13 age, or if they may shock or disgust audience members.

7.  Agrees to share the clip screening list on the day of the screening event. This list will have as minimum information the title of each video-clip (which is same as that titled online) and its link to it’s location online. Further information which is helpful includes the time-length of each clip, when and by whom uploaded the clip, and any notes the guest-curator/group wishes to give.

8.  Considers contacting the authors of clips in advance (via an in-build messaging service of the platform) to seek permission/give notice that the clip is going to be shown at a public event. However, In Clip Kino we interpret that when someone has uploaded video online they understand it to be public in the common-sense of the term.

Note that screening in public most likely breaches terms-of-use for most online video-sharing platforms. For example, YouTube §5 B: “You shall not copy, reproduce, distribute, transmit, broadcast, display, sell, license, or otherwise exploit any Content for any other purposes without the prior written consent of YouTube or the respective licensors of the Content.” http://www.youtube.com/t/terms

** Clip Kino audience **

1.  Is attending on the basis of not knowing exactly what they are going to watch.

2.  Is often different at each event, according to theme, guest-curator/group, venue, social-network, publicity, season, weather. More variables that can be mentioned.

3.  Is attending on the basis of trust, interest, enthusiasm, friendship, good will, open-mindedness, curiosity, and many other unknowns.

The drink must be served chilled.

The work may only be viewed for five seconds at a time, so as to keep the experience at a precognitive level of visual experience, and to prevent cognitive reflection. (A true visual experience is not cognitive). The required delay between glimpses is not specified, but must be long enough for focus/consciousness to have moved on to something else.

Oh yeah, there’s also the EEL (Extreme Exposure License), which is actually frequently used by unknown artists. If you can’t remember it, here’s a recap:

“The work published under the EEL must be made known to everybody anywhere and at any time.”

Notice how most record companies and publishers shamelessly fail to recognize their obligations in relation to this fine license.

This might be one of the earliest licenses recorded in history, as it is believed that the Gospels were published under this license.  At that time there was a second clause though. The exact wordings has not survived the ages, but legend has it, that it went something like this:

“Those who do not actively participate in the spreading of the work, will go to Hell.”

I’m sure you’re all very well aware of the EPL (Extreme Protective Licence). Nevertheless here it is:

“Any work published under the EPL may not be known, publicly nor privately, to anybody, anywhere at any time – ever!”

Seldom used by artist themselves (except those severely depressed), though it has had a kind of a revival since 2001 and the launch of the terror law.

The work’s title should be considered the ‘source code’ of the artifact. The artifact is considered an implementation of the work. Various artifacts may have the same title, if they follow the instructions given in the title. (Many modernist works already follow this pattern, for example “Composition with Yellow, Blue, and Red” by Mondrian).

Variant: Hacked or ‘modded’ versions of the work, where the title is change to accomodate changes, e.g. “Composition with Yellow, Blue and Cyan“

The artefact must be photographed before the work actually exists. The ‘work’ is the photograph, which thereafter may be considered an original edition of the work, by the artist. Digital copies are invalid, only analogue film is permitted.

Additional clause added for clarity: The artist may not have any direct editorial influence on the photograph. The artefact itself may not be sold.

The work may only be viewed by 10 people, not including the artist, or anyone officially employed by the gallery. After ten viewings, the work must be destroyed.

The work is only ‘art’ if there is a human being standing within 10 metres of it.

(a 10 yard version of this license for North America may be negotiated)

Every time the work is sold, 10% of the price is donated to the ministry of culture (in the land of sale).

The work must be sold at least every 28 days, at an increased price each time, or else it loses its status as an art object.
