In Europe i've performed music in some Non-profit places that provide entertainment. It seems that almost every large town or city has some form of non-profit entertainment. Mostly these places bring published entertainment rather than art from the community.

In a lot of regional areas in Europe these places used to be the only form of entertainment, yet in the last years different clubs and venues have sprung up everywhere. So now these non-profits are often promoting well published acts to the public in order to get attention and maintain a reputation.

An idea to integrate into the "free culture house" might be a "free-culture bus". Get artists to create their own bus online and tour it. Most of these non-profit organizations need information on free-culture and also want to bring quality entertainment that is not part of the label scene to the locals.

here is more information on the free-culutre bus, that got lost in the fog.

free culture bus:
as in bus (person, group) that could drive (walk) from place to place to present ideas on free-culture. www.freeculture.org www.creativecommons.org www.wikki.org www.linux.org www.freebeer.org www.ngoinabox.org www.icommons.org and many many many more that you probably know much better than me. by night entertainment in a venue, by day at a school or university. a central website might tie all the loose ends together so that all the information would be online for people to create there own free-culture bus tour. yet a free-culture bus could also catch a train or maybe walk. maybe walk from bus stop to bus stop. well that is one idea for a free-culture bus.

A key change at iCommons

If you're not part of the iCommons mailing list, take a look at the letter that Heather Ford, Executive Director of iCommons, sent to the list yesterday:

Dear friends,

At the 2 August iCommons Board Meeting, the board decided to make some difficult but necessary changes at iCommons. It has become clear over the past months that our vision for iCommons is different from the... more
