Radio Nova Project: Open Source Internet Radio
Jamison, Oslo (Norway) · 9/11/2007 03:52
Radio Nova might like to start collecting works licensed under a creative commons license. A kind of open source internet radio/art station that plays content licensed with creative commons licenses. From the people that i have spoken to at the university there would be support to create such a project. Music that was considered popular on the Open source radio station you might then perform through the airwaves. The more works licensed with creative commons licenses that are performed on your above ground network the more right you would have to demand a decrease in the amount that you pay to Tono.
Thoughts on Creative Commons:
What i like about creative commons is that it offers the artist the opportunity to get exposure for her or his ideas/cocepts/art/music beyond their community of friends without the use of the regular business model.
Keeping this in mind. Most likely 95 percent of the content that is played on your radio network is owned by publishers, and your a non-profit radio station funded by the people. People that have musical ideas at home and want to get exposure for those ideas beyond their immediate social network have to go to publishers mostly. Mostly their musical ideas are rejected, as a result huge amounts of cultural funding is given out to maintain the arts scene in many developed countries. Artists join collection societies with the backing of culturally funded labels in many circumstances. In Australia, you have to pay a grant writer around 250 dollars to write a grant and then the writer gets 10 percent of anything the artist is granted. Neither getting a cultural fund for your music or getting a publisher to accept your music are such artists ideas.
