Some Great Poster Designs and a Manifesto for Creative Value – Spread the Message
http://www.behance.net/gallery/I-am-Designer/546504 The work of Ben Crick – really nice stuff and message– My sentiments exactly;) Spread the Word–and Images:)
YOU TUBE, GOOGLE- YEAH THEY”LL CERTAINLY BE VETTING ALL THOSE VIDEOS THAT CLAIM CC AND CREATOR OWNERSHIP
http://venturebeat.com/2011/06/02/youtube-adds-creative-commons-licenses-for-video-editing/
See Previous Post, Companies big and small, some just “well meaning teachers” will all be helping to let google be the only, well maybe viacom and disney get a cut, provider of all video on the world networks of the future. Oh you can upload your kids video.. but only YouTube can charge NIKE to use it…
Slave away, oh you makers of Pyramids in the 21st century.:)
OH, JOY, A OPENSIMS EXPO WHERE THE HOST TAKES ALL RIGHTS TO PUBLISH WORKS NOT OWNED/OR SHOWN BY THE UPLOADERS THEY’LL CALL ARTISTS.;)
http://www.jokaydiagrid.com/2011/06/01/opensim-worlds-community-exhibition/
I sent them an email. explained the “non ethics” in their “entry forms” I Will post an update if they fix it. Ill probably post an update if they dont as well.;)
All too common, too may people really think theyll be KING not Pauper in this new digital world order.
UPDATE MADE: Note Comment Below;) I havent yet looked at the new form, but i would hope it follows “common basic language” about Creative Work Sumittals to Publishers and Showcases/Contests, etc known to commercial artists/designers for many years. I do have concern that they still dont “grok” the publish/display/promote thing as having any “value”
since it must, or why would they themselves be doing the event;) In any case. They responded quickly,,,let us hope YOUTUBE/GOOGLE will as such when 10,000 CC “called” images becomes 10 million, and Google can “make bank” off of each and everyone…;)
Still not time to CHOOSE CREATIVE COMMERCE? c3?– well OK. let the Jenkin’s Cult take the CCC for their Transmedia IPOs;)
The real slim shady C3
DCMA JUST DONT WORK FOR SMALL ARTISTS – REPEAL THR LAW- NEW LAW NEEDED
http://dollyandlilithheart.blogspot.com/2011/03/kitely-brings-stolen-content-to.html
Just another small artist group ripped off and unable to deal withe the badly constructed DCMA designed to allow bootleggers of others property to make big bucks on its illegal transport and distribution.
From Star Doll to YouTube to Second Life…. Billions have been made off of artists works/images never paid for or licensed.
Paper magazine trolled AOL art forums to get “free illustration” for publications back in 1995. It’s been over 15 years and now the same types are trolling the entire web for the same purpose. Now they come for you. What will you do when your work is stolen and you cant pay the rent anymore?
CREATIVE COMMERCE GOES RETRO — IT’s LITERATE!
Go Here. Read this. A much better use of the literate English language than I have the ability to use anymore. It’s for those of you who arent sure “grunting” at your iPlayphone 2.0 is the future world you want to see for your kids, or for them to be trapped by.
As the author suggests, feel free to grab the logos and use them in Second Life, and any/all first life web sites you run. If we are to to virtualize “everything” that is non eatable or breathable, let us at least keep the idea of human fairness and value of/ to each other alive.
UPDATED LOGOS- CREATIVE COMMERCE
Ive uploaded some logos. Feel Free to cut and resize as needed. Ive made a png and some jpg versions.
Quick, Meme this Logo before it becomes an O’Reilly TM Conference
Do you have a better 3′ C’s ? If so post em and defend them.
Creativity – It’s what humans have to offer and contribute. Otherwise were just fodder for the media and the machines.
Commerce – It’s still gotta be there to be fair. Web2.0 economic justice was an epic fail.
Community – It’s a sales myth in most virtualized systems online, but If we’re gonna live online, we better find ways to make sustainable communities in them.
Creative Commerce Store – Money where a Mouth is.

I added the Store. The T-Shirts and Mugs look good. Id stay away from the buttons and stickers untill I upload a resized graphic logo.;)

Todays Reallife Activities:
I just had to waste an hour+ “redoing” the Description texts in the marketplace on 55 items, since they (LL robots drones) moved them over and “conviently” CUT OFF my COMMERCIAL/NON COMMERCIAL LICENSE TERMS. (the ones ive used since 95 and “invented” later by Creative Commons “ to make their cult with.) Some items listed had their entire descriptions/licences eliminated from the market.
LL and their ethics towards other peoples Value of worth and work, has hit a new low.
How’ed I find out about the “revalueing” of cube3 works on the marketplace?
Today I had to suggest professional business ethics against the greed and bad ethical choices that LL creates with their “machinima policy memes” and ways. Ways publically supported by CC lawyers online.
Old school “pioneer” Machinima makers should be ashamed of what the newbies and pundits are doing in search of “professional animation business today” and how they utilze other’s works for personal commercial gain while paying pennies to a dollar of value to do so.
Ends justify the memes?.. this is the ethics of LL /CC virtual studiocity when applied to all those who don’t own/sell the “platform-code” . Its stupid and so short sighted.
There’s always a cheaper slave. IF slavery is legal or desired.
Anyhow. Rant over.
Do your own homework, or Google will do it for you.;)
