Evolution

Posted by Deirdre Towers on April 25, 2008 at 11:30pm
Marlon & I have been debating the design of an on-line component to dance on camera. We've explored some names, such as dance on camera: mash-up or Mash-Up Mambo. We've wondered whether to make it a contest to be judged by editors, to tie it to specific scores or themes, to offer prizes or to set it up as something more timeless, something that could continue into perpetuity.Reading today that Charles Darwin would be 200 next year, I propose that we honor his theory of evolution. How to do this exactly? We could provide the "garden" of dance footage on-line and invite everyone to cross-pollinate.Designing this venture challenges everyone and simultaneously pushes the merits of honing an idea.We have a sponsor as of this afternoon.More soon.

Call for Collaborative Editing for dance-tech.net knowledge base and a mashup!

Posted by Marlon Barrios Solano on March 18, 2008 at 12:30am

We are creating this opportunity for collaboration and distributed authorship experimenting with on-line collaborative video editing. I propose to the members of this network to experiment with editing digital content collaboratively using the on-line editing platform JumpCut (http://www.jumpcut.com/dancetechnet). How to collaborate/participate: I am proposing two kinds of collaborative editing products: One that will be geared to develop the knowledge base for our network and another geared to create dance-tech mash-ups in a very open creative way using material generated by all the members. Real video dance mash-ups! Distributed authorship! sampling and remixing! 1.-Knowledge base (interviews, coherent documentation, etc) Editing the interviews for the podcasts of this network has been a great experience, specially because it forced me to constructively dissect the words and ideas of very experienced, smart peers and pioneers in the field. The author of the interview will upload raw cuts/clips from the interviews and its relevant performance/installation video material and any member (anybody) of the network will be able to: 1.-Access the raw material of the interviews and just watch (consumer). It is OK! 2.-Edit an interview with or without relevant material illustrating or augmenting ideas. (Prosumer). Super cool! 3.-You can also upload to your own account in Jumpcut raw material for the network and make it available for for other to edit. 4.-We can also re-edit and re-contextualize the already edited material. What to do? 1.-Create you account in Jumpcut and join to a group called "dance-tech.net/knowledge base". In this way we create a circle of collaborators. 2.-Select an specific "set" of clips for an specific interviewee and create your version. (let us know which one you are working on). The sets will have a name and a"ready for edit". That means that the set is complete from my end, tat I have uploaded al the material that I consider relevant. It is ready go for it! You may also use an edit what is there. 3.-Editing in Jumpcut is very easy and intuitive even more if you have experience with Final Cut or other. the interface is like IMovie on-line. IMPORTANT: the only guideline for the interviews is that you use the material that is given and mix it with the relevant topic. I suggest use simple transitions and no effects that alter color and speed. get krazy with the dance-tech mash-ups! 2.-dance-tech mash-up! 1.-We can create video dances on-line with uploaded material from public domain video material, from the network members or your own. So, if you are into it create your account in JumpCut and join (in Jumpcut) to a group called "dance-tech.net/mash-up" (or "dance-tech.net/knowledge"). In this way we create a circle of collaborators with this specific creative goal. 2.-Tag your uploaded videos "dance-tech.net_mash-up" (or dance-tech.net_knowledge) to know that it is available for this purpose. Your material will be public, therefore it will used for any mash-up within the system. Only upload material that you have created and have cleared any copyrights issue. IMPORTANT: join to the our dance-tech.net group in this network to communicate and give each other feedback and distribute the work load if necessary. We can adjust and learn as we go along! NOTE: Jumpcut does not allow you to export the edited video.
