Changes will be reflected after the next update at 4AM.This text tries to explain the author rights conditions that apply to the work that is produced in the context of the Iterations.

The project and everybody involved validate collective creations and wish to contribute to a sustainable ecology of work. A practice we support is to be able to benefit from work that has been done before, and to allow creators and practicioners to be able to build upon it for future purposes.

The conditions under which the 'work' can be used, are by default described in the terms and conditions of the Free Art License 1.3 
The Free Art License grants the right to freely copy, distribute, and transform creative works without infringing the author’s rights.
(please read full license here: http://artlibre.org/licence/lal/en/   

Since this license is made to be applied to 'works' as in 'artworks', we would like to point out that our understanding of the term 'work' also includes the 'labour' that is necessary to produce that work. Think of 'artworking'. Also documentation, traces, files, working documents, texts, or any other type of content and derivients are considered to be 'work'.

We encourage you to radically use the work and experiment with collective authorship. Might any question arise about the legal status of your collective authorship experiments, please contact the Iterations organisors, or the author of the Free Art License.

 Following: a paragraph on the license approach of the Sicily Iteration
    trying to annotate the discussion that was held around the specific approach of the Iterations in Sicily: 
        Fred feels more comfortable if the artists in the residency in Sicily are not beforehand asked to comply with the FAL. We talked about that a possible solution is that Fred describes the specific license situation for that occasion. 
        points: 
            - at moment that the artists who are involved discuss which material they will pass over to Hangar, they also determine the license under which this is done. They are not obliged to agree to the FAL beforehand. 

- Trasformatorio artist should be free to give or not give the material of his output to the iteration
- There is no obligation to show, if you show the work is open for furthere transformation, its materiality is up to the artist to consider if to donate to the site (if site specific work)
- Trasformatorio asks to be credited in derivative works and in derivative collaboration work
- if the handover iteration is taken in account, its licence goes through to the next iteartion therefore all voluntary contribution by the artist goes with it
