notes conversation 0525
questioning the conditions under which you publish
article on piece by Esther Solomon (translation by Catherina): piece is seen as an example of cultural extractivism
https://cuadernosdedanza.com.ar/textosdanzacontemporanea/602/cultural-extractivism-is-the-subtraction-of-an-ancestral-knowledge-or-an-art-to-destroying-it
continue to think about authorship & licensing
strange tension between staying with the trouble of F/LOSS and the problematics of extractivist appropriation
would like to use the week to make a step in this
in conversation with other participants of the session
piece where Solomon uses movements of Mapuche people on stage
celebrates the almost lost movements without generosity
also in relation of Kristen's and Agrawal's text from the reader

link to Eva Weinmayr on work of referencing/citation practises
link to work of Roel with Ayméric on Fediverse - look at how Fediverse proposes different possibilities of access
link to work of people of Cinemas Sauvages: desire to share material wihtout restriction and understanding that it doesn't work that way all the time
link to Clara, working with levels of opacity
where did culture belong before being extracted.
in cinemas sauvages less about authroship-ownership, but wanting to circulate without being extracted. > without ending in streaming services etc..
people have anti-capiltalist practises and don't want material ending up in commercial streaming services
how knowledge and culture circulate inside structures
books organised by author puts a weight on authorship that is maybe not necessary
Decolonial media license: try and rewrite it?
https://freeculture.org/About/license#Decolonial_Media_License_0.1
as long as we don't do other proposals, we stick to Free Art License

Rosemary: thinking of larger project at Mayday Rooms, some questions are similar, some go directly against it
what sort of practises are we dealing with?
MR: political ephemera, might be interesting to think it in relation to archive that wants to 'do' something instead of giving access
less universal open access more partisan archives
in terms of materials, 16000 documents in mayday rooms..
physical archive, close relationship with depositors
question of rights often become conversation
"haunting rights"
haunting ownership over stuff thta has to do with legacy rather than property.
ex communist conviction is not applied to archive, materials taken out of ocntext, serving someone's career
they never imagined that it would become part of an archive, part of political historical tendency
it gets more attention, material was meant for short period of time vs archival time & visibility
this often comes with age, nearing the end of their life
is interested in insistance of free software licenses to not reign over the grave
comes close to moving cultural artifact from context, and making people outrageous
MR: study day of Mayday Room
