Description

"Open Video Conference - June 19-20, 2009 - New York City - 40 Washington Square South (NYU Law School)

The Open Video Conference:

The conference is a co-production of the Yale Law School Information Society Project, the Participatory Culture Foundation, Kaltura, and iCommons. The conference will feature talks from internet luminaries, panels and discussions, screenings of video art, and demonstrations of the newest internet video technology. We expect more than 400 participants. Here are some goals for the gathering:


  • 1.* Bring together stakeholders in the online video space (video makers,

coders, lawyers, academics, entrepreneurs, etc.) for cross-pollination and development of the Open Video movement.

  • 2.* Raise public interest and awareness around the Principles for an Open

Video Ecosystem, a community effort to define best practices in online video.

  • 3.* Raise the public profile of video creators and artists working in the

online space."
