FOX and YOUTUBE here is an oppertunity going to waste.

Wired is one of the top magazines and has some klout.

I came across an interesting article on Wired.com


http://www.wired.com/dangerroom/tag/voice-of-god-weapon/

Which linked to Youtube "Gob's greatest illusion - the yacht disappears"

"This video contains content from FOX, who has blocked it on copyright grounds."

What a missed opportunity. If I were a share holder I'd be getting a little upset about this by now.

I mean Wired I am sure would be more then happy to license this clip as it would any still or clip from FOX I know there are middlemen that do just that for traditional Broadcast medium.

What this just a miss step on Wired part?
Is this because the author didn't know to use some obscure streaming service that does just this very thing? 

So in the end, Wired who I am sure would be a happy paying customer, get's an unprofessional result. 

Shut down by Fox through Youtube, the only thing not turning this FAIL/FAIL in to profitable WIN/WIN is a small amount of Code and an agreement by the lawyers and the suits.

Just imagine how it would also empower others who also wish to include a video that references modern popular culture.

We need a new model.

We need a new model.

Treating intangibles as a service makes far more sense then placing the intangible on something tangible. With a bar code, or now days RF id. Then try to charge for it as if it were a bar of soap or a bag of pretzels. That worked well for a while, maybe 80 years. Right up until people started to gain tools work with intangibles. 

So they thought they could fix it with laws, technical hacks, lawyers and finally police.

The Internet's created much apprehension for those that control the purveyance of intangibles.
It's up to us to re-invent, re-educate and forge new solutions or there only be further escalations.

I was thinking of compensation right and credits right instead of copyright. Some standards as to what the rules are for that content are that can be placed in to simple machine parse-able form of metadata.

As much as I love FOSS and P2P, You need to be able pay if you want talented people. We weren't all born rich, or willing to live in abject poverty to hack code. Been there done that, not fun after a while.
Does anyone have any ideas or opinions?

Norton you suck!!!

How did Norton AntiVirus become a scourge to video and anyone running demos.

They push in on to PC's without users even know it, then start popping up Expired Notices, so much for LG's canned video demo in the Fry's store. No one has access to a mouse or Keyboard, yet Norton managed to shove there error message over it.

I remember at time when they were the coolest virus protection company, but when you can't watch a movie at home or play games without this popup it becomes a detriment to anyone making an embedded product.

WELCOME TO THE GLOBAL REVOLUTION!

It's wonderful to see the live streaming video that I pioneered through the 90's getting used to change the world.

Internet video is going to play a very large part of our future, more them most people will ever realize.  It will define our next generation of children coming up.

From :  http://globalrevolution.tv/

If your dream is to change the world together with the rest of the 99%, with unity, equality, and mutual respect, organized horizontally, under the demand for basic human rights to be given to all humans, as the power of governments, corporations and banks recede behind the horizon of the future, then we invite you to join us.

MTV LAUNCH FIRST DAY SATURDAY 12:01 am AUGUST 1st , 1981 1st hour Part 1

I remember watching this.

This is what MTV was about, it's totally screwed up these day.

If someone could recapture that in a streaming video web site they'd be golden.

William Gibson: talks about non-mediaited human beings

"It's increasingly difficult to find people who have not been affected by the media. It's very difficult to find non-mediaited human beings." - William Gibson
mediaited which is different then mediated.

It's an interesting term with some potential.  It's not mediate like when a mediator negotiate between parties, but instead, it means exposted to the influence of the news, TV/Radio media,  I am thinking it's a description of those people exposed to the stream of meme's pushed by mass media that has the effect of wipeing out local pockets of unique culture and music and other forms of art.


William Gibson: No Maps for These Territories


Mark Neale directs this prolonged conversation with William Gibson (famed science-fiction novelist and creator of the term "cyberspace") from the back of Gibson's limousine as they take a cross-country odyssey over nameless highways going no place in particular. The cameras roll as Gibson talks about his own personal philosophies, experiences, and opinions about the media-saturated culture in which we live. The conversation provides a compelling glimpse at the radical, genius writer whose 1984 novel NEUROMANCER forever changed the concept of the Internet, propelling the author to the forefront of the media explosion of the late 20th Century. Neale, a music video director, employs hyper speed editing and jarring visuals that combines various media images with excerpts of Gibson's novels, conveying a conceptual journey through the unchartered territory of William Gibson's mind. This slick and stylish visual trip also features interviews with writers Jack Womack and Bruce Sterling, readings from U2's Bono and The Edge, and music from Tomandandy.

Video display clothing.

Fans of an artist can walk around with a video of there favorite musician or movies playing on there backpack. (audio on or off)

This can be a whole new revenue stream for the industry.

The idea is to make a clear plastic pocket in shirts, jackets and backpacks designed for these displays to be held.  Make standardized pocket sizes.
Clothing is sold with cardboard inserts with photos in it, but you can buy your digital players separately preloaded with videos, images & music.

Unplugging the cable articles coming.

Just saw a great movie "Chandni Chowk to China". It's a Bollywood Kung Fu movie. It was available on blockbuster streaming to by Samsung BD-P3600 BlueRay player. I plan to write a series of Articles on how and why I unplugged my family from Television to go to 100% Internet video and what the experience has been like...

For starters it's good to finally get the full 1080p video experience.

Now for the Wacky Idea: first run movies on Bit Torrent.

I have the rights to make a movie based on a famous SciFi writer short story who just passed.

After 3 years of rejections from Hollywood, I was thinking that maybe we can fund the movie with donations and grants and release the movie freely (GPL style) over Bit Torrent and BlueRay and then see what it will take to get it played in theaters. I really think it would be so cool and set a whole new model for film production, copyleft movies. Am I a nut job or is this just crazy enough to work?

If you have any thoughts on that please leave a comment.

Update:
South Park To Be Available Online Free and Legal
http://entertainment.slashdot.org/article.pl?sid=08/03/27/175241"

South Park is coming online, free and legal. My brief research has not indicated if it will use DRM, require some silly Windows-only software or be otherwise substandard. According to a Wired blog article, 'Parker and Stone said they were inspired to start the site when they got 'really sick of having to download our own show illegally all the time. So we gave ourselves a legal alternative.'" In this regard South Park joins fellow Comedy Central notable The Daily Show with Jon Stewart, whose archive was made freely available online late last year.
