| Grants/Adopting Highly-Reconfigurable, Networked Cameras for Live-Streamed Meetings + | The author has personal and business connections to all organizations listed save Apertus and Elphel; time constraints and lack of funding have delayed development of a working relationship with these two organization to-date. The author is owner of Open Video Productions, L.L.C., a small company that specializes in services and gear to live-stream, edit, and publish videos of meetings -- all under Creative Commons licenses -- and is also the founder of OpenMeetings.org, a "video wiki" designed to increase the overall availability, discoverability, and liberty to comment on accessioned meetings.

The latter project was approved by the local ministry of education, and was the first primary school to have this kind of project in China). |
| Grants/Approach for a Working Emerging Field Through Scratch for Secondary Students + | The relationship with the community is very close, for years I have taught courses at the same socioeconomic group, the only difference is that I have had to share my knowledge to a older generation (Andres Bello University School of Arts and Technological Institute of Chile, Career Design). I have conducted training workshops in animation using Flash, image manipulation with Photoshop, video editing with Premiere and programming, covering ActionScript, Processing and Arduino. This experience has allowed me to be an observer and facilitator of development and changes occurs with the educational digital platforms in pass ten years. On parallel, I am a researcher in the area of art labeled by some as New Media. In this area I have participated in publications such as aminima:: (http://aminima.net) and ISEA (http://www.isea-web.org/,) and done exhibitions talks and workshops in Chile and in other countries. The last paricipaition I had being was called The Future of the Lab, organizated by Baltan Lab (www.baltanlaboratories.org/?p=1420). I have, therefore, a profile of artist as researcher in this area. For more background (www.autopoietica.net) Parallel to this expirience, I conducted workshops for children, teaching computer graphics in Photoshop and programming in Scratch also. I was the first to conduct workshops Scratch at a public school in Chile, and in two opportunities to participate in Scratch Day. I had show Scratch to Open Community seminars in 2009 at the Technological University of Chile. Currently I’m working ad honorem in the Cutural Center funded by the state, called Matucana 100 (www.m100.cl) to set up a Media Lab. We have assigned, with a group of people, a space in there called Residence. In these sense we dont have the equipment to do the Workshop but we have the space and the comuncational plataform of Matucana 100 Cultural Centre to do activities. One of them will be “Approach for a Working Emerging Field Through Scratch for Secondary Students”. |
| Grants/Arabic Open Educational Resources (OER) Platform + | Jordan Open Source Association (JOSA) is deeply rooted in Jordanian educational organizations. JOSA consists of several student chapters in universities distributed across Jordan. Several initiatives have been already started by JOSA in Jordanian schools including “Firefox Education” and “Linux in Schools”, in addition to a long history of training sessions, lectures and classes organized in collaboration with Jordanian institutions. JOSA is the only Jordanian organization that promotes Open Content and Open Access in Jordan. On the Arab level, JOSA is already linked with the Arab educational community and plans for future collaboration with other institutes. |
| Grants/Assessing the effect of license choice on the use of lexical resources + | Francis Bond is the principal developer of the Japanese WordNet and a member of two projects on WordNet development (the Kyoto Project which brings together the most active European projects; and the Asian WordNet project which is doing the same for Asian WordNets). Kyonghee Paik has extensive experience in machine translation and contrastive linguistic research. Together we represent both the WordNet community and the wider NLP community. |
| Grants/AudioImager + | I have worked as a Creative Commons scholar for the past 5 years. I have worked with the open film project "Star Wreck" and their "Wreck a movie" -platform development team. In my PhD. dissertation I examined how Creative Commons has shaped the "all rights reserved" culture of the copyright ecosystem. My opponent professor Brian Fitzgerald pointed out in his review that the thesis is "unique and innovative in being the first thesis in the world to be completed on the new and very important topic of Creative Commons copyright licensing and how this new approach will impact our culture, society and economy." |
| Grants/Avbi personal : budget tax advisor web tool for Guatemala + | i am a tax payer so im part of that community and have grown in a system that requires tax paying but does not provide the appropriate tools. I am a software developer and have been working over the past 8 years on custom made software for medium and small business which relate to accounting , sales, inventory and related topics which have given the experience to understand the system and what we are lacking hense propose the mentioned proyect. |
| Grants/BatasPinoy Project + | The people behind the project have been in the academe and legal education for many years. With our LawPhil Project (www.lawphil.net) experience, we were able to provide free and open access to Philippine laws, rules and jurisprudence under a CC license, not only to the academe, legal scholars, and law practitioners but also to government, institutions and the public in general. The LawPhil Project in fact is the most popular online legal resource website in the Philippines. This time and unlike LawPhil raw content, BatasPinoy aims to provide value-added content of legal literature/refernce. |
| Grants/Beirut Metblogs + | Our relationship with this community in Beirut is very new and still growing. We've already built the worlds largest network of local blogs, and have been focusing on local media longer than anyone else in the space. We feel there is no better brand to lead the project, and giving that kind of weight to a new site in a new city we believe will be incredibly powerful and inspiring. We've built close to 60 other city blogs around the world so we feel we have the experience needed to do this right. |
| Grants/Best Practices for Startups: Leveraging CC to Optimize Resources + | As a business incubator, BIG Ideas has worked for two years now with young entrepreneurs developing innovative business models and technologies. We have directed workshops with more than 200 entrepreneurs, helping them develop their business plans and then execute them. There are now more than 20 startups actually generating income from the workshops. We have also collaborated with other renown institutions in Guatemala delivering conferences to their members and students. This has allowed BIG Ideas to establish itself as the leading Entrepreneurial organization in Guatemala, with an established network of young entrepreneurs that can take advantage and immediately apply CC-licensing to their businesses and other daily activities. It is also critical for the Incubator itself to familiarize itself and implement CC. |
| Grants/BiDi en Iberoamèrica + | Karisma is a foundation that works with a vision of what "free" and "open" mean. Karisma supports this kind of approach by actively participating in socio-technológical projects such as the FLOSS community and Creative Commons in Colombia, particularly in the educational sector. Karisma is an affiliate institution of CC in Colombia and CC Co-leader Carolina Botero will coordinate the project. |
| Grants/CC Asia Pacific Conference 2010 + | CC Korea has been an active member of the global CC community with strong commitment and extensive experience: We have actively participated in previous CC conferences in Asia and has maintained close friendship with our affiliates in the region. In addition, we have considerable experience of organizing several local and international events, including CC Korea International Conference in 2008. In this regard, CC Korea is recognized by its affiliates as the right jurisdiction for making this year's CC Asia Pacific conference a success. |
| Grants/CC Commentary + | The entity responsible for this proposal is the European Academy of Law and Computing (EEAR). It is a non-profit situated in the Saarland region in south-western Germany and was founded as a public private partnership to build bridges between the worlds of legal pracititioners and IT professionals. This is done through courses, research projects and dialogue sessions with stakeholder in Germany and abroad. The Academy has ties with abroad institutions and individuals in Luxemburg, France, Australia, Russia, Italy and other countries. It co-hosts the main annual conference of experts from the judiciary and public adminitration in Germany. Since 2006 the Academy also hosts the legal project lead for Creatve Commons Germany. This has led to a vast number of cross connections between legal professionals, community projects and online evangelists in Europe, with the Academy fulfilling the role of a facilitator. One of these connections exists between CC Germany and the award winning iRights.info project. iRights offers an independent online knowledge base on IP law for non-lawyers that in its kind is unique in Europe. This is an ideal nucleus for building the group curating the commentary. Other institutions as well as knowledgable individuals have already indicated interest in contributing to this initiative. |
| Grants/CC Full-dome + | In itself, the Artists' House was an organization active in the Weimar arts industry from 1887 until 1945, and is currently enjoying its revival as a community-based non-commercial meeting point for artists of all genres and those interested in supporting the arts. It is a hub of the community, located in the center of the city. We are currently planning our monthly CC Salon, to begin in July. Its director, Daniel Caleb Thompson, has been at the forefront of the local avant garde arts and media scene for the past 10 years. For his final thesis project at Bauhaus-University Weimar in 2004 he made 5 home-brew video projectors and a live holographic presentation system. Furthermore he also helped found the Galerie Eigenheim in Weimar, was its Director from 2008 - 2009 and has spent the past several years acquiring and managing funding for a variety of small to large projects, most recently for the City of Weimar as projects curator for the "Bauhaus Lab" that was funded by EU Culture. One of our key partners is a young full-dome film company, which will be premiering its CC licensed film "SUPER GOLDEN YEARS" in our full-dome on the 9th of October. Our partnership with Bauhaus-University includes the Professor for Experimental Television as well as the lecturer responsible for the Full-dome department at the Media faculty. Additionally, the university center for computing will be providing networking facilities and an array of licenses. The Machine Room is a small community of hackers, DIYers and Linux enthusiasts always ready to get involved in new and exciting projects with media. MX-Wendler is professional VJ server software, however it is currently only available on Macintosh and Windows platforms. We are working closely with its lead developer to resolve porting issues, and hope to release a closed-source but freely available (for non-profit organizations) full-dome alpha version for Linux in early September. Last but not least, our cooperation with the City of Weimar's Cultural Office guarantees the acceptance and promotion of our cultural work from a legal and sociology-political standpoint in Weimar and the State of Thuringia. |
| Grants/CC Latin Policy + | The two project leads have relationships with the targeted community as advisors to many institutions on the implementation of CC licenses in their country. CC project leads of neighbouring countries have similar relationships with local institutions enabling them to recommend potential interviewees. Besides being CC project leads, the two proponents studied CC licenses in their doctoral dissertations and in other publications. Both are interested in open government initiatives worldwide and last May together they developed a workshop in Buenos Aires on Open Government and Open Data: http://www.caicyt.gov.ar/noticias/gobiernos-abiertos-datos-abiertos/. |
| Grants/CC Policy Makers and Industry Leaders Arab World Forum + | I have been involved with CC since March 2003 when, with my colleague Ziad Maraqa, I translated the first CC licenses to Arabic. I have attended several international conferences that were the foundation stone for the development of 'free culture' ideas and the formation of Creative Commons International, including the Internet Law Program in Rio de Janeiro, Brazil (organised by the Berkman Center for Internet and Society) in March 2003. I have experience in running conferences, the most recent being a conference in Amman, Jordan on Copyright in the Digital Age in the Arab Region.

| Grants/CC Uploader for Drupal + | I have been actively contributing to open source solutions and fostering collaboration around those solutions for more than 10 years. I have been developing and implementing solutions within the public access community for the last 2 years. Dr. Lessig had some nice things to say about some code I wrote back in 2005 (http://lessig.org/blog/2005/02/new_code_good_code.html). More recently, I worked with Blaise Alleyn on his Google Summer of Code project to improve the Creative Commons support in Drupal (http://drupal.org/project/creativecommons). I continue to update, maintain, and promote the use of that module within the Drupal community. In addition to my work with public access, I have worked in academic environments with librarians and public broadcasters who could also leverage an Uploader with minimal technical requirements. Though the Knight Foundation funding used to start the Open Media Project has been exhausted, I continue to work with public access stations and organizations providing content to public television improving the Open Media modules as an independent contractor. I am one of very few people who understand the wealth of content public access has in their archive, the APIs of playback servers from several vendors, the technical aspects of Creative Commons licenses, AND the bandwidth limitations at existing stations. I have presented about Creative Commons and video sharing solutions at Alliance for Community Media regional and national conferences, American Library Association Media Librarian Working Group, Open Video Alliance conference, and DrupalCon San Francisco. |
| Grants/CDLD Editions + | We consider we are the best people for the job because of the fact that we run La Periferia (www.galerialaperiferia.com) since 2007 and a previous gallery, Laboratorio Dzityá, which ran throughout 2006. We are also part of the first generation to graduate from the Superior School of Arts of Yucatan (ESAY) (majoring in cultural management), and we have dedicated our work to opening cultural and artistic platforms in the state. In these years as artists, curators and cultural promoters we have had a very positive impact in the city and have earned a reputation in the country for being one of the boldest and most propositive cultural spaces, as well as made important contacts, nationally and internationally. The CDLD project is very important to the gallery as it would form a very important element in the national art scene. |
| Grants/CDLD.ORG / Virtual Documentation Center of the Arts + | Since 2006 we have succesfuly run two contemporary art galleries (Laboratorio Dzityá and La Periferia / www.galerialaperiferia.com). As part of the second project, La Periferia, we have created a documentation center, Laboratorio Dzityá Documentation Center (CDLD) where we have documented the artistic movement in the Yucatan peninsula and Mexico. Our own file starts in 2005 and up to now we have over 100,000 images, more than 200 hours of video and hundreds of manuscripts, newspaper clippings, and books about contemporary art in the country. Our archive would be the first to be uploaded and it would then be completed by collaborators all over Latin America. Also, as it can be seen at the bottom of our webpage, cdld.org, Merida´s City Hall Cultural Council and the Superior School of Arts of Yucatan (ESAY) have supported us in the first year of development (a small grant that ran through 2009 and helped us start the programming) and have agreed to let us have access to their own archives, giving us a direct connection with the city´s cultural community (and directives) and the most important art university of southeastern Mexico. |
| Grants/Cacao, Commons’ Central American Observatory + | Libros Mínimos is a Central American publisher, who first used and promoted the CC Licenses for literature in the whole Central American region. It has many alliances with other Central American publishers and is programming with them the expansion of the project for it to be widely known. The presence of Libros Mínimos in the region allows to have direct contact with users and likely projects. The coordinator of the project Cacao is a Guatemalan writer and journalist who has published poetry, chronicles and articles in different media in the region under CC licenses. |
| Grants/Catalyst Languages + | I have been a teacher of languages in this community for ten years and a department leader for half of that time. We became a specialist school for languages three years ago and have built up an extensive network of other schools whom we support with various language teaching initiatives. I have been at the forefront of these partnership initiatives and am also the loudest voice speaking in favour of enhanced collaboration in an environment where historically schools have been encouraged to compete and keep their resources to themselves. As we create our Virtual Learning Environment, I have convinced most colleagues that our first duty as educators is to model good behaviour by sharing our resources instead of restricting access. Copyright issues and the benefits of Creative Commons are not widely understool throughout the teaching community here. |
| Grants/Central and Eastern European Free Culture Policy Workshop + | Creative Commons Poland, started in 2005, is among the first ten CC jurisdictions worldwide and one of the first ones in the region. Our leads are active in international free culture networking and have experience in organizing and programming a broad range of events (conferences, workshops) related to free culture. |
