Revision as of 12:13, 8 June 2010
Describe the project you are proposing as clearly as possible in just five sentences.
Bar-Ax Promotions, which promotes Iranian musicians and songwriters worldwide, aims to convene a workshop in Istanbul where Iranian musicians represented by Bar-Ax, together with other Middle Eastern musicians, can build an understanding to adapt Creative Commons tools and licenses in their work.
Detail the tangible project output (e.g., paper, blog post, written materials, video/film, etc.; this would be in addition to the final written report that successful grant recipients will be expected to deliver to CC at the conclusion of the project).
The project should result in a video to introduce CC to a wider audience. In addition, our excellent contacts within the Persian media abroad might result in press coverage about the event.
Describe the community you are targeting. How would the project benefit the community?
Bar-Ax targets young Iranian musicians, both men and women, on their path to professionalise their talent, as well as helping to promote, license and share their music globally.br />
Bar-Ax represents Iranian contemporary and alternative musicians. Our website hosts more than 75 underground music bands. We are providing musicians with recording guides, copyright and legal consultancy, PR, thus facilitating performances and advancing networking. Most recent ventures include an alternative Iranian Arts Festival in March 2010. Another success has been a compilation CD of 14 underground bands in collaboration with Songlines magazine. Bar-Ax is a dynamic and very promising initiative that plays an important role in supporting and promoting the Iranian music community under difficult circumstances.
How will you measure and evaluate your project’s impact - on your main participants? Other contributors? On the larger community?
The success of the project will be measured by two indicators: participants adapting the licenses in their work, and participants introducing CC in their video interviews, in Farsi.
How many participants do you expect to be involved in your project? How will you seek and sustain their involvement?
There will be 8 participants in this project. Bar-Ax will sustain their involvement by representing them in other fields-as are provided within Bar-ax- including PR, facilitating performances and distributing their music.
