Description du projet
Access to and preservation of cultural and scientific resources
The P2P-FUSION project addresses the current difficulties in the legal creative reuse of audio and video media in the Internet environment. It aims to create an open, accessible, legal and economically efficient environment for creative audiovisual cultural activities that can also be based on the work of others and materials from cultural institutions, through built-in, easy-to-use support for suitable licensing schemes.
The project operates in two areas:1= it develops an open, inclusive and extensible technology platform and 2= works with real user communities and evolves new social practices that take advantage of the new capabilities developed in the project
In practical terms, the project aims to create an integrated, easy-to-use peer-to-peer system - the Fusion platform - that allows anyone to publish audiovisual content to the audience they want, without the need to set up and manage video servers and complicated publishing and content management systems.
The system will be scalable, so that it serves intimate and closed community sharing, such as in families, but can equally well be used by large public archives and their global audiences.
The system will support editing in collaboration with other users, based on time-based addressing and distribution of fragments of content, as well as various social processing features, such as annotations, commenting, recommendations, rating and ranking, based on a sophisticated peer-to-peer distributed semantic database. It contains support for embedded licensing information that facilitates legal creative reuse, based on Creative Commons licenses.
It includes a toolkit for creating social media applications for end user communities, with the aim to bring application design close to end-users; it will also be developed in collaboration with end-user communities.
And finally, it is accompanied by a social design process for debating the intellectual property issues that are relevant for the project.
