BrainstormingThis is a featured page

Components:

Branding: DIY brand identity for org. running collection society. possible names: libertas.

Organization Potential: Could this organization be a catalyst to create the type of consumer DIY organization with its own set of principles that we mentioned after Cory and Jen's talk?

Collection Society: initial thoughts? It would be best to find someone with serious cred in the indie music business and go from there. From exp. in approaching people based on my films, we're wasting anyones time until we have licenses drafted for them to review/show we're for real.

Licenses: USC Law first choice. 2nd anyone from EFF that would help draft them? Also, Berkman Center?

The legal work:

  1. Incorporating the society (501(c)3?)
  2. Drafting the artist/society agreement
  3. Drafting the society/university license

Bands: USC undergrads. There already on board.

ISPs: Approach via schools. Small colleges prob. have best 1st shot. If we get USC Digital Connections on board, approach through channels.

Initial Stages:
  • Who will own the project? Oversee it and stay with it?
  • Some non-profit entity would need to be created? Who will create the same?
    • Institution to collect and disperse collections
    • Do you start from scratch or approach Magnatone, pre-existing indie, no-DRM label?
    • You need entity to ground project and pt. person for partnership w/ legal team.
  • Who would qualify for society? Would it be open to any band w/ Myspace?
