MacJams adds Creative Commons

MacJams adds Creative Commons 06/14/2004 09:21 PM

Several months ago, Apple released the music software Garageband, allowing anyone with a mac to make some music. Soon after the release, community websites sprang up to allow Garageband users to share music with each other, and build songs together. This is a perfect use for Creative Commons licenses, and earlier we noted that the site Macband added our licenses to their site. We were delighted to hear that MacJ ams has also incorporated Creative Commons licenses into their song uploading process.

So if you're a Garageband user that needs some drum loops or other song parts to share, check out Macband and MacJams.

MacJams.com has announced a new community-based music hardware and software recommendation system called the "RecRoom." The MacJams RecRoom allows users to rate and submit reviews about thousands of products for musicians. Because all reviews and recommendations come from MacJam's almost 8,000 mac musician membership, the intent is to provide information regarding compatibility and performance of products when used with the Mac platform and programs such as GarageBand, Soundtrack, Logic, etc. Anyone may browse and search the RecRoom database, and any registered MacJams user (registration is free) may submit their own recommendations and ratings.

Cuban artists

Cuban artists 01/07/2004 04:27 PM

One of our friends has a young Cuban lover and she goes to visit him there periodically.  This situation spurred some reflection:  "Why are there so many artists and musicians in Cuba?"The next thought "Well, why not?"In the U.S. when Johnny decides to ignore his family's advice and take up oil painting or guitar playing instead of investment banking it is a big crisis.Johnny is very likely giving up the opportunity to own real estate, send his kids to private school, and otherwise enjoy the great festival of materialism that is the United States.  In an economy with hardly any opportunity, however, why wouldn't a person choose to do art or music?

Art doesn't require a lot of capital investment.  You really just need a crayon and some paper (or scissors and paper if you were Matisse).  If human ability is equally distributed across the globe you'd therefore expect the best art to come from the poorest countries where people have no competing bourgeois job offers.  Yet paradoxically the art for which people are willing to pay the most money seems to come from advanced economies such as Germany, England, Japan, and the U.S.

For the comment section:  Why?

[I'll start by throwing out a personal opinion:  art can only touch you if the artist shares a similar social and economic environment, which is why Westerners mostly like the art that is produced in Western countries; art produced in poor countries is actually much better but we can't appreciate it because, despite heavy doses of ecotourism, we can't understand the milieu in which it was produced.]

State of the Artists

State of the Artists 04/22/2004 10:44 AM
My latest article for TheFeature.com is now online. It's about art that incorporates, and sometimes critiques, mobile technology:

"Research laboratories are the avant-garde art galleries of the 21st century. That shouldn't come as a surprise though. Art is a lens through which engineers can raise tough questions about the science fictions that they create, and we inhabit."

Fant astical paintings from Chinese artist Fang He. I think I like Subway Underpass Bird best for its vague sense of creepiness, though Chinese Pavilion No. 1 appeals to my love of old time sci-fi illustrations. Check out similarly whimsical Zhang Gong's cute p hallic creatures (NSFW), or peruse the large collection of artists at Courtyard-Gallery. (Related Chinese art posts here and here.)
