Video Vortex Conference: November 30 and December 1 2007, Amsterdam (NL)
Organized by the Institute of Network Cultures

First announcement (shorter air version), March 16, 2007

More on the Event: http://www.networkcultures.org/videovortex/
List info:
http://listcultures.org/mailman/listinfo/videovortex_listcultures.org

In response to the increasing potential for video to become a
significant form of personal media on the Internet, this conference
examines the key issues that are emerging around the independent
production and distribution of online video content. What are artists
and activists responses to the popularity of 'user-generated content'
websites? Is corporate backlash eminent?

After years of talk about digital conversions and crossmedia platforms
we are now witnessing the merger of the Internet and television at a
pace that no one predicted. For the baby boom generation, that
currently forms the film and television establishment, the media
organisations and conglomerates, this unfolds as a complete nightmare.
Not only because of copyright issues but increasingly due to the shift
of audience to vlogging and video-sharing websites as part of the
development of a broader participatory culture.

The opening night will feature live acts, performances and lectures
under the banner of video slamming. We will trace the history from
short film to one-minute videos to the first experiments with streaming
media and online video, along with exploring the way VJs and media
artists are accessing and using online archives.

The Video Vortex conference aims to contextualize these latest
developments through presenting continuities and discontinuities in the
artistic, activist and mainstream perspective of the last few decades.
Unlike the way online video presents itself as the latest and greatest,
there are long threads to be woven into the history of visual art,
cinema and documentary production. The rise of the database as the
dominant form of storing and accessing cultural artifacts has a rich
tradition that still needs to be explored. The conference aims to raise
the following questions:

- How are people utilising the potential to independently produce and
distribute independent video content on the Internet?
- What are the alternatives to the proprietary standards currently
being developed?
- What are the commercial objectives that mass media is imposing on
user-generated content and video-sharing databases?
- What is the underlying economics of online video in the age of
unlimited uploads?
- How autonomous are vloggers within the broader domain of mass media?
- How are cinema, television and video art being affected by the
development of a ubiquitous online video practice?
- What type of aesthetic and narrative issues does the database pose
for online video practice?

Conference themes:

Viral Video critique
Vlogging Critique
Participatory Culture, Participatory Video
Real World Tools and Technologies
Theory  History of the Database
Narrative and the Cinematic
Database Taxonomy and Navigation
Internet Video: Art, Activism, and Public Media
Evening Programme / Exhibition

(see website for details)

Video Vortex Discussion List:

With this discussion list we like to gather responses to the rise of
YouTube and similar online video databases. What does YouTube tell us
about the state of art in visual culture? Is YouTube the corporate
media structure of the 21st century? What are the artist responses to
YouTube aesthetics?

[videoblogging] Re: video within a video

2007-03-17 Thread Bill Cammack
The way it's done in FCP is:
1) Place your video you want to be the small window in the timeline
2) Double click that clip so it goes into the viewer
2) Select the tab at the top of the viewer that says Motion
3) Inside Basic Motion, Change the Scale so it's less than 100
4) Also inside Basic Motion, next to where it says Center, there's
a circle with a + in it.  Click that, and move the cursor to the
canvas.  The cursor will turn into a + and when you press and hold
the mouse button, you'll be able to place your picture-in-picture
anywhere you want it.
5) Also in the Motion tab, you might want to add a Drop Shadow.
6) Place the clip you just edited on a higher video track than your
fullscreen video.


I assume it works exactly the same way in FCE.

I'll be there as well.  I was invited by Eric from Gardenfork.tv to talk
about video podcasting.. I don't think either of us have a plan for the
session, so it will just serve whoever comes.
http://office.wreckandsalvage.com/?p=31

Personally I'm just looking forward to hanging out with other
VIDEOBLOGGERS AND VIDEOBOGGEERS. etc.

I don't have any idea what any of this is about.  But I bet I'll end up
drunk.

Re: [videoblogging] Re: Video editing on Linux?

2007-03-17 Thread Mike Meiser
On 3/16/07, Bill Streeter [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote:
 Try VLC again. I don't have much experience with it on Linux, but
 I've used it on Windows quite a bit and it handles most MOV's and
 MP4's (including h264) well.

Thanks for the advice Bill. I absolutely LOVE VLC.. it is the best
video player hands down on Mac, Windows, and Linux in my opinion. The
problem is the VLC plugins. They're too new... not well developed. I
think they only started developing 3-6 months ago.

That said I AM going to check them out again, and I do expect them to
make rapid advances.

I believe in VLC so much so that I'm already on one mailing list and
looking for more info. Hopefully I can help in the same unofficial way
as the early days of fireant and blip. They could really use our
support...

AND most importantly this ISN'T just about linux. If the VLC plugins
get really good this could mean ALL firefox browsers on all platforms
one day might be able to include by default a set of video plugins
that handle ALL or nearly all media.   There might... might be some
legal issues with some of the codecs..  but hells bells... even if you
have to download the plugin seperately this could be a HUGE coup for
the media world because it would create like Firefox itself a platform
for the much more rapid evolving of open standards... whereas firefox
helped with CSS and other web based standards... a cross platform
plugin and media player system could extend standards and end-to-end
interoperability for media like ogg-orvis out ward through our media
world.

The browser is the new platform as many have noted.  Open source
multimedia packages, plugins, and codecs are the key to seriously
opening up this new world so one day a kid with a $10 video camera and
a $100 linux computer can actually post some decent photos and videos.
It's also the key to evolving beyond the current mess of video codec
incompatibilities, and not just in web browsers... but it'll extend
outward rapidly to affect future hardware as well.

Without open source innovation would come to a stand still in this
space... and we'll all be pedaling our wares on commercial enties
ideas of new and innovative platforms... like the blueray and HDDVD...
you know... if you can afford thousands of dollars in overhead and
dealing with completely anti-DIY, anti-consumer technology to begin
with.

Damn,

I'm rambling ferociously.

Sorry, it's late.

Thanks for the advice Bill. Rock over St. Louis. Rock on chicago.  (a
bastardized reference, but I'm sure you can tell me who it is anyway,
he's right up your alley. ;)

  I'm about to go back and give VLC a second try though.
 
  I'm hoping some linux guru will pop up and say there's some package
  that everyone swears by.
 
  Until then, I'll be googling around the web desperately looking for

  BTW, the Flash and Real Player plugin's work great.
 
  I just can't play MOV's, MP4's and other downloadable formats.

 Mike,

 You might want to have a look at mplayer and its plugins

 mplayer:

 http://www.mplayerhq.hu/design7/news.html

 mplayer-plugin

 http://mplayerplug-in.sourceforge.net/faq.php

 Its for mozilla but might work for Firefox too.

 If I have time I might try to get it working later.

Thanks Mark!

I'm on it!

I hadn't thought of mplayer. Before VLC came along and eclipsed it
Mplayer was my love. In fact it was my first love for open source
media playback. VLC has evolved just a little quicker.

Any other advice you have I could desperately use.

BTW... among other things I was looking for something to replace
itunes and I could sync my ipod with. The best thing I've read about
so far seems to be Yamipod as you can put it ON your ipod and it works
on all platforms... windows, linux and mac. Which rules. It doesn't do
podcast aggregation though I don't think.

For podcast aggregation I'm also looking into myPodder, just as long
as it'll work with more than podcast ready. (I use mefeedia and odeo
as well.)

Perhaps Yamipod and myPodder is the perfect one two combination.  But
in case they aren't I'm also looking at Rythmbox, Amarok. and banshee.
Banshee is new to me but highly recommended, doesn't do podcast
aggregation though I don't think.  I've used rythmbox in the past it's
capable, but not much more... and Amarok is the new kid on the block,
I can't wait to try it! Some rave reviews of it.

I tell you all this in the hopes you if not someone else will pick up
on it. Lot's of name dropping of software apps and platforms.

I'm moving my entire desktop over to linux so I'm going to be reading
up on, researching and talking about a whole wide range of linxu
software. Ideally I'd even like to do a little video editing on linux,
which is what attracted me to this thread. I will almost definitely
always have a Mac laptop... starting to eye the new linux ones. (Love
how parrellels crossover handles linux and windows.) However, other
then the laptop I hope to never run another OS that's not open source
again... that's the dream anyway.

Re: [videoblogging] video within a video

2007-03-17 Thread Jen Simmons
yes.
put the main video (the one you want to be the big one) on the  
timeline, as usual -- putting it on the V1 track - or the lowest one.
then overwrite edit the clip that will be the little video onto a  
higher up track -- V2 or anything higher.
It should be that the bottom one is totally covered up by the top  
one, but it is still there.
Now Double click on the top video in the timeline -- which opens that  
clip in the Viewer window (and you've opened that particular instance  
of that clip -- not the original clip. Very important, so be sure to  
double click on the piece of video that is in the timeline)
Next looking at the Viewer window, click on the motion tab. In there  
somewhere (i'm writing this from memory, not from looking in FCP - so  
you might need to poke around a bit) there's a control to resize the  
video. Right now it says 100%. You can make it 25% or 20% or whatever  
you want. That will shrink the video. To move it over in the corner,  
you can either change the numbers that are in this box (right now  
center = 0, 0. To move it down and right I think you could type 160,  
120 or something like that. Or maybe it's 160, -120.) OR instead of  
doing it by numbers, you can just grab the video and move it. To do  
that
1) looking that the canvas window, there's a little icon above the  
video image that has a pull down menu -- you need to set that window  
to image and wireframe. This will give you the handles for dragging.
2) Make sure the playhead is in the right place on the timeline so  
you are looking at the part of the video that you want to edit (and  
not something else later or earlier).
3) Grab the little video and drag it to where you want.

And for the cheap here's how you do video-in-video using Quicktime Pro.

* Open both videos.
* Select the part you want to appear as the video in video content and  
copy it
* Go to your main video and put the playhead where you want the  
video-in-video to begin
* Paste
* Open Show Movie Properties (Command+J on a Mac) and go to visual settings
* Select the new video track (most likely called 'video track 2'
* Scale it
* Choose position (defaults to upper left)
* Export movie

 watch a main channel, and show a second channel in a smaller window
 down in the corner.

 Is it possible to create the equivalent with Final Cut Express, and
 how would it be done? Or is
 Final Cut Pro/Studio required?

 Thanks!

At our last event a lot of people mentioned Brooklyn is budding to be


new Silicon Alley/startup central. What do you all think of doing an


event (either an official NextNY event or a semi-unofficial gathering)


in Brooklyn to see who's doing good stuff here?



If you're interested, please post all the Brooklyn startups you know


of so we can be sure to invite them. Also we'd have to decide what


part of Brooklyn to aim for. My vote's for DUMBO


(http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/DUMBO,_Brooklyn) because our office is


there and it's closest to Manhattan (where I live), but I'd venture


deeper into the depths of Brooklyn if necessary.

Yes, that is how I do it in FCE.

On 17 Mar 2007 00:35:50 -0700, Bill Cammack [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote:
 The way it's done in FCP is:
 1) Place your video you want to be the small window in the timeline
 2) Double click that clip so it goes into the viewer
 2) Select the tab at the top of the viewer that says Motion
 3) Inside Basic Motion, Change the Scale so it's less than 100
 4) Also inside Basic Motion, next to where it says Center, there's
 a circle with a + in it.  Click that, and move the cursor to the
 canvas.  The cursor will turn into a + and when you press and hold
 the mouse button, you'll be able to place your picture-in-picture
 anywhere you want it.
 5) Also in the Motion tab, you might want to add a Drop Shadow.
 6) Place the clip you just edited on a higher video track than your
 fullscreen video.


 I assume it works exactly the same way in FCE.

I agree. The Twitter site design is horrible. With it's popularity

Right about importance of design.

Try setting up a my space page, and that will prove your point a lot

It certainly appears to be what the site does, not how well the interface

[videoblogging] new vlog: Dirty Diaper Diaries

2007-03-17 Thread Andy Carvin
Hi everyone,

Some of you may have heard that my wife Susanne and I
have been putting together a new video blog about all
the things we're learning as first-time parents. We're
now ready to show off some of the first pilot videos.
The vlog is called Dirty Diaper Diaries, and Susanne
has produced three videos so far. 

http://www.dirtydiaperdiaries.com

The production values still need improvement, and
we're planning to buy some new equipment to help out
on that front, particularly regarding the audio. So
for now, we're interested in getting feedback on the
overall premise and the topics. Along with an intro
video, we've got pieces on how to pack a diaperbag and
how to breastfeed in public. Soon we'll have videos
about air travel with infants, baby-proofing your
home, and other topics; I may also do a video for new
dads about how to change a diaper. Looking forward to
that one. :-/

We're also hoping to set up a video comments system,
so people can reply with video clips as well as text.
We've already played around with vlip, flikzor,
magnify.net and a few other tools that provide video
comments. If anyone has suggestions of other tools for
doing this, please let me know. 

thanks,
andy

[videoblogging] Snapz ProX users help needed!!

2007-03-17 Thread humancloner1997
I use the SnapzProX program to capture music videos from the Internet.
 Then I export them (through iMovie) to my mini-DV camera and then
burn DVD's of the musice videos I think are worth saving.

Initially, I captured videos at the recommended 8HZ and 15 frames
per second rate.

Now I have been using 16HZ and the 30 frames per secdond rate which is
the best quality of capture. It seems to make everything better.

There seems to be a huge difference in quality and sound but not
always.  Some videos on the Internet (especially from YouTube) are
very low quality.

I'd like to hear form others who use SnapaZ Pro to capture music
videos.  I am also wondering how Veoh's Veoh Client software which
enables you to download the highest quality video might be used to
get better video in this manner.

Re: [videoblogging] tip: macbook pro HOT issue resolved for me

2007-03-17 Thread Mike Meiser
Howdy sull,

Unbforetuneatly this app is only for intel macs.

I've dug and dug and dug and I can't find a single widget for
controlling the fan on my G4 powerbook.

Nothin'   :(

 So I bought a macbook pro 3 months ago and my only real complaint has been
 the ridiculous heat that this thing has radiated out.
 Using the keyboard and mouse pad or having this thing on my lap has not been
 comfortable at all.  It has just been much too hot and even painful to
 touch.
 I contemplated selling it because of this discomfort.  For a pricey
 computer, this was unacceptable.

 Apple just wanted me to have them work on it But I held back for
 awhile.
 Some research told me about thermal grease being overly used inside this
 thing which may have been causing macbooks to run at high temperatures.  See
 this pic for example -

 The solution was to crack open the macbook pro and . well... no.  I wont
 do that yet either!
 But this is a cool article with pics:
 http://www.oreillynet.com/pub/a/mac/2006/05/23/thermal-paste-question.html

 So, a comment somewhere pointed out a much simpler and free solution...  And
 this actually turned out to work perfectly.
 Its a simple free open source fan control!

 Now my macbook pro, even when charging battery (thats when it usually got
 the hottest) stays cool with my fan control settings.
 The default fan config on the macbook pro is very low and you cant change
 it.  So this is an awesome solution which took minutes.

 So i'm happy now.  Just in case anyone else needed to know there ya go.
