[OpenGLAM] Call for artists that use a CC-license

[Adrian Pohl]

Hello Joris,

Creative Commons themselves released a publication in 2011 called "The
Power of Open".[1] You probably know of it. I think you could actually
re-use the whole or parts of it. From the website:

"Creative Commons created the legal and technical infrastructure that
allows effective sharing of knowledge, art and data by individuals,
organizations and governments. More importantly, millions of creators
took advantage of that infrastructure to share work that enriches the
global commons for all humanity.

The Power of Open collects the stories of those creators. Some are
like ProPublica, a Pulitzer Prize-winning investigative news
organization that uses CC while partnering with the world’s largest
media companies. Others like nomadic filmmaker Vincent Moon use CC
licensing as an essential element of a lifestyle of openness in
pursuit of creativity. The breadth of uses is as great as the
creativity of the individuals and organizations choosing to open their
content, art and ideas to the rest of the world."

All the best
Adrian
