Title: [eccr] creative industries conference

>http://www.creativecapital.nl
>
>
>Programme
>March 17 -|- March 18
>
>The conference aims to design a new public agenda that connects culture,
>innovation and the public domain in the knowledge economy. To this goal,
>innovation experts, economists, social innovators, cultural entrepreneurs,
>urbanists and public policy makers are being brought together.
>Internationally renowned key note speakers like Charles Leadbeater,
>Charles Landry, Stephen Graham, Pekka Himanen, Joichi Ito and Geoff Mulgan
>will give their views on how to build crossovers between culture and
>economy. In afternoon sessions these crossovers will be further explored
>and translated into a public agenda. Therein, the following themes will be
>addressed:
>
>Creative Crossovers
>The time of industrial innovation models is over. No longer does
>innovation only take place within knowledge institutions or company
>laboratories. Innovation has become an open process of constantly making
>new combinations. New players like intermediary institutions, small
>companies and creative individuals enter the field. Separate domains
>become networked. Innovation is open, crossovers are crucial. What are the
>success criteria for such creative crossovers to take place? What are new
>models for innovation? What role does culture play in this process? And
>the public domain?
>
>Creative Clusters
>Design, film, entertainment, music, games: these creative industries are
>considered drivers of economic growth with great potential, both by adding
>economic value to products and services as through creating new jobs. Yet,
>to define the creative industries and their role in the economic process
>still seems to be difficult. How does the process of creative production
>differ from industrial production? Can we speak of creative industries or
>are creative clusters a better term? In what kind of environments will
>these creative clusters grow and flourish? These are all key questions for
>designing a public agenda.
>
>Creative Cities
>In the knowledge economy, cities are competing on the international level
>to provide the best climate for innovation and creativity. This becomes
>clear in the debate on the creative city, a concept that is vividly being
>discussed. What are successful strategies and what are necessary
>conditions? Because making a city creative is much more than having a
>vibrant cultural scene. The key question is: how to organise a local
>environment that harbours and breeds creativity?
>
>Creative Commons
>In virtual environments creativity also becomes an issue of growing
>importance. Digital technologies make unlimited sharing, editing and
>copying of creative work possible. That offers new opportunities, but
>control is also a much heard request. Without control no incentive to
>create. However, control could lead to regulation that kills creativity
>and innovation. Moreover, public goods like free information, public
>content and social software could be endangered by too strict protection
>laws. So, how do we organise a creative public domain in the digital era
>but protect the people who create? And what does this means for producers
>and consumers of creative work? And what role do schools, museums and
>public media have? Representatives from the Creative Commons movement in
>Europe will discuss these questions with each other and the conference
>participants.
>
>The Creative Capital conference will be opened by Job Cohen (mayor of
>Amsterdam) and Judith van Kranendonk (Director General Culture & Media of
>Ministry of Education, Culture and Science).
