Session title: Remixing Open Culture: Create your own Propaganda Poster
- Session type: Demonstration
- Track: GLAM
- Language: en
Art is often meant to provoke and convince. In this workshop, we will use public domain art to create propaganda posters to share our favorite reasons to go Open in the Cultural Heritage Sector.
Description
editPublic domain works give us a wealth of content that we can reuse, remix, and create new art and content.
With a supply of Public Domain art, some printed slogans, messages and words related to Open Access, and other crafting supplies we will help you to create your own Open Culture propaganda. During this workshop, we will talk about how to remix and properly credit public domain works, while also allowing you to use your own creativity to promote better sharing of GLAM collections. You may use some suggested messages or create your own. Some themes you might think about promoting in your propaganda include: Open Culture… enriches research, education and learning to solve the world’s biggest problems enlivens arts, culture and creativity to help us live richer lives promotes diversity, inclusivity and equity to sustain democratic and resilient societies propels institutions into the digital world to ensure their continued relevance, mission alignment and service orientation
Together we’ll brainstorm some catch-phrases to promote Open Culture and then use our favorites to create your own mini - poster. If you permit, these posters will be digitized and some shared on CC Social Media and Wiki Commons under the category “Open Culture Remix Posters”.
