Here is the link for you… enjoy! (and… thanks Eva for letting me know about it!)

Also: Ann Danylkiw, a PhD student at Goldsmiths, who was a super extra active twitter on the day, wrote this blog entry on i-Docs.

And finally: Alex Butterwoth, the author of The World That Never Was , did write the following article on Illuminations’ blog.

Voila’, if you did not manage to be with us those blogs should give you a flavour of the day. Also, do watch out the i-Docs website – as we should soon upload some video of the day…

I knew that film makers such as Brett Gaylor had been promoting RIP: a remix manifesto as an “open source documentary”, but when I read that BBC2 was starting the production of Digital Revolution (a 4 hrs documentary about the Web) – and that they too called it an “open source documentary” I started smelling a rat… what is going on? What is this hype about open sourcing video?

The several posts of this blog, and following discussions with  BBC and Brett Gaylor, lead me to write an article.

My question is: what does it really mean to open source a documentary? How can the ideology of free software and open collaboration in code influence a new style of documentary making?

I would like to open the  discussion on this. Please feel free read the article, comment and feed-back. I am not an expert on free software so I might have missed some points… but also I am wondering where to place this article. Is it useful for film makers? Is it mainly academic stuff?

Please do let me know…
