AncillaryIPs: The wave

By Gavin Artz- January 22nd 2010

Origonally published on Mission Models Money

http://www.missionmodelsmoney.org.uk/blog/guest-posts/ancillaryips-the-wave/

“if I had asked people what they wanted, they would have said faster horses”

- Henry Ford.

Commercialisation of intellectual property by creative practitioners has gone mostly unnoticed by the mainstream economy. Artsactive have a small catalogue of patents that have been derived from creative practice, but as a standard revenue stream it is poorly explored. At the Australian Network for Art and Technology (ANAT) we work with artists who are at the very forefront of science and emerging technology. It was noticed that through the processes encouraged by ANAT, artists were creating intellectual property when they encountered a technical roadblock in their work. They created code, machinery or processes in their endeavours to over come problems in achieving their creative vision. These AncillaryIPs (Artz 2008) had been mostly overlooked More >

Creative Cultural Practice and the Commercial in Harmony

By Gavin Artz- January 14th 2010

Originally published on Mission Models Money

http://www.missionmodelsmoney.org.uk/blog/guest-posts/creative-cultural-practice-and-the-commercial-in-harmony/

“No culture can live, if it attempts to be exclusive.”
- Mohandas Gandhi


As CEO of the Australian Network for Art and Technology (ANAT) I have experienced artists going through the patent process, rapid prototyping, engaging in scientific research and producing new applications in digital media.  There is a myth about those involved in creative practice, that they are not interested in business.  There is a difference though between not wanting to be a businessperson and not wanting to be involved in business.  Many creative practitioners are interested in engaging with business, being commercial, but they want to pursue their creative vision and not spend a majority of there time focused on business outcomes.  We have a creative core in our societies that are some of our lowest income earners (Throsby & Hollister 2003); that seems absurd when we are told the economy relies on people creatively resolving problems.

    why AncillaryIPs

    “if I had asked people what they wanted, they would have said faster horses”

    - Henry Ford.

    The vision that drives pure research is the true driver of economic, cultural and community prosperity.  Currently our societies and economies have difficulty in reconciling the speculative and the commercial.

    Unique intellectual property is being created every day and we waste it.

    There is a way though that artists, scientists and all those engaged in pure research can focus on that research and still generate commercial outcomes.     AncillaryIPs gives us this capacity.

    AncillaryIPs occur when, in the course of a practitioner pursuing their vision of a final work, they encounter difficulties that require the development of a technology, device, process or code.  These tools become the basis for IP commercialisation. In this way an appropriate commercial value is placed on pure research, allowing for the long term necessity of pure research to have a significant long and short term economic, cultural and social impact.

    AncillaryIPs looks to the tools created in the arts and sciences and applies them to resolve like problems in other aspects of life.   This model relies on pure research and the technical problems that this activity generates.  It is this outstretching drive of pure exploration that means new and unique problems will be encountered and that new and unique solutions will be found to over come them.

    The Wave Diagram shows how creative practitioners continually generate IP in the course of their work.  This IP has been created to resolve a problem, so it is just a case of finding a like problem that the IP can resolve; giving a considerable head start in the R&D process.

    The Complex Wave Diagram shows the relationship between business and the creative practitioner.  The creative practitioner lays golden eggs for their entire creative life. The commercialisation business benefits from the creative practitioner focusing on their work and having the income to continue doing so.  It is a long term relationship where both parties benefit.

    The arts, innovation and commercial opportunities

    By Gavin Artz – August 24th 2009

    Originally published for ISEA 2009

    The Australian Network for Art and Technology (ANAT) has been working with art, science and technology for 21 years. It has only been relatively recent that the innovation potential of the arts, particularly those working with technology, has been understood. Myths relating to artists not wishing to be commercial and the active marginalising of the arts in intellectual property (IP) development has meant that the arts are overlooked as a source for commercially viable IP. Through my work at ANAT I have experienced artists going through the patent process, rapid prototyping, engaging in scientific research and producing new applications in digital media. More >

    Art, Living Culture and the Entrepreneurial Mind

    By Gavin Artz – August 4th 2008

    Originally published Music Forum. Journal of the Music Council of Australia

    Vol. 15 No. 4, August – October 2009. ISSN 1327-9300


    If art were a part of our living culture would we recognize it as art?

    In the digital age one of the biggest conundrums for business is how to find successful models for generating revenue from digital activity. Facebook doesn’t generate as much revenue as its value would suggest it should and digital business is finding it has a commodity that is highly valued in a cultural and social sense, but consumers are not willing to put any commercial value on it (Oreskovic, 2009). Those artists whose practise is in digital media would probably be able to relate to this problem. More >

    Artistic practice and unexpected intellectual property: Defining Ancillary IPs

    By Gavin Artz – July 9th 2008

    Originally published by CHASS

    http://www.chass.org.au/papers/PAP20080709GA.php

    This brief paper was inspired by a presentation In April 2008 where, as the General Manager of the Australian Network for Art and Technology (ANAT), I addressed a CHASS workshop on Art and Innovation. After the presentation it became apparent that ANAT, in some ways, had been charting its own course in answering the question of the best way to get innovation from creative pursuit. ANAT had been using internal models that had been developed to help guide the organisation and these models were not being used outside of ANAT. One of the main concepts that highlighted a point of difference was a concept I had developed of Ancillary IPs. More >

    March 31st 2008

    http://www.chass.org.au/events/2008/art/

    At CHASS’s 2008 The Arts, and the Innovation Agenda Workshop Ancillary IPs gets its first mention by Gavin Artz in a presentation on how commercial outcomes can be developed from artistic practice without diminishing the artist’s creative vision. Although only a small part of the presentation it struck a cord with academics and artists in the audience.
