**STRATEGIES OF SHARING: THE DEPTFORD.TV PROJECT*
*
How can we produce collaborative work within a creative or artistic context? Which are the complexities of such an undertaking? Which are the strategies of sharing?


Deptford.TV is a research project on collaborative film-making initiated by Adnan Hadzi in collaboration with the Deckspace media lab, Bitnik collective, Boundless project, Liquid Culture initiative, and Goldsmiths College. The project started on September 2005. It is an online media database documenting the regeneration process of Deptford, in South-East London. Deptford.TV functions as an open, collaborative platform that allows artists, filmmakers and people living and working around Deptford to store, share, re-edit and redistribute the documentation of the regeneration process.

Deptford.TV is an open, collaborative project, which means that:
a) audiences can become producers by submitting their own footage,
b) the interface that is being used enables the contributors to discuss and interact with each other through the database.


Deptford.TV is a form of 'television', since audiences are able to choose edited 'timelines' they would like to watch; at the same time they have the option to comment on or change the actual content. Deptford.TV makes use of licenses such as the Creative Commons and Gnu General Public License to allow and enhance this politics of sharing.

In the summer of 2006 we asked some of the contributors of the Deptford.TV project to give us feedback about their experience of working together and sharing the outcomes of this collaboration –whereas film, software, sound, live performance or other– not just with each other, but with everybody interested. Our aim was to understand and illuminate the strategies employed in various practices of sharing. As Deptford.TV is not affiliated with any one institution, we do not need to ensure any 'politically correct' answers. Instead, we aim to accommodate some raw, 'un-beautified' responses –just like the Deptford.TV database hosts rough, primary materials audiences do not normally have access to.
