First of all i would like to thank the organizer for the work they put all into that project and the realization of the CC09. The Cologne Commons was a great experience and also a chance for the shared culture to express herself. It was a nice mixture of keynotes and performed creative commons music. It was also a opportunity for people how never heard before about creative commons to get a deeper look into the whole scene and sharing concept. Beside that not only the publisher also the producers of free music where informed about digital right management and viral promotion ways. A highlight for me was also the lovely designed netlabel-exhibition on unique designed charts for each netlabel.(you can find some pictures of that exhibition and more impressions at flickr) I am looking forward to the Cologne Commons part II in 2010.

What you can see above is my video statement for the cologne commons conference.  It was “taped” a few weeks ago at the Kunstwerk in Cologne where also the Conference takes place.  For our dear visitors outside of Germany i say something like that: My Name is Markus from Modularfield. We publish all our releases under creative commons license. We gift our music to give not established artis the opportunity to spread there music to the audience. We do this away from any trends or results accounting. Because music is in first line… a heart thing!

Our chief officer of programming: Kay. Has finally finished  after some jQuery sessions the new artist- and release section. Its no more necessary to scroll to the bottom of each page to get a overview. Now you can comfortably move your mouse over the different artist and releases to get a full size image and click them to continue your surfing. Also we are working hard on a new compilation which should be ready within the next days. So stay tuned for some more urbanelectronicmusic from modularfield. Also i hope to see somebody of you around at the Cologne Commons – Conference // Festival at the upcoming weekend (12-13.06) in Cologne (Kunstwerk during the day conference about free music // Gebäude 9 festivall part).

Expect the unexpected. Ore something like that came this morning into my mind as i was looking across the monday post. I wrote a few days ago an article about the donation to the creative commons organization. And today this letter of thanks reached my postbox including a nice sticker witch will i probably put onto the back of my notebook. If you also want to support the creative commons take a look here. And if you around cologne betwen the 12.06.2009 and 13.06.2009 you are invited to join the cologne commons conference and get also in touch with the creative commons network. Also i will soon finish a university project about the open ed community ass soon this is done i will put my work here online.

I don´t know if it s a new hobby from me to enter one platform after the next wit modularfield content but i thought it would be very nice to present our cover Artwork at Flickr. By the way its my favorite platform for creative commons picture work. If you always wanted to brows among all our album artworks now your time has come. Fell free to take a look at the Modularfield Gallery. Maybe if you also around Flicker you like to connect. Feel free to drop us a friend request .

After getting all the releases together now i have finally time to write something about the history of modularfield and putting together some picture galleries of past events. I started with tow articles. The first is about the history of modularfield from 2006 until now or “the way from dcc-records to mdf”. I try to summaries in a few words more than 3 years of label history. I hope that plan worked out. The second article is about the cover shoot for the latest release mdf02. So take a look into the Modularfield Diary.
