Day 177 :
I was today at the European Parliament invited by the President Tajani and passed the following message to all the members :
Hey Google and co we love you but shame on you ! Stop saying to authors that they are against technology and for censorship on the net, when they are just asking to negotiate a fair remuneration for their creation used by your platforms big time.. Not allowing authors to get a decent living from their work is like cutting their wings and THIS is the ultimate form of censorship.!
Jour 177 :
J’ai quitté le studio pour être aujourd’hui au parlement européen invité par le Président Tajani pour délivrer le message suivant à ses membres:
Hey Google and co, on vous aime, mais honte à vous aujourd’hui.! Arrêtez d’accuser les auteurs d’être contre la technologie et en faveur d’une censure sur internet, sous prétexte qu’ils demandent une juste rémunération pour leurs créations utilisées très largement par ces plateformes.
Ne pas permettre aux créateurs de gagner leur vie décemment et donc de s’exprimer correctement, voilà la forme ultime de censure..#europeforculture #europeanparliament #google

Excerpts from CISAC President Jean-Michel Jarre addressing European Parliament

Electronic music composer and CISAC President Jean-Michel Jarre spoke to European Parliament on June 26th for the "Cultural heritage in Europe: linking past and future" conference. With a key vote on the EU Copyright Directive to take place on July 5th, the speech also addressed the necessity for Europe to adopt the directive in order to ensure that creators are fairly remunerated.

For more information, and to sign a petition encouraging the European Parliament to help creators in Europe, as well as around the world, please see this petition: http://makeinternetfair.eu/ .

Excerpts of Jean-Michel Jarre's speech can be viewed here: https://multimedia.europarl.europa.eu/e ... 72_01-V_rv .

The term "heritage" too often has a bit of a dusty and old-fashioned connotation: we think of old stones, old buildings, and remnants of bygone days. I am an artist who is often presented as a pioneer of electronic music. So you will not be surprised] my vision of heritage is a dynamic, digital and forward-looking one.

In each European family, there is a child, a brother, a sister, a mother, who dreams of becoming a photographer, a graphic artist, a writer, a filmmaker, a musician, and who will miss out on his or her dreams if we don’t come up with a fair business model for the 21th century - and for the new ways we distribute and consume culture around the world, through the internet and new media.

If we want tomorrow’s European heritage to be as rich as in the past, we simply have to create the means to make that possible.*

How is it that Verdi ended a decent life and Mozart ended in poverty? It’s because one enjoyed intellectual property rights and the other didn’t.What is at stake is the future of the creators of our continent, our culture, and the influence of our artists.

The laws have always lagged behind great technological revolutions. It is not a question of stigmatizing the big players in the internet and saying that the G.A.F.A are our enemies. On the contrary, they must become our interlocutors and our potential partners.

Creators are virtual shareholders of these companies, which develop and enrich themselves through their creative content. It is therefore essential to define a legislative framework to be able to start negotiations with platforms like YouTube, which define themselves as storage platforms and archives, and not as content platforms.*

Those who are against regulating the Internet in the name of freedom of speech, are like those who, at the beginning of the automobile, refused traffic laws in the name of freedom of movement.

The value of the creation has been transferred to those who distribute this creation. That's the problem.

Paradoxically, the creative industries have never been so prosperous, in terms of jobs and turnover. But the creators - the core of these industries - have never received so little. It is necessary to rebalance this distortion.

Today the world is looking at Europe, it is an issue for creators from all over the planet. The directive, if adopted, will inevitably have a domino effect. Europe, so pushed and shoved in recent years, has an opportunity to show its relevance. Otherwise we will miss out on the next Almodovar, the next Coldplay or the next Houellebecq.

Copyright is independent of any lobby, and is the most timeless right available since it is not attached to a physical or digital medium. It is attached to the work itself regardless of the medium by which it will be broadcast in the future.

The creators have always been those who imagine the future, using the techniques of their time to push their creation into the future. It is unacceptable that the idea that respecting intellectual property rights could be an obstacle to freedom of expression and a form of censorship. Not enabling a creator to work is the ultimate censorship.

Artists are not always the best people to defend themselves and their work. They need you, the legislators, to defend them.

The right to intellectual property is one of the fundamental human rights, like ecology thirty years ago. We will be able to survive in this century, on the condition that we evolve in good intelligence with nature and with technology, and that we give ourselves the means to do so.


Speaking of freedom, do we, in Europe, want to become digitally colonized? We must prevent YouTube from being an abusive monopoly, which in the long run would prevent the diversity of offers. Otherwise we will get closer to George Orwell's 1984. Listen, read, look at what you are told! Vote what you are told to vote! The whole issue is here.

Let’s respect diversity and respect creation. A novel, a film, a music, a painting are not jars of yogurt or disposable products. Since the beginning of time who censors whom? They are the ones who hold all the power in their hands, obviously and certainly not the creators who have always been the victims and who have always struggled for freedom of speech.

The notion of intellectual property has taken nearly a century to become a concept accepted by all. The internet is twenty years old, we are in the prehistory of the digital era. It is normal that it is a little chaotic to organize the regulation. It's still the wild west, but the problem today is that the wild west is where the Silicon Valley is located.

We have lost the hardware battle, all the major communication and information broadcasting tools are American or Asian. Europe has the obligation not to lose the software battle, that of the content. This immense creativity which is the essence of our continent’s DNA.

A regulation allowing creators to receive a fair remuneration would ruin companies generating billions of turnover? Let's be serious, there can only be a future for the digital world if it takes into account the people who contribute to create it.

What we want today is very simple: the problem comes from the fact that we rely on ancient laws that date from before the internet, to establish the heritage of tomorrow. Give us the means to sit at the table of negotiations so that European creators and, at the same time, creators from all over the world, can receive a fair share of the revenues generated by the broadcasting and distribution of the creative content on the Internet that we contribute to manufacturing.

Never forget that in a smartphone the smart part is us, the creators.
