Peer-to-peer video sharing : from v2v to HighNoon

New Global Vision, V2V et HighNoon are digital video archive projects. The goal is to build up a network of dedicated ftp servers and a peer-to-peer file sharing system able to overcome the bandwidth problems related to the size of video files.

New Global Vision is based on a crew that works together in a network and from the network start to structure the project, to share knowledges, experiences and resources, to develop communication. Videos are downloadable on tape or cd in vhs quality (compressed with mpeg1 or divx codec) and represent an expression of issues raised by the global movement against corporate capitalism, a critical glance on reality, a free speech & indypendent information product.
Our common feeling is that we are under the pressure of a pervasive and powerful information system, that points exclusively to consensus manipulation and political support. We think information is something different: to fight mainstream dis-information we need to implement the effectiveness of the tools we're able to immediately develop or quicky build up.
NGV is based mostly on free software and technologies that allow you to download or upload videos: if you want to download you can join the peer to peer network, leaving the files online, in order to obtain the most visibility for the files in the different share networks. The existence on web of all the titles of the archive is guaranteed by dedicated ftp servers.
We're thinking of implementing a system of open publishing for the videomakers... for the moment if you want to upload a video, please contact us at ngv@ecn.org.
