EEEFAX ABOUT EEEFAXP.400
░ WHAT IS EEEFAX?
EEEFAX IS AN INDEPENDENT NEWS AND ALERTS SERVICE PROVIDED BY ELECTRASY, A UK ROCK BAND, TO TRACK THE IMPACT OF AI AND STREAMING ON THE LIVES AND LIVELIHOODS OF MUSICIANS AND VISUAL ARTISTS.
░ WHY DO THIS?
OVER THE LAST DECADE, STREAMING HAS FUNDAMENTALLY BROKEN THE ECONOMICS OF MAKING MUSIC. SPOTIFY PAYS BETWEEN $0.003 AND $0.005 PER STREAM — MEANING AN ARTIST NEEDS AROUND 250 PLAYS TO EARN A SINGLE DOLLAR. TO REACH UK MINIMUM WAGE FROM STREAMING ALONE, A MUSICIAN WOULD NEED OVER 1.5 MILLION STREAMS EVERY MONTH. 80% OF ALL STREAMS GO TO JUST 2% OF ARTISTS. SESSION WORK, SYNC FEES, AND LIVE INCOME HAVE ALL CONTRACTED. NOW AI IS ACCELERATING THAT EROSION — GENERATING MUSIC IN SECONDS, TRAINED ON ARTISTS' WORK WITHOUT CONSENT OR PAYMENT, AND UNDERCUTTING THE LAST REVENUE STREAMS THAT KEPT INDEPENDENT MUSICIANS AFLOAT. EEEFAX EXISTS BECAUSE SOMEONE HAS TO KEEP COUNT.
░ WHAT WE COVER
▶ AI TRAINING USING ARTISTIC WORK WITHOUT CONSENT
▶ STREAMING ROYALTY RATES AND PLATFORM POLICIES
▶ LEGAL CASES, LEGISLATION AND ARTIST ORGANISING
