Mycelium
Created by Kevin McArthur
Mycelium is a new way of thinking about politics. Integrating multiple streams of data, it allows bloggers to report on the activities of the House of Commons.
The Video contained and displayed by this application is duplicated from the parlvu feed, and is the copyright of the Speaker of the House. This is an unofficial reproduction and provided to be maximally compliant with House of Commons Guidelines.
This application is setup to make up to 5 minute slices of house video, and provide a link and embeddable url for use on your blog.
Create A Slice
Creating a slice with Mycelium is easy, just watch the question period video in the top-left, when you want to start slicing, enter the time code [bottom left of the player] in the start time field below. When you want to stop recording, enter the time code in the end time field. Then press create slice.
You may slice up to 5 minutes of video.
Terms of Use
Please note that we attach no additional copyright to the video on this site.
There is no guarantee any sort of uptime for this application, nor is there any guarantee that the recorder will work every day and properly save the commons stream. Your slices may be removed or disabled without notice for any reason especially including violation of copyright [commercial use for example... see This Report for more info on usage restrictions]. We will also disable videos from time to time for using too much bandwidth, or during regular maintenance to free disk space. The priority of this application is to provide the best service for news reporting and thus newer slices will be given disk/transfer priority.
This facility is intended only to excerpt small amounts of material from the daily stream. If you require a full copy of Question Period then you should obtain a live stream through ParlVU or archived copies through the House of Commons. The clips provided by ParlVU and the HoC are of a higher quality than those found on this site and are a far superior resource.
