The Process

Nonterritorial's production team handles the complete transformation from physical work to circulation-ready exhibition. The process begins with professional cinematic documentation—not archival recording, but deliberate filmmaking that treats your work as subject for a new medium. Our team coordinates filming on location (your studio, storage, or exhibition space), working with cinematographers who understand both technical requirements and artistic sensitivity.

You provide access to the works and any contextual materials; we handle equipment, crew, and post-production. The resulting footage enters our curatorial framework, where it's structured into a generative exhibition—one that maintains consistent identity while never playing identically twice, adapting to duration and context at each venue.

The timeline from initial conversation to network-ready exhibition typically runs 8-12 weeks, depending on collection scope and location logistics. Once complete, your exhibition enters the network permanently—available for licensing by any host worldwide, generating revenue with every deployment. You retain all rights to original works; what circulates is the cinematic exhibition itself.

Each license fee splits automatically through smart contracts: you receive your share instantly, no invoicing, no waiting, no intermediaries. Production costs can be structured three ways: the commissioning fund covers invited projects; exhibitors in a position to do so can commission production directly, accelerating their entry into the network; or costs can be structured as a partnership where initial licensing revenue recoups the investment before standard splits apply.
