Fan Interaction and Collaborative Work
j.viewz has advocated interacting and collaborating with fans in the artistic process. While making rivers and homes, Dagan created a sample library made of processed spoken word recordings sent by fans from around the world. The sample technique was named The Pad of Luvin' and used as an intro of a song it later inspired called “Oh, Something's Quiet,” featuring vocalist Kelli Scarr.
In 2012, along with a production team headed by film directors Eran Amir and Shelly Carmel, j.viewz shot a video to the title track off rivers and homes. They then printed out every frame of the video and handed images out to fans in the audience during a tour. 2,000 images and 300 fans were used in the making of the video. The frames were then assembled together to create a stop motion video which presented a unique Taggable Player, in which fans could Tag themselves on individual frames of the video. This video was nominated for an MTV O Music Award ("Most Innovative Video") and a UK Music Video Award ("The Innovation Award").
After releasing the fan-funded album, j.viewz created a “backstage site” which consisted of all the content created in the album-making process, including artwork by the various visual artists who took part in the process, fan mixes, and demo versions. The content was made available to fans as part of the album purchase.

Famous quotes containing the words fan, interaction and/or work:
“Hard times accounted in large part for the fact that the exposition was a financial disappointment in its first year, but Sally Rand and her fan dancers accomplished what applied science had failed to do, and the exposition closed in 1934 with a net profit, which was donated to participating cultural institutions, excluding Sally Rand.”

“Recent studies that have investigated maternal satisfaction have found this to be a better prediction of mother-child interaction than work status alone. More important for the overall quality of interaction with their children than simply whether the mother works or not, these studies suggest, is how satisfied the mother is with her role as worker or homemaker. Satisfied women are consistently more warm, involved, playful, stimulating and effective with their children than unsatisfied women.”
—Alison Clarke-Stewart (20th century)
“‘Tis not need we know our every thought
Or see the work shop where each mask is wrought
Wherefrom we view the world of box and pit,
Careless of wear, just so the mask shall fit
And serve our jape’s turn for a night or two.”
—Ezra Pound (1885–1972)
