Hi all, back from the wide horizons (about 30 miles in west texas). I'm
going to be attending the following straight after the Oxford Brookes
symposium. Seems like a sensible thing to do given that i'm on this list
and the states of various list's ructions. I'll attempt a report back in
its wake and that might include some of my own revised thoughts on the
rights of 'the copy' and the ship of 'the author'. Click to
http://www.cl.cam.ac.uk/CODE/ for additional info including some
provocative relevant texts:
International Conference on Collaboration and Ownership in the Digital Economy
Queens' College, Cambridge
4 - 6 April 2001
Intellectual property rights in the digital
era - is the digital revolution a legal as well as a cultural watershed?
How can we balance public responsibility against private reward?
Practitioners and thinkers spanning the arts, sciences, technology and the
law will address these issues at
CODE. Join them in the debate on whether collaboration and ownership can
co-exist in the digital economy.
_______
The full programme features sessions on 'Recovering Collectivity',
'Copyright - v- Community', 'Private Interests: Freedom and Control', 'The
Art of Code', 'Distributing Knowledge : Reward and Responsibility' -
looks hearty and promising.
See some of you there perhaps
love and love
