A new session has recently been accepted to the Crossroads in
Cultural Studies Conference in Tampere, Finland 29 June-
2 July 2002. Information on the conference can be found online at:
http://www.crossroads2002.com/
The aim of this session is to help foster an environment where issues
of authorship, copyright and creativity could be discussed
on shared turf, as it were, beyond the boundaries of various
departments and disciplines.
Author ): Intellectual Property and Contemporary
Authorship
At the intersection of aesthetic authorship and legal rights
ownership lies a fertile knot of ethics, rhetoric, aesthetics,
cultural politics and techno-econimics. This session aims to
engage with the fissures, overlaps, and ambiguities of authorship
in contemporary, globalised economic and technological
environments.
Paper should engage with authorship/ownership in music,
literature, or the visual arts through various cultural
mediations: legal structures, technology, globalisation processes,
identitarian politics, stances of anonymity and
resistance, etc. Key issues will concern collaborative/multiple
authorship, author/rights-owner divergence, the ethics and
rhetoric of piracy, passivity/activity in consumption, reception
of intellectual property discourse in the popular media, among
others. The goal for this session to create an environment for
exchange and lively debate on authorship the practical
realities of intellectual and artistic property in our global
moment and to open up this compelling area to interdisciplinary
inquiry.
