He has written about the economics and political theory of rules governing telecommunications infrastructure, with a special emphasis on wireless communications, rules governing private control over information, in particular intellectual property, and of relevant aspects of U.S. constitutional law. ----------------------- PHILIPPE AIGRAIN Presentazione in Fiera dell'edizione italiana del libro di Philippe Aigrain (Stampa Alternativa): http://www.fieralibro.it/pages/progScheda.jsp?quarter=3&colore=programma&idEvento=4747&pub=Grande%20Pubblico Sabato 12 maggio, ore 16, Spazio Book Intervengono: Philippe Agrain, Marcello Baraghini, Paolo Beni, Ascanio Celestini, Juan Carlos De Martin Sito italiano libro di Philippe Aigrain: http://www.stampalternativa.it/libri.php?id=978-88-7226-980-0 Sito personale Philippe Aigrain: http://paigrain.debatpublic.net/ I was born in 1949. During and after my training in maths and computer science, I combined schizophrenically software development, information technology research, and the social criticism of the effects of IT on society. Between 1979 and 1983, I decided to try to find a more satisfying way to be a computer scientist. Since then, I have tried to build and to help other build technical tools and processes that help everyone to be more creative, more capable or critical thinking and constructive exchanges with others. This led me: * To develop software and interactive multimedia installations for the mediation of contemporary visual arts and of mathematics (work conducted within non-for-profit associations and microcompanies 1983-1986) * To create and head a research team within the Institut de Recherche en Informatique de Toulouse. This team was active in media content analysis for photographs, video and music, automatic indexing and navigation interfaces, and interactive perception and annotation tools for these media (1986-1996) * To join the European Commission services (ESPRIT and then IST research programmes), where I developed and implemented policy in support to free / open source software. I also tried to be active at the interface between such policy and the harmful regulatory policy of extending patent subject matter, implementing a more restrictive enforcement of copyright, legislating through technology, and creating more severe civil and penal procedures for these matters (1996-2003). I became by force a specialist of positive intellectual rights (as opposed to approaches for which intellectual property is a starting point taken for granted). * To create and head a company that develops free software and provides commercial services for the organisation of public debates and collaborative work over the Internet. In parallel, this company provides technical and organisation support to a number of NGO and citizen initiatives. The company has been active since January 2004. In addition to my technical papers, I have published a number of texts on the sociology of information exchanges and the political philosophy of intellectual rights, including the book “Common Cause: Information Between Commons and Property“, Fayard, 2005. I was one of the founders of the European transnational think-tank Public Debate. I am still active on all these fronts. I also practiced mathematics as an amateur (tree codes, polyomino tilings) and the history of technology a bit more seriously. I support the following NGOs or projects, which I invite you to also support : - Transversales Science-Culture: Transversales is a French multidisciplinary intellectual and political debate arena, that publishes a book collection with the publisher Fayard and an Internet newsletter, and organises thematic events. - Worldwide NGO coalition for the reform of the world intellectual rights system, initiated by the Consumer Project on Technology and the Transatlantic Consumer Dialogue. - The Public Library of Science As far as I know, I am the only “Philippe Aigrain” on this planet.
