Hi everyone, For those of you who came out to or followed the free culture conference this weekend, thank you!! I hope that we can keep having lively and important conversations about free culture-related topics post-conference. Let's start off by joining an excellent book talk at NYU School of Law's Engelberg Center! Hope to see you there! Details below.
Cheers, Jennifer [image: Inline image 1] * **Rob Reid Year Zero Book Talk* *Date: Tuesday, April 30, 2013* *Time: 6:00 - 7:30pm* *Location: NYU School of Law, Lipton Hall, 108 West 3rd Street* *The entire cosmos has been hopelessly hooked on humanity's music ever since "Year Zero" (1977 to us), when American pop songs first reached alien ears. This addiction has driven a vast intergalactic society to commit the biggest copyright violation since the Big Bang. The resulting fines and penalties have bankrupted the whole universe. We humans suddenly own everything-and the aliens are not amused. Nick Carter, a lawyer who knows a thing or two about copyright law, may be the only thing standing between us and total destruction.* * *Join author and entrepreneur Rob Reid for an absurdist look at the institution of copyright, followed by a conversation with David Pashman (General Counsel, Meetup) and a *Year Zero* book signing. Books will be on sale for 20% off. Presented by the Engelberg Center on Innovation Law & Policy. *The event is FREE and open to the public, but s*pace is limited so please register by April 26 at http://yearzero.nyuengelberg.org.
