[MCN-L] Happpy World's Fair Use Day
Happy World's Fair Use Day -- today. http://worldsfairuseday.org/Worlds_Fair_Use_Day/Worlds_Fair_Use_Day.html World?s Fair Use Day (WFUD) is a free, all-day celebration of the doctrine of fair use: the legal right that allows innovators and creators to make particular uses of copyrighted materials. WFUD will take place at the Newseum in Washington D.C. on Tuesday January 12, 2010, and will be organized by Public Knowledge (PK), a Washington D.C.-based non-profit, consumer-advocacy group. PK works to ensure that communications and intellectual property policies encourage creativity, further free expression and discourse and provide universal access to knowledge. As part of its campaign to return balance to copyright law, PK hopes to use WFUD to educate the public about the importance of fair use in an information society. WFUD will be widely attended and will provide attendees with a unique opportunity to network with policymakers, artists, academics, business innovators, media professionals, press, and consumer advocates.
[MCN-L] Free Culture X – 2010 - Wash. DC - Feb 13, 14
If you can't make it to DC today for World's Fair Use Day, there's more in February: Free Culture X ? the 2010 Conference of Students for Free Culture ? will be held February 13th and 14th in Washington, D.C. In October 2008, hundreds of students, activists, coders and scholars gathered at UC Berkeley for Free Culture 2008. Between illuminating panel discussions and productive unconference sessions, the free culture community networked and planned for the future. ...Now, a little more than a year later, Students for Free Culture will be convening the international free culture community for two days of networking, learning and acting. Free Culture X, the 2010 conference of SFC, will take place on February 13th and 14th at George Washington University in Washington, D.C. The vision is to bring together student activists and free culture luminaries to discuss, among other topics, free software and open standards, open access scholarship, open educational resources, network neutrality, and university patent policy, especially in the context of higher education. Jonathan Zittrain, Professor of Law at Harvard Law School and faculty co-director of Berkman Center for Internet Society, will provide the keynote address. We would like to hear ideas for the second day?s workshops. If you have ideas, send them out to the FC X mailing listhttp://freeculture.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/conf10 or add them to the call for workshop proposalshttp://conference.freeculture.org/workshops/ and we?ll collect them.
