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

2010-01-12 Thread Amalyah Keshet [akes...@imj.org.il]
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.

Deb (and Brooklyn Museum),

Kudos!  This is great.

Your post was too much of a teaser for me to let stand ; )   For 
those MCN'ers who feel the same way, see Shelly Bernstein's blog post 
today at 
http://www.brooklynmuseum.org/community/blogosphere/bloggers/tag/copyright.

I'd appreciate your time, promise to not take too much of it, and will
be happy to keep your name and Museum information confidential if
you'd prefer.
With many thanks,
