Susan Kaup has an extra press pass for a cool conference:
The conference will revolve around 3 themes:
Is all art derivative? Is the borrowing that goes on now in an old tradition or is it somehow different? Is the distinction between new and derivative meaningful?
New Technologies are enabling new genres, creators and business models--but are simultaneously challenging traditional ones. What are the changes and responses, and will our shared culture benefit overall?
Artists have a spectrum of reactions to downstream uses of their work. Reactions vary according to the type and purpose of the reuse, e.g., commercial or fandom; private or public; political or entertainment. What drives these reactions and how should society balance artists' rights and interests with the public's?
