Copyright is all about fixation
Fixation is all about technology &
social norms
I do not agree with what you have to say, but I'll
defend to the death your right to say it. Voltaire

Authorship & copyright are inventions of technology
Exodus 20:14




THE WICKED BIBLE (1631)
Wheras printers, booksellers, and other persons,
        have of late frequently taken the liberty of
 printing... books, and other writings, without the
      consent of the authors... to their very great
detriment, and too often to the ruin of them and
     their families: For preventing therefore such
               practices for the future, and for the
 encouragement of learned men to compose and
                               write useful books…

The digital is the original

Interfaces of knowledge
Anything that is in the world when you’re born is 
 normal and ordinary and is just a natural part of 
     the way the world works. Anything that’s 
invented between when you’re fifteen and thirty­
  five is new and exciting and revolutionary and 
    you can probably get a career in it. Anything 
   invented after you’re thirty­five is against the 
              natural order of things.

digitalization
Analog / Digital
•   Copy inferior          •   There is no copy
•   Limited nr of copies   •   Infinite nr
•   Copying in real time   •   Timeless
•   Cost                   •   Without cost
two dominant truths

1. No cash, No Creation
2. Everything Is property
Two incredible & strange
  ideas… that WORKED
STALLMAN PROVED EMPIRICALLY THAT
ECONOMIC RETURNS WERE NOT A
REQUIREMENT FOR CREATION…


But geeks are different?
WALES PROVED STALLMAN’S IDEAS SCALED
& APPLIED TO NON-SPECIALIST GROUPS


Yet we still cling to the analogue myths.

The printers, Robert Barker and Martin Lucas, are said to have been fined 300 pounds for the offense, a huge sum at that time, and had their printers' license revoked. It is believed that only 11 of the original 1,000 have survived.

  20. Upphovsrätten bygger på idén att det alster som någon, vem som helst, du eller jag, eller någon annan, skapat , också skall ha rätt att bestämma över detta verk på samma sätt som om det vore en ägodel . Om man ser upphovsrättens verk som en sak , är det lättare att förstå hur principerna och regelkomplexet runt detta. Ingen av oss skulle väl kunna tänka sig att utan lov , gå in till grannen och ta med sig de saker som finns där efter tycke och smak. Dessutom är det brottsligt och kallas för stöld . När det gäller upphovsrätten gäller samma regler, fast vi använder andra ord, upphovsrättsintrång t ex. Att skydda upphovsrätten har ansetts vara viktigt över hela världen. Det finns världsomspännande regler på området. Bernkonventionen från 1898 är den äldsta.

  23. BIRD RED SLICE by Koko Abstract by Koko. 10 x 12 acrylic on canvas, 1984 http://www.koko.org/world/art_abstracts.html#UNTITLED2 Koko (born July 4, 1971, at San Francisco Zoo) is a Western Lowland Gorilla who, according to Francine 'Penny' Patterson, is able to understand more than 1,000 signs based on American Sign Language, [1] and understand approximately 2,000 words of spoken English. [2] . As with other ape language experiments, the degree to which Koko masters these signs has been controversial, as has been the degree to which such mastery demonstrates language abilities. Koko has lived most of her life in Woodside, California, although a move to a sanctuary in Maui, Hawaii, has been planned since the 1990s. [3] . Koko is short for the name Hanabiko ( 花火子 , lit. "fireworks child" ? ) in Japanese, a reference to her date of birth, the Fourth of July. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Koko_%28gorilla%29
