Landscape, Nature And Travel Photography

On April 17th ASMP is hosting a panel discussion titled “Copyright in a Hyper Digital Age: Copyrights? Copyleft? What rights are left?” This event should be noteworthy for several reason but most notably because of the meetings tone (see below).

This won’t be your father’s Copyright event.

This isn’t a “How to fill out the Federal Forms”, or “Let’s complain about Evil Clients” event.

This will be frank interchange between cutting edge legal minds, prominent creative industry players, and persuasive advocates.

This will be vivid insight and uncensored opinion with audience participation about artists’ rights in the digital age.

Panelists will include:

Mike Linksvayer – Vice President Creative Commons

Vic Perlman – General Counsel ASMP

M.J. Bogatin – Board President of California Lawyers for the Arts

Henry W. Jones, III (Hank) – Former General Counsel and VP of intellectual property of several Silicon Valley tech companies and consultant on Open Source and Intellectual Property rights

Gerald Bybee – Long time professional photographer. Consultant and expert witness on legal cases involving copyright in photography

Panel moderated by Jeff Pfluege

Location: Academy of Art Auditorium & Gallery. 79 New Montgomery, San Francisco

Date and Time: Thursday, April 17th, 7pm

Social hour begins at 6pm
