Book Synopsis Copyright, Data and Creativity in the Digital Age by : Julian Warner
Download or read book Copyright, Data and Creativity in the Digital Age written by Julian Warner and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2020-09-01 with total page 156 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Supreme Court of the United States in Feist v. Rural (1991) required that databases must have a minimal degree of creativity for copyright. The judgment was highly significant and the subsequent period is understood as the post-Feist era. It has been globally influential. However, the decision is extremely complex and remains unsatisfactorily interpreted. In particular, it has been impossible to illuminate the creativity requirement. The book gives an account of the decision’s conceptual structure, focusing on its full delineation of the opposite to creativity. In a radical and unprecedented innovation, it is correlated with an automatic computational process. Creativity itself is understood as non-computational or directly human activity concerned with meaning. Determining the presence of creativity is reduced to a four-stage test. This work then has acute practical current relevance to property in data in the digital age; it will also be of theoretical interest to, and is aimed at, researchers in, practitioners, and students of intellectual property worldwide.

Each part ends with an essay explaining the significance of one or two landmark or trendsetting cases to help the reader understand the practical implications of the law. Written to be accessible to both lay and legal audiences, this unique collection addresses contemporary legal issues that all creators need to understand and will be essential reading for artists, designers, and musicians as well as the lawyers who represent them.

Book Synopsis Copyright and Creativity by : Andreas Rahmatian
Download or read book Copyright and Creativity written by Andreas Rahmatian and published by Edward Elgar Publishing. This book was released on 2011-10-01 with total page 335 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A fresh, innovative, thought provoking look at the development of copyright law as it pertains to creativity and one that will give even the most experienced reader fresh insight into this tangled area of law. The author s language ability (German, English, French) and interdisciplinary background (law and music) combine to enable him to add significant analytical depth to the subject. A must read in a time when our creative industries are being called upon to help re-build our shattered economy. Charlotte Waelde, University of Exeter, UK Professor Rahmatian is perhaps uniquely placed to offer a complete rethinking of the nature and function of copyright. Working with original materials in original languages, he spans the continental and common law traditions in a breathtaking synthesis of the varied justifications and uses (or misuses) of the concept of creativity as property. Paul J. Heald, University of Georgia, US Copyright and Creativity discusses the making of property out of creative works through the legal mechanism of copyright. It shows the manner in which the law translates a great variety of expressions of the human mind into its normative system and transforms them into the property right of copyright or droit d auteur. This timely book examines the proprietary features of copyright, the inherent limitations of its powers, and its justification and relationship to the non-proprietary realm of the public domain. The final parts of the book deal with the propertisation/commodification of human authors themselves through their works as alienable objects of property, the well-known Romantic author critique as a sophisticated justification of that commodification, and at an international level, neo-feudal and neo-colonial developments as a result of this process. This detailed study will appeal to undergraduate and postgraduate students, legal sociologists, and specialists in copyright, property theory, or legal theory and political philosophy with particular interest in property theory. Practitioners within bodies involved in legal policy, organisations concerned with law reform, European institutions, and international organisations will also find much to interest them in this book.

Download or read book The Eureka Myth written by Jessica Silbey and published by Stanford University Press. This book was released on 2014-12-17 with total page 369 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Are innovation and creativity helped or hindered by our intellectual property laws? In the two hundred plus years since the Constitution enshrined protections for those who create and innovate, we're still debating the merits of IP laws and whether or not they actually work as intended. Artists, scientists, businesses, and the lawyers who serve them, as well as the Americans who benefit from their creations all still wonder: what facilitates innovation and creativity in our digital age? And what role, if any, do our intellectual property laws play in the growth of innovation and creativity in the United States? Incentivizing the "progress of science and the useful arts" has been the goal of intellectual property law since our constitutional beginnings. The Eureka Myth cuts through the current debates and goes straight to the source: the artists and innovators themselves. Silbey makes sense of the intersections between intellectual property law and creative and innovative activity by centering on the stories told by artists, scientists, their employers, lawyers and managers, describing how and why they create and innovate and whether or how IP law plays a role in their activities. Their employers, business partners, managers, and lawyers also describe their role in facilitating the creative and innovative work. Silbey's connections and distinctions made between the stories and statutes serve to inform present and future innovative and creative communities. Breaking new ground in its examination of the U.S. economy and cultural identity, The Eureka Myth draws out new and surprising conclusions about the sometimes misinterpreted relationships between creativity and intellectual property protections.
Book Synopsis The Place of Creativity in Copyright Law by : Sampsung Xiaoxiang Shi
Download or read book The Place of Creativity in Copyright Law written by Sampsung Xiaoxiang Shi and published by . This book was released on 2008 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The negative effects of copyright (and other intellectual property) on the generation and flow of information and knowledge have raised universal concern. In particular, the danger of threatening and stifling creativity caused by the law of copyright has been pointed out and investigated extensively by scholars. The initial intention of copyright law was to encourage learning and continued production of books; however, it 'has developed as a way to reward the haves' and has in fact departed from its original purpose. The aberration of copyright's effects may be attributed to many factors among which the changing social context is a prominent one. The purpose of copyright law is to optimize creativity of people including both authors and users of creative materials. To accomplish this aim, copyright law must maintain a balance between stimulating creativity of authors (and potential authors) through rewarding creation with monopoly rights and enhancing creativity of individual users through encouraging access to information and knowledge. The ways in which such a balance could be sustained may vary in different social contexts. After examining the incentive structure and effect of copyright and arising new possibilities to enhance public literacy and individual creativity, this chapter articulates the purpose of copyright law for this networked information society and furthermore investigates how this aim could be accomplished.

Book Synopsis Creativity and Copyright by : Tabrez Ahmad
Download or read book Creativity and Copyright written by Tabrez Ahmad and published by . This book was released on 2011 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Creativity is a very important aspect of copyright, copyright promotes creativity. Modern copyright law is based upon a theory that increase more copyright protection creativity will increase by itself. This theory has been the driving force behind an economic vision that has expanded, beyond all recognition, the original law created by the Statute of Anne. In every copyrighted material there is presence of some creativeness. If the state provides protection to the authors on their creative works then they will be encouraged and the society will also be encouraged to work more creatively. The changing social context, such as the application of new media and communication technologies, new production of knowledge, and especially the democratization of creativity, has brought about continuing challenges to this regulatory framework. The greater the protection, the greater the reward; the greater the reward, the greater the incentive to create new works; and the greater the incentive to create new works, the greater the number of new works created. According to Macaulay, by increasing the financial bounty available to authors, we ultimately increase the public's bounty of new works of authorship. In other words, copyright law promotes creativity. The moot question is that what should be the amount of creativity in a material to be copyrighted. Many US Supreme Court cases have established the tests and delivered their judgments in order to examine the amount of creativity that is sufficient for copyright protection. There are many creative materials but they are not copyrighted, although they contain creativity because they may be against morality or not under the subject matter of copyright. All these questions can only be understood by referring to the decided cases on this issue. One needs to refer to the legislation and the case laws together to understand the intent of the legislators. In some cases the courts have made creativity criteria very strict for the protection and in some cases they are moderate. The author in this article has tried to show the shift that has been made by judiciary from sweat of the brow to modicum of creativity.
Book Synopsis Reconciling Copyright with Cumulative Creativity by : Giancarlo Frosio

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Reconciling Copyright with Cumulative Creativity: The Third Paradigm examines the long history of creativity, from cave art to digital remix, in order to demonstrate a consistent disparity between the traditional cumulative mechanics of creativity and modern copyright policies. Giancarlo Frosio calls for the return of creativity to an inclusive process, so that the first (pre-modern imitative and collaborative model) and second (post-Romantic copyright model) creative paradigms can be reconciled into an emerging third paradigm which would be seen as a networked peer and user-based collaborative model.

Book Synopsis Copyright Law and Derivative Works by : Omri Rachum-Twaig
Download or read book Copyright Law and Derivative Works written by Omri Rachum-Twaig and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2018-10-26 with total page 339 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Copyright law regulates creativity. It affects the way people create works of authorship ex-ante and affects the status of works of authorship significantly ex-post. But does copyright law really understand creativity? Should legal theories alone inform our regulation of the creative process? This book views copyright law as a law of creativity. It asks whether copyright law understands authorship as other creativity studies fields do. It considers whether copyright law should incorporate non-legal theories, and if so, how it should be adjusted in their light. For this purpose, the book focuses on one of the many rights that copyright law regulates – the right to make a derivative work. A work is considered derivative when it is based on one or more preexisting works. Today, the owner of a work of authorship has the exclusive right to make derivative works based on her original work or to allow others to do so. The book suggests a new way to think about both the right, the tension, and copyright law at large. It proposes relying on non-legal fields like cognitive psychology and genre theories, and offers new legal-theoretical justifications for the right to make derivative works. As the first book to consider the intersection between copyright law, creativity and derivative works, this will be a valuable resource for students, scholars, and practitioners interested in intellectual property and copyright law.

Book Synopsis Making and Unmaking Intellectual Property by : Mario Biagioli
Download or read book Making and Unmaking Intellectual Property written by Mario Biagioli and published by University of Chicago Press. This book was released on 2015-07-31 with total page 476 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Rules regulating access to knowledge are no longer the exclusive province of lawyers and policymakers and instead command the attention of anthropologists, economists, literary theorists, political scientists, artists, historians, and cultural critics. This burgeoning interdisciplinary interest in “intellectual property” has also expanded beyond the conventional categories of patent, copyright, and trademark to encompass a diverse array of topics ranging from traditional knowledge to international trade. Though recognition of the central role played by “knowledge economies” has increased, there is a special urgency associated with present-day inquiries into where rights to information come from, how they are justified, and the ways in which they are deployed. Making and Unmaking Intellectual Property, edited by Mario Biagioli, Peter Jaszi, and Martha Woodmansee, presents a range of diverse—and even conflicting—contemporary perspectives on intellectual property rights and the contested sources of authority associated with them. Examining fundamental concepts and challenging conventional narratives—including those centered around authorship, invention, and the public domain—this book provides a rich introduction to an important intersection of law, culture, and material production.
