It is my great pleasure to announce the release of Open Content Licensing:
Cultivating the Creative Commons, a new publication of Sydney University
Press (http://www.sup.usyd.edu.au) in conjunction with the Queensland
University of Technology (http://www.qut.edu.au) and the ARC Centre for
Excellence for Creative Industries and Innovation (http://www.cci.edu.au).
Edited by the Creative Commons Australia project lead, Professor Brian
Fitzgerald, Open Content Licensing: Cultivating the Creative Commons brings
together papers from some of the most prominent thinkers of our time on the
internet, law and the importance of open content licensing in the digital
age.
Drawing on material presented at the Queensland University of Technology
conference of the same name in January 2005, the text provides a snapshot of
the thoughts of over 30 Australian and international experts - including
Professor Lawrence Lessig, Futurist Richard Neville and the Hon Justice
Ronald Sackville - on topics surrounding the international Creative Commons,
from the landmark Eldred v Ashcroft copyright term decision to the
legalities of digital sampling in a remix world.
