Center for Digital Discourse and Culture

The Center for Digital Discourse and Culture is pleased to announce our Front Pages Collection, an archive of newspaper coverage of the April 16 tragedy. The hundreds of front pages posted on this site were given to the Center by a thoughtful individual in the aftermath of the shootings. Together, they capture a wide variety of responses to, and representations of, the events and aftermath of April 16 from around the world. The collection is organized by geographic location. It can be accessed at: http://april16archive.org/frontpages/

will speak about:

The State of the Copyfight

If law's titles are to be believed, we're a decade into the "Digital
Millennium." That's meant 10 years in which weak encryption has barred
the hacking of copyright's "technical protection measures," in which
ISPs have responded to takedown notices claiming copyright infringement,
even where the use of copyrighted material was fair, but also a decade
of remixing and technologically fueled creativity. We'll examine the
state of the copyfight, through Chilling Effects, RIAA lawsuits, effects
on technical innovation, and prospects for copyright reform and
activism.
