Creative Commons Canada Salon – Open Licensing and the Working Artist

A large part of the origins of the Creative Commons license was the artistic sector. Join our panel of practicing artists who will share how and why they chose to use Creative Commons licenses for their works, and discuss the changing landscape of creative practice, intellectual property and participatory culture.

This is the second in a series of salons across the country to raise awareness of the potentials of the Creative Commons and to celebrate the re-launch of the Creative Commons Canada affiliate,

The salon is being held in conjunction with the 9th International Open Education conference.

Panelists will include

  • Ian McKenzie, documentary filmmaker (http://www.ianmack.com/)
  • David Ng of the Phylo Game Project (http://phylogame.org/)
