Creative Commons Hungary Launch and Party
Creative Commons Hungary will be launched after the
RE:activism conference.
At the event Lawrence Lessig, one of the founding fathers of Creative
Commons, Dr Gábor Faludi, senior legal counsel of the Collecting
Society of Hungarian Musicians, Istv án Rév, director of the OSA
Archivum and György Csepeli, political state secretary of the Ministry
of Informatics and Communications, will discuss their vision on how
technology, copyright legislation and cultural access and preservation
interact in a linguistically and culturally secluded environment such
as in Hungary. Creative Commons Launch party: DJ Shuriken (Vályi
Gábor) plays a selection from his 60’s 70’s Hungarian dance singles and
talks about how harsh copyright restrictions in a small market result
in inaccessibility, thus inevitable oblivion of works buried in dusty
vaults of record companies.
