Call-out for artists to submit on anti-sharing trade agreement
Copied from Bronwyn's email to the cc-nz email list:
"To add to Mark's advice, this is also something that should be of concern to any and all artists who use found/borrowed material in their work (ie for research, remix, and/or response) and debatably anyone who browses the web!
As creators own the copyright of their work as "rights-holders" (or as it may be, corporations who have bought those rights...), ACTA is being proposed in the name of protecting their IP. As an artist, I'm not quite convinced that the protection of my work's copyright warrants this kind of activity.
See http://www.bronwyn.co.nz for a bit more..."
