*Open Congress

Creativity and the public domain
*
 
Friday 7th Saturday 8th October 2005, 11am - 5pm.

Tate Britain, Millbank London SW1P 4RG

Inspired by Free Software, which challenges conventional practices of
authorship, ownership and distribution, this innovative congress explores
the implications of those developments for art, visual culture and cultural
production in general.

Taking place across two days, the Congress will be structured through three
themes of Governance, Creativity and Knowledge; and an array of
international and UK participants - artists, theorists, academics and
activists - will shape Open Congress through presentations, discussion,
workshops and events.

The Congress includes Cory Doctorow - from the EFF, Lawrence Liang -
Alternative Law Foundation, Mackenzie Wark - A Hacker Manifesto, Johanna
Gibson, Libre Society, Trebor Scholz - The Institute of Distributed
Creativity, Tiziana Terranova, Talkaoke, and Wireless London among many
others.

In collaboration with Chelsea College of Art and Design, Node.l, Wireless
London, Mute, and Tate Digital Programmes.
