[Seth-Trips] YLEM Forum, Exploratorium, May 15

[Seth David Schoen]

The actual topic for my talk isn't quite worked out, but I'll be
speaking at the YLEM: Artists Using Science and Technology forum
at the Exploratorium on May 15.


YLEM Forum:
Artists, Freedom and Privacy
Wednesday, May 15, 7:30 PM
McBean Theater, The Exploratorium
3601 Lyon St. , San Francisco, CA 94123

Seth David Schoen, staff technologist at the Electronic Frontier
Foundation
will speak about issues and legislation affecting artists, including
intellectual property and the Hollings bill. Will future machines
prevent
duplication of images as well as music and film? What about fair use
and
copying ones' own work?
Another concern is privacy vs. marketing and security
information-gathering.
Is a certain amount of anonymity necessary for free thought?
Free, open to the public, wheelchair accessible.

Future Forum dates: July 17, September 18, November 20.
