Dear KineJapanners,

 

Given the interest on copyright we've followed for a years now--thanks in no
small part to Aaron's postings on the legal developments in Japan, I've
taken the liberty of sending this information on a conference this month in
Manila, albeit one not about Japanese film.  

 

Yours sincerely,

Jonathan

ASIAN EDITION 

 

 

A Conference on Media Piracy and Intellectual Property in South East Asia 

Sponsored by the Goethe Institute, Manila, and the UP Film Institute

 

Date: November 24, 2006, 9:00 am ­ 5:00 pm, UP Film Institute, University of
the Philippines, Diliman, Metro Manila, CMC Auditorium

 

Many Filipinos still remember the "Asian Edition" - a scheme during the
Marcos years, when American textbooks were reprinted locally and without
paying royalties to the original publishers. Now, “Asian Edition” serves as
title for a conference that will look at the phenomenon of media piracy in
South East Asia today. Music, movie and software piracy is one of the most
prominent media issues of the digital millennium. In the Philippines it has
started a whole underground economy and currently seems to change the way
movies and other media products are distributed and consumed products here
and in other South East Asian countries. 

 

The goal of the workshop is to contribute to an informed discussion of media
piracy and issues of Intellectual Property in the age of digital
reproduction. Instead of portraying piracy exclusively as a crime against
artists and distributors, the proposed workshop will look at piracy as a
social, cultural and economic phenomenon. And it will discuss new concepts
of addressing ownership of Intellectual Property, such as Creative Commons
and Open Source. 

 

Dr. Tilman Baumgärtel, Visiting Professor at the University of the
Philippines, organizes the conference. 

 

 

 

Confirmed participants include: 

Raymond Red, film director, Manila

Cornelia Sollfrank, artist, Hamburg 

Raul Pertierra, sociologist, Manila 

Rolando Tolentino, National University Singapore 

Volker Grassmuck, writer, Berlin 

Khavn de la Cruz, film director, Manila

The conference is free and open to the public.
