"Leading lawyers, journalists, and technologists, including Professor Lawrence Lessig, champion of the Creative Commons initiative, will debate the future of ideas and how best to promote creative work in a digital world, at a panel discussion as part of this year's Edinburgh International Science Festival.
The talk "Cyberlaw: who controls access to ideas on the net?" chaired by Lilian Edwards of the AHRC Research Centre for Studies in Intellectual Property and Technology Law ("the AHRC Centre") , will be held on the 2nd April 2005. The lecture is open to the public and tickets for the event can be purchased from http://www.sciencefestival.co.uk/
The panel will discuss whether the unprecedented opportunities the Internet offers for the sharing of creative works, globally and at next to no cost, are being impeded by outmoded laws and business models."
