Just a heads up, I'm taking part in a panel discussion for the Illegal Art Show at PNCA on Thursday October 19th. The topics will range from; copyright and art, symbolic economies, intellectual property vs. freedom of expression, fair use laws, and much more. It's a good show that I reviewed in part here.

The panel features; Carrie Mclaren (moderator, main curator for the Illegal Art Show and founder of Stay Free Magazine), John Calvelli (PNCA Faculty, Design Dept.), Kohel M Haver (Partner in Swider Medeiros Haver LLP, Portland Oregon, specializing in all types of arts, copyright, publishing, arts and entertainment law), Jeff Jahn (co-founder of PORT, artist and director/curator for Organism), Lydia Loren (Dean and Professor of Law Lewis and Clark College), Jim Riswold (artist and longtime creative director for Portland ad agency Wieden & Kennedy).

Should be fun... I plan to work counterfeiting and Las Vegas' appropriation of other cities skylines for the purpose of tourism into the mix as well.
