[Announcing] SFMOMA: The Open-Source Paradigm, Thursday, November 18, 2004
Hey all, I wanted to alert you to a panel I'm on next week in San Francisco. Needless to say it is going to be major PR in the art world for Inkscape and Open Clip Art Library. If anyone is in the area, it would be a great event to attend. I'm also excited because the number 2 person at creativecommons (under lessig) is on the panel.
Please forward the following PR below:

On Thursday, November 18, 2004, SFMOMA (www.sfmoma.org) presents:
The Open-Source Paradigm ========================
A Panel Discussion & Reception Moderated by Linda Jacobson, featuring new media professor Greg Niemeyer (http://art.berkeley.edu/niemeyer/) from UC Berkeley, artist-developer Jon Phillips (www.rejon.org), and Creative Commons (www.creativecommons.org) assistant director Neeru Paharia.
7:00 p.m. in the Phyllis Wattis Theater
Visual artists and sound artists who create with digital tools have started to embrace the community-based, open-source software approach that's revolutionized the computer industry. As a reaction to the restrictions of intellectual property rights, the Open Source Initiative provides free computer software via the Web and allows anyone to contribute software as long as the underlying source codes are visible and shared. Explorations of the creative applications of open-source promise to expand its use beyond software development. This panel discusses the conceptual basis for the open-source movement in the arts, its history, and legal issues and presents artistic projects incorporating open-source technology. A reception in The Schwab Room follows the program.
$12 general; $8 SFMOMA members, students with ID, and seniors. Tickets are available at SFMOMA (with no surcharge) or online. This event is presented in collaboration with SMAC (San Francisco Media Arts Council).
Please visit www.sfmoma.org for press coverage of previous SMAC/SFMOMA event on videogames' impact on artists featuring pioneers Will Wright and Nolan Bushnell
Hi Jon,
I've added a news item about this to http://www.inkscape.org/. Hope you'll get a good attendance - wish I could be there!
Good luck Jon, let us know how it goes.
