Dear colleagues,<br>
<br>
Just a reminder that we have a special treat tomorrow:<br>
Prof. James Boyle will be coming to give a talk. The event<br>
is co-sponsored by the CS Department, the School of Law, and<br>
the Center for Science & Innovation Studies.<br>
<br>
Prof. Boyle is the Williams Reynolds Professor of Law at Duke.<br>
He is also a board member of Creative Commons and a columnist<br>
for the "Financial Times". His essay "The Second Enclosure<br>
Movement and the Construction of the Public Domain" is a<br>
classic, and his latest book, "The Public Domain: Enclosing<br>
the Commons of the Mind" (2008) is a wonderful (and scary) read.<br>
I suspect Prof. Boyle will give an interesting and engaging talk.<br>
<br>
Note the atypical location (1002 Giedt, the building<br>
immediately north of Kemper) (we feared we wouldn't all fit<br>
in Kemper this tims). Hope to see you all there!<br>
<br>

<br>
INTELLECTUAL PROPERTY AND THE FUTURE OF TECHNOLOGY<br>
Learning from the Software Wars<br>
<br>
James Boyle<br>
Duke Law School<br>
<br>
Thursday - Feb 10, 2011 - 3:10 pm<br>
1002 Giedt Hall<br>
Reception and refreshments to follow<br>
afterwards in the Kemper Hall main lobby<br>
------------------------------------------------------------------<br>
<br>
Over the last 40 years, software was forced -- reluctantly and with some<br>
conceptual violence -- into the conceptual boxes provided by intellectual<br>
property law. What can we learn from the experience? In this lecture,<br>
James Boyle will argue that the "software wars" actually present some<br>
deep lessons for the future of technology and the ways that law should,<br>
and should not, regulate that future.<br>
