The current copyright framework poses challenges for the creation and consumption of
visual art and related scholarship, as the analog media of the past have been supplanted
by a digital world. In the age of social distancing and remoteness, how will the copyright
framework be challenged, both domestically and globally, with the new reliance on the
digital?
Copyright will continue guiding the creation, maintenance, distribution, and consumption
of visual art and scholarship both domestically and globally, but what are the
copyright-related best practices to help ensure a smoother transition to meet increasing
demand for digital access?
This panel seeks to address how the age of remoteness could (re)define the copyright best
practices and informational resources for those navigating a world functioning online and
digitally at an unprecedented magnitude. How does the age of remoteness alter our concept
of fair use and open access in the arenas of performance, publishing, and online
education, for example? We welcome papers across geographic contexts and from different
perspectives, including that of artists, archivists, designers, technologists, lawyers,
librarians, scholars, publishers, and museum professionals.
