Creative Commons is a new way for authors, artists, musicians, film 
makers, programmers and others to make their creative works available to 
the world. Rather than the usual "(c) All Rights Reserved" approach that 
limits the use that can be made of works, Creative Commons provides a 
"(cc) Some Rights Reserved" licence. Creative individuals can use the 
Creative Commons website to automatically generate licences that fit 
their exact needs. You can find out more at 
http://creativecommons.org/learn/artistscorners/

The founder of the Creative Commons project, Stanford University law 
professor Lawrence Lessig, will be at UCL on 4 October to launch the UK 
version of the Creative Commons licences. Come and hear from him about 
the problems of the existing copyright system and the future of 
creativity in the Internet age.

Entry is free and open to the public. Please RSVP to 
I.Brown-kecf2yCh/[email protected] with "Creative Commons UK" as the subject.
