Artists and Copyright in Cyberspace Arts Law Week Seminars - The Law in Cyberspace Author: Andrew Garton Date: 28 August 1996, Arts Victoria, South Melbourne This paper is a brief introduction to artists activities on the Internet, in particular the Web, and their general view to copyright within the context of net connected media. It includes a profile of web sites exploring the possibilities Cyberspace holds for artists including the copyright approaches adopted by them. This paper, it should be noted, is largely a product of the sampling culture that prevails within Cyberspace. Cyberspace is not a term I would generally use, but for the sake of this paper I shall refer to Cyberspace as that space created by inter-connected computers, telephony and people in which exploration, collaboration and social experimentation takes place and this thing that is eating up my life.
