Artist Julie Sando is one of three panellists in an Aug. 2 webinar on copyrights in arts and music.
An online workshop Friday, Aug. 2, will explore the confluence of inspiration, transformation, and copyrights in arts and music.
Hosted by CJAM campus community radio station, “Copyrights for Indie Artists” will feature artists Datsunn and Julie Sando and legal counsel Fraser Turnbull to share their wealth of experience in navigating the world of art, raise awareness of the limits of copying, and offer informational resources available to independent artists.
Datsunn is a beat-maker, producer, and multi-disciplinary artist who runs School of Live Beats, an educational platform that teaches techniques and workflows for creating music using samples.
Sando is a lens-based visual artist. Working with both still and moving images, she uses collage, photography, and re-photographic processes. She is an adjunct associate professor in the School of Creative Arts, where she has taught studio art and visual culture courses for many years.
Turnbull is legal counsel and privacy officer at SOCAN — the Society of Composers, Authors and Music Publishers of Canada. His work focuses on copyright policy and reform, corporate governance, government advocacy, privacy law, and copyright litigation.
The discussion will be moderated by CJAM live music and events co-ordinator, English student Heloisa Moraes. It begins at 1 p.m. and is free to join, thanks to the CJAM Innovation Fund created by donor and alumnus Karl Mamer (BA 1999).
