 You may be infringing copyright without even knowing it. Lawbot can help. Lawbot and the Case of the Missing Copyright Infringers is a text adventure game created to teach the basics of Canadian copyright law. It drops you into a futuristic world where copyright enforcement has gone mad. On your quest to rescue your partner and set things right, you'll learn about things like fair dealing, infringement and alternatives to traditional copyright. Why would you want to learn about all that? Because you're probably infringing already and it's nice to know exactly what it is you're doing that bothers so many industries so much. You may be infringing copyright without even knowing it.

 "Oppera Internettikka - Protection et Sécurité" explores the poetics of a contemporary sound form: opera as a sound event for the audience in the form of a live internet audio broadcast. In that way it combines the notion of the world wide web communication protocols and classical artspace: an opera house. Opera is a very strictly coded form of art with a lot of passion, and internet is a lonely place of solitude and intimate communication which is becoming more and more fragile, dangerous and suspicious. "Oppera Internettikka - Protection et Sécurité" explores the poetics of a contemporary sound form: opera as a sound event for the audience in the form of a live internet audio broadcast.

 Het Vlaams Theater Instituut bracht de decretale geschiedenis in kaart en visualiseerde deze in een affiche. Welke organisaties kregen in deze periode structurele subsidies? Hoe groot was hun hap uit de taart? Het affiche 'Hoeveel olifanten lust een slang' vertelt ons veel over de ontwikkeling van de structureel gesubsidieerde organisaties en over de veranderende houding van de overheid, over de globale bewegingen/diversifiëring van het culturele landschap. Het Vlaams Theater Instituut bracht de decretale geschiedenis in kaart en visualiseerde deze in een affiche.

-In the 1920s, philosopher, sociologist, and economist Otto Neurath and his associates developed unorthodox working methods in order to produce 'pictures out of data'. In the sotype method, a central role was given to 'the transformer'. Marie Neurath explains: "It is the responsibility of the 'transformer' to understand the data, to get all necessary information from the expert, to decide what is worth transmitting to the public, how to make it understandable, how to link it with general knowledge or with information already given in other charts. In this sense, the transformer is the 'trustee of the public'"

 The poster designed by Jan van Toorn for the Van Abbemuseum (1971), is a museum exhibition promotion but it is also a bold critique. It manages to disclose the banalities of both the art market and of accepted visual communication processes. The work represents Van Toorn’s career-long concern with reclaiming the media as a channel of communication, from its modern role of mere distribution, or worse, of obfuscation and deception. The poster designed by Jan van Toorn for the Van Abbemuseum (1971), is a museum exhibition promotion but it is also a bold critique.
