Hacking Visual Culture

Intersections of art, creative practice, copyright, storytelling and technology

Hosted by the Faculty of Law and Creative Practice Research Group (Faculty of Arts & Social Sciences) at the University of Technology Sydney (UTS).

This 2.5 day conference explores the complex and evolving relationship between creativity, copyright law, artistic practices, storytelling and technological innovation in the data-driven, digital age. As the boundaries between the physical and virtual realms blur, traditional notions of ownership, authorship, and dissemination are challenged, prompting urgent questions about the future of creative and cultural expressions and their relationship with copyright law. These questions will be addressed through a selection of papers, presentations, instillations and artistic interventions. For further information and full programme please see our website.
