Westminster eForum Keynote Seminar: IPR and DRM
Lewis Media Centre, Millbank Tower, Millbank, Westminster, London SW1P
4RS
Morning, 14th March 2006
Event supported by Arts Council England
I am writing to invite you or a colleague you might like to nominate
to attend the above seminar.
The aim of this, the second seminar the Westminster eForum has
conducted on Intellectual Property, is to provide a platform for
latest thinking on this important set of issues and offer
stakeholders a timely meeting point for different perspectives.
As importantly, we seek to serve policy makers in Parliament and
Government by adding to their understanding of the relationships
between viewpoints and so provide context for decision making.
The overall theme is one of a weighing up of what are the
characteristics of an IPR and DRM landscape - commercially and
politically, and with a view to the international realities - that
will most benefit the UK=C5fs creative economy.
Planned sessions include a discussion of the new relationships which
are emerging between copyright owners and others and - with
established examples of best practice - the implications across a
range of content sectors. Delegates will also discuss latest
approaches to DRM - including practicalities such as interoperability
- and the implications for the global market.
A key output of the seminar will be a comprehensive printed record of
the proceedings - published as a high-quality bound briefing document
for Ministers and officials at DCMS, DTI, and other departments
affected by the issues, Parliamentarians with a special interest in
these areas, other agencies and the European Commission. It will also
be made available more widely. All delegates will receive free PDF
copies and are invited to contribute to the content.
We are delighted that Derek Wyatt MP, Chair of the All-Party
Parliamentary Internet Group, has agreed to give a forward looking
address on the implications from his Group's enquiry into DRM, which
will have just been published. Lynne Brindley will also deliver a
keynote speech, on new initiatives and insights into the way forward
for public policy from the unique perspective of the British Library,
of which she is Chief Executive.
In keeping with all Westminster eForum meetings, the agenda is
structured to be impartial and cross party. Other confirmed speakers
include: Mark Bide, Senior Consultant, Rightscom; Richard Charkin,
Chief Executive, Macmillan, and Chair, Publishers Association; Nic
Garnett, The MCPS-PRS Alliance; Andy Hobsbawm, European Chairman and
co-founder, Agency.com; Jill Johnstone, Head of Policy, Research and
Strategy, National Consumer Council; Laurie Kaye, Laurence Kaye
Solicitors; and Bill Thompson, journalist and technology critic.
=46urther senior participants are being approached - representing a
range of interests and perspectives - and we are awaiting
confirmation of availability.
We are also delighted that Baroness Buscombe has agreed to chair part
of the event.
This seminar is supported by Arts Council England.
As well as government officials, who have expressed strong interest
in this seminar, we expect attendees to be a senior and informed
group numbering more than 100, including Members of both Houses of
Parliament, senior representatives from industry, interest groups,
academia and the national media.
I have attached a copy of the draft agenda below my signature so you
can get a feel for the day.

Que se passe-t'il ?
Si j'avais le pouvoir
Je ferais revenir le Clemenceau
Pour en faire une piste de danse
Et organiser une rave partie
Pour Paik
Que se passe-t'il ?
Si j'avais le courage, j'crirais
Ils m'emmerdent tous ces artistes
Pascale Lecoq
Avec ses drapeaux
Bernard Venet
qu'on voie trop partout
Pinoncelli
Avec son ego dmesur
Ben qui
n'a plus rien dire
Que se passe-t'il ?
Arman est mort, Hains est mort
Hier Paik est mort
qui sera le prochain mourir ?
Et dire qu'ils sont tous morts sans savoir
Que ce serait moi le plus important
des pas importants ?
Que se passe-t'il ?
Ds que l'artiste meurt
Comme de l'herbe sauvage
les histoires poussent tout autour de lui
Les petites rencontres
se transforment en grandes aventures
les peine connus en grandes amitis
c'est partout des il m'a dit
Et je lui ai dit
Que se passe-t'il ?
Ce matin pour moi
Tout est sans importance
L'art est sans importance
Les vtements, la mode, sans importance
Les gadgets sans importance
Je me demande d'ailleurs
ce qui a de l'importance ?
ma femme couche avec un autre trois mtres de moi
Sans importance
La guerre en Irak avec ses milliers de morts
Sans importance
Que se passe-t'il ?

Des entreprises de croque mort

La mort fond de commerce
Que se passe-t'il ?
C'est vrai, je suis vraiment triste
qui vais-je tlphoner pour me plaindre de l'art
Foutez-moi la paix
Vos photos de famille ne m'intressent pas
Votre conversation qui tourne en rond ne m'intresse pas
Foutez-moi la paix
Laissez- moi regarder les jeunes femmes sans me sentir coupable
Que se passe-t'il ?
J'ai horreur des enterrements d'artistes
Des voyages remplis de temps perdu
Regarder le soleil tourner autour de l'avion
Et moi autour de moi
L'art des morts me fatigue
La situation n'est plus sous contrle nulle part
je veux rester la maison
Que se passe-t'il ?
Nol, j'avais envie de faire des tours de magie
mes petits enfants
Mais je ne les ai pas faits
la situation n'est plus sous mon contrle
Que se passe-t'il ?
mon avis
Les USA n'attaqueront pas l'Iran parce que
L'Iran tient les USA par la barbichette
Si vous m'embtez trop
Je lche les Chiites en Irak
Rappelez vous que Sistani c'est mon homme
Si vous m'embtez
Je lche les Pachtouns en Afghanistan
Contre vous
Rappelez vous qu'ils parlent ma langue
Si vous m'embtez
Je ne vous vends plus de ptrole
Que se passe-t'il ?
Cela m'embterait de devenir
Un artiste clbre
Je n'aurais pas le temps de rpondre au tlphone
J'en ne dormirais pas la nuit
je passerais mon temps me cacher des emmerdeurs
Et puis les artistes clbres meurent
Que se passe-t'il ?
