Before Dr. Lawrence Lessig, a Professor of Law at Stanford Law School, introduced the concept so-called “some rights reserved”, we used to utilize and adhere to the conventional intellectual property right - all rights reserved policy. After proposing the idea of Creative Commons, a wave of new digital content licensing sweep all over the world. Its unique attributes of free and easy-to-use deed for content creators and users, knowledge sharing and creativity flourishing, and a balance between the bipolar vision of the intellectual property right - total control and anarchy, all contribute to the accessibility and the remix of digital content.

With the efforts of Creative Commons and the Institute of Information Science, Academia Sinica, Taiwan jurisdiction-specific licenses have been integrated into the Creative Commons licensing process. Also, in quest of the sustainability of commons-based peer productions and sustainable online business models that incorporate Creative Commons licenses, the conference will focus on the theme of exploring business model and sharing economy in CC, and probing scientific commons in Taiwan via the presentation from Magnatune, Jamendo, Skysoft Inc. and the team of “The Academic Applications and the Dissemination of the Culture Heritage Project”.

It is anticipated that through the conference, lawyers, scholars, creators, Internet content providers and content users interested in Creative Commons can join a force to start a culture movement that fit in Taiwan’s society.
