buy a copy of Aleph Null that contains Checking In, all
bets are off.</p>

<div>Hi Jim,<br>
<br>
</div>
I'm not a legal expert so don't consider this
legal advice. At one point I was asking a similar
question regarding what my students are <b>allowed</b>
to do in terms of using digital assets in their
work. The UBCO library gave us some useful
resources that I will share with you here. I'll
skip the content of public domain images and
obtain permissions and jump straight to piece on
fair dealing and the remix exceptions.<br>
<br>
<br>
<br>
<b>Fair dealing exception</b><br>
Fair dealing is a user right contained in the
Copyright Act that allows you to copy from a
copyrighted work, without the copyright owner's
permission, if:<br>
1. The copy is for the purposes of<br>
<ul>
<li>Research</li>
<li>Private Study</li>
<li>Education</li>
<li>Criticism or Review</li>
<li>Parody or Satire</li>
<li>News reporting</li>
</ul>
2. The use is “fair”…<br>
Dealing can be considered fair based on:<br>

<br>
<b>Non-Commercial User-Generated Content Exception</b><br>
<br>
<ul>
<li>AKA the “Mash-Up Exception”</li>
<li>Allows individuals to use a published work
to create and communicate a new work, as long
as:</li>
<li>the purpose is strictly non-commercial;</li>
<li>you use a legal copy of the original work;</li>
<li>you identify the author and source of the
original work; and</li>
<li>the new work does not adversely impact the
copyright owner of the original.</li>
</ul>

I hope some of this is useful for your cause.<br>

unsure of the legality of a piece that I've created
with the poet Adeena Karasick. I wonder if those in
the know on legal use of images might tell me what
you think.<br>
<br>
The piece is at <a
href="http://vispo.com/aleph3/an.html?d=Adeena%20Karasick%201"
rel="noreferrer noreferrer" target="_blank"
moz-do-not-send="true">http://vispo.com/aleph3/an.html?d=Adeena%20Karasick%201</a><br>
<br>
Best experienced on a desktop/laptop machine, though
it runs OK on mobile devices. Click the aleph at top
left to toggle display of the controls.<br>
<br>
The text is Adeena's. She owns it for sure. No
problem there. It's the text of her new book
Checking In coming out soon from Talonbooks in
Vancouver. And the programming is mine. The program
the piece is in is one I wrote called Aleph Null
3.0.<br>
<br>
The issue is the images in the background and the
images used to fill the text.<br>
<br>
Adeena selected 208 images from the net and from her
own images for me to use in this piece. She didn't
get them by license in google image search. She just
picked the most relevant images for the text of the
project.<br>
<br>
She and a friend of hers think this is legal use of
these images. I'm not so sure. What do you think?<br>
<br>
I really like the piece itself. And Adeena's text is
terrific. But I am quite unsure about the legalities
of image use. And it isn't the 90's anymore. Things
are changing. Google recently changed their image
search so that you have to visit the site on which
the image is located before you can save it. And of
course there's the whole Facebook data issue. People
are re-examining ownership of digitized/digital
stuff.<br>
