etcc is 
a 
series 
of
 exhibitions 
that
 are 
remixed
 and
 remixable
 –
legally.
 
 In
 2011
 etcc
 will
 host
 three
 consecutive
 exhibitions
 in
 Sydney,
 Brisbane
 and
 Melbourne
 featuring
 a
 body
 of
 new
 works
 that
 explore
 the
 realities
 of
 copyright
 in
 the
 visual
 arts.
 By 
hanging 
the
 polarized
 copyright
 debate 
on
 the
 gallery 
wall
 the
 works
 challenge
 piracy,
 appropriation,
 inspiration,
 legal
 licensing
 and 
the
 freedom
 to 
create.

Beastman, Numskull, Phibs, Ben Frost, MiniGraff, Benjamin Reeve, Rena Littleson, Maricor Maricar, and many more to be announced.

Each
 artist
 will
 take
 Creative
 Commons
 licensed
 images,
 create
 a
 new
 work 
based 
on 
those 
images,
 and 
in 
turn
 license
 their 
image 
for 
others 
to 
remix
–
legally.
 Through 
this
 process,
 the
 project
 utilizes
 emerging
 copyright
 practices
 to
 demonstrate
 new
 models
 of
 distribution,
 collaboration
 and
 commerce.
 Appropriation.
 Rip
 offs.
 Sharing.
 Remix.
 Collaboration.
 Piracy. 
Due 
credit.
 The
 environment 
that
 artists
 operate
 in
 now
 is
 both
 liberating
 and
 litigious.
 The
 copyright
 debate
 is
 drab
 and
 polarised,
 and
 of
 little
 relevance
 to
 many
 artists’
 creative
 practice.
  However,
 this
 does
 not
 mean
 that
 it
 does
 not
 exist,
 for
 better
 or
 for
 worse,
 in
 the
 creative
 world.
 
 The
 creative
 community
 is
 changing.
 Technology
 is
 changing.
 The
 ways
 artists
 can
 control
 their
 respective
 rights
 are 
changing 
too.
  A
 culture 
is 
emerging
 to
 allow 
artists 
to 
shift, 
integrate
 and
 remix
 each
others’
 work;
 resulting
 in 
the 
formation 
of
 something 
fresh 
and 
unrestrained 
from
 the
 chains 
of 
traditional 
legal
 regulations.
  Many
 musicians,
 filmmakers
 and
 digital
 artists
 have
 embraced
 this
 concept
 however
 remix
 is
 far
 from
 an
 established
 visual
 arts
 practice.
 
  
−
etcc
 invites
 artists
 to
 look
 at
 ways
 to
 legally
 reuse
 work
 and
 encourages
 the
 creative
 community
 to
 better
 understand 
both 
their 
inherent 
rights
 and 
potential 
alternatives 
to
 the
 blanket 
of
 “all 
rights 
reserved”
copyright
 law.
  The
 audience
 is
 also
 asked
 to
 appreciate
 the
 artistic
 process
 where
 one
 creation
 is
 transformed
 into
 something
 entirely
 new
 whether
 obviously
 or
 conceptually;
 all
 playing
 with
 the
 notion
 that
 most
 works
 are
 derivative
 in 
nature.
 
 The etcc exhibition
 will
 showcase
 a
 broad 
range 
of
 works
 from
 a 
varied
 selection
 of 
artists
 including
 Beastman,
 Numskull,
 Phibs, 
Ben
Frost,
 MiniGraff,
 Benjamin
Reeve,
 Rena 
Littleson,
 Maricor 
Maricar,
 and
 many 
more
 to 
be
 announced.
