Abstract

Here’s the core idea that I want to suggest: that one of the concerns that we have with conceptual art going forward, and with the question of copyrightability, is that copyright law, for a really long time now, has had a nascent and unstated theory of authorship that connects to the way in which we conceptualize the connection between inputs and outputs, agency in the real world, and the nature of the human connection to the work—and that these works of conceptual art are calling that theory into question. And part of the concern is that this test and this conception, being unstated—when we take a step back to try and understand how we might update it or liberate it from these conceptions, we have a hard time wrestling with it, to nail it down. And so, what I want to leave you with is the question of whether it’s time to update our traditional conception of authorship.
我们需要一个新的作者概念吗
以下是我想提出的核心观点:的担心,我们和概念艺术,和copyrightability的问题,是著作权法,很长时间了,有新生的和未阐明的理论的作者连接到我们概念化的方式输入和输出之间的连接,机构在现实世界中,和人类的本质。另外,这些连接的概念艺术作品称这一理论质疑。我们担心的一部分是这个测试和这个概念,没有陈述,当我们退后一步,试图理解我们如何更新它或将它从这些概念中解放出来时,我们很难与它搏斗,确定它。所以,我想留给你们的问题是,是不是时候更新我们对作者身份的传统观念了。
