Projects

Artmob is a multisectoral initiative designed to build large, accessible online archives of publically licensed Canadian art, and to foreground the issues that this process raises for Canadian copyright and intellectual property laws.

Part of what makes Artmob unique is that a Canadian legal and cultural perspective has guided the direction of Artmob from its conception. We take into account the specific concerns of Canadian users and rights holders working with digital media objects. While there are certainly other Canadian open source development projects, none address the specificities of the Canadian legal and cultural environment in the same way. We are working with Canadian arts groups at a high level of technical sophistication; Artmob research is unique in its mandate to make resources and opportunities available to Canadian arts and cultural groups that are normally outside of their reach.

Artmob’s approach to questions of arts policy is also singular. Canadian law reform is accelerating rapidly without any public input to inform the direction of policy development. Our digital infrastructure will facilitate the collection of both qualitative and quantitative data that will assist Canadian and International scholars and policymakers in addressing the technological, pedagogical, social, cultural and legal questions that publishing arts material in a publicly licensed open-source environment poses.
