Kopimism is a philosophy that considers copying and sharing of information to be intrinsically valuable, regardless of content. It views copying as a natural state of the universe and opposes monopolization of knowledge through copyright. However, others argue Kopimism is a sophistry designed to circumvent piracy laws and its claims of being a religion are a scam. While Kopimism promotes concepts like cooperation and creativity, its dogma and practices are questionable and copying without limits could enable harmful behaviors. Overall, Kopimism remains a controversial philosophy around information sharing and intellectual property.

KOPIMIST DOGMA 101
•

There is an “intrinsic value of information . . . irrespective of its content.”

•

Kopimism is the “opposite of copyright religion.”

•

“No Kopimist is wholly self suﬃcient, each being just one component of an
interconnected and interdependent world”

•

“Kopimi is the natural state of the universe”

•

Kopimism is “just trying [to] ﬁght against the monopolization of knowledge.”

•

Copymixing > Copying

“The internet is holy.”

Our words shall, simultaneously, sound as
foolishness upon deaf ears and lovely
caresses to those who see and hear, but
above all: They should bite ﬁrmly into you –
and your mom.

CONCLUSION

“You who will transcribe this book, I
charge you, in the name of our Lord
Jesus Christ … compare what you
have copied against the original
and correct it carefully.

“the Author of any Book … shall
have the sole Right and Liberty
of Printing such Book and
Books for the Term of One and
twenty Years”

“‘Copy and Paste what
thou wilt’ shall be the
whole of the law.”

General Education courses A gymnasium of the mindKnowledge beyond one’s specialtyWriting and thinking across disciplinesWorking in collaboration with othersThinking critically & reasoning logically Developing some computer skills Sensitivity to others’ cultures & problems * Have Fun But Not Too Much! “But perhaps the biggest reason why intellectuals excoriated entertainment was that they understood all too well their own precariousness in a world dominated by it. For whatever the overt content of any particular work, entertainment as a whole promulgated an unmistakable theme, one that took dead aim at the intellectual’s most cherished values. That theme was the triumph of the senses over the mind, of emotion over reason, of chaos over order, of the id over the superego, of Dionysian abandon over Apollonian harmony. Entertainment was Plato’s worst nightmare. It deposed the rational and enthroned the sensational and in so doing deposed the intellectual minority and enthroned the unrefined majority. Therein, for the intellectuals, lay utmost danger and deepest despair. They know that in the end, after all the imprecations had rung down around it, entertainment was less about morality or even aesthetics than about power—the power to replace the old cultural order with a new one, the power to replace the sublime with fun.”—Neal Gabler, Life the Movie: How Entertainment Conquered Reality, Alfred A. Knopf, New York, 1998, page 21.

Consider the Big Picture “Many people fall for mistaken common beliefs regarding their health because medicine today does not look at the human body as a whole. For many years there has been a trend for doctors to specialize, looking at and treating just one part of the body. We can’t see the forest for the trees. Everything in the human body is interconnected. Just because a component found in a food helps one part of the body function well, it does not mean that it is good for the entire body. When picking your food and drink, consider the big picture. You cannot decide whether a food is good or bad simply by looking at one ingredient found in that food.” Hiromi Shinya, MD, The Enzyme Factor: Diet for the Future that wil.

Változás keleti és nyugati vezetői szemmel - Leadership Seminar “Gyorsul a változás - lassul a növekedés: a változás kezelésének képességének szerepe nemhogy nő, hanem állandósul, hiszen a változás is állandó, így az interim menedzsment kompetenciákra is minden menedzsernek állandóan szüksége lesz.” Hogyan fogadja munkatársai pálinkázással egybekötött disznóvágásra szóló meghívását egy svájci vállalat francia vezetője a cég kelet-magyarországi telephelyén? Hogyan reagálja le a kínai kolléga, ha Németországban dolgozó magyar kollégája azzal a hírrel fogadja reggel, hogy Budapesten esett a hó? És mit tegyen egy derék svéd a stockholmi irodában, ha az olasz kereskedelmi vezető a legújabb üzletet mesélve lelkesen ölelgeti? Ezekről az izgalmas, egyben nagyon is aktuális kérdésekről esett szó a Holland-Magyar Kereskedelmi Kamara és a Hammel & Hochreiter International Consulting Kft. közös szervezésében megrendezett vezetői szemináriumon. Már a rendezvény előtt érezni lehetett, ez a téma, a kultúrák találkozása, az interkulturális kommunikáció sokakat érdekelni fog, hiszen, holland, magyar, német, francia szó keveredett a regisztrációs pultnál. A vendéglátók, szakmai támogatók, előadók sokszínűsége - Virágh Rajmund, Kristóf Györgyi, Dr Nagy László, Frido Diepeveen, dr Szvetelszky Zsuzsanna, Diederik Pen, Kincses Anita - mondandójukban a változás állandósága, az egymásrautaltság, és mindenekelőtt a sikeresség feltételei képezték a vezérvonalat. A különféle megközelítések egyben összecsengtek: ma csak az lehet sikeres, aki elfogadja a folyamatos változásokat és képes elsajátítani az alkalmazkodás képességét. Ebben a kommunikáció jelenti a meghatározó elemet, amely az együttműködés, ezáltal a közösségi értékteremtés alapfeltétele, ahogyan azt dr. Szvetelszky Zsuzsanna szociálpszichológus előadásában kiemelte. Diederik Pen, a WizzAir holland operációs igazgatója, akinek főnöke a magyar Váradi József, érdekes példákat mutatott az úgynevezett kelet- és nyugat-európai problémamegoldó rutinokról, szokásokról, és megnyugtatta a hallgatóságot, hogy a két megközelítés megfér egymás mellett, amire legjobb bizonyíték a WizzAir lendületes fejlődése.

This is an evolving powerpoint that goes along with a paper I am writing on the impact of technology. Here is the abstract of the paper. The PPT is not was well organized yet, but it has served as a place to kepe my notes. "Much is in the news today about what is becoming of the next generation. Discussants usually say one of two things. On one side, researchers say that technology will impact a child's development and lead to increases in narcissism. Others feel that there is nothing to be alarmed about and this is a common cry of every newer generation about the older. Using the current research as well as experiences from the classroom and consulting room, the author in this paper uses a psychoanalytic frame to redefine the question and hopefully establish a more practical way about thinking and feeling about technology, narcissism, and the state of things to come. "

Presented at the Internet Research 16 conference in Phoenix, AZ, Oct 24, 2015. Based on: Sinnreich, A. & Aufderheide, P. (2015). Communication scholars and fair use: The case for discipline-wide education and institutional reform. International Journal of Communication, 9; 818-828. Abstract: A survey of 350 communication scholars internationally shows that, although scholars are increasingly aware of fair use and (when aware of it) benefit from the Code of Best Practices in Fair Use for Communication Scholarship, they continue to suffer from confusion and ignorance about how to apply this feature of copyright law that is crucial to their work. Most are not aware of the code, although those who use it report success. The survey results point to the need for discipline-wide education and application of the code’s affordances for institutional reform.

Presentation made by Jessa Lingel and Aram Sinnreich at the Internet Research 15 Conference in Daegu, Korea, 10/23/14. Full draft of the article is available at http://j.mp/incodification. Presentation audio: https://soundcloud.com/original-sinn/incodification_ir15 Abstract: This paper reviews penal history in order to consider forms of resistance to mass surveillance. Because experiences of surveillance are endemic to incarcerated life, identifying tactics of resistance among these populations provides valuable insights for potential forms of counter-conduct in other circumstances of ubiquitous monitoring. We focus on three forms of protest: hunger strikes, alternate communication networks and viral dance videos, which we frame through Foucault’s theory of askesis. We introduce the term incodification as a means of describing conditions of continuous surveillance ingrained into infrastructures of everyday life, even as these conditions give rise to tactics of resistance like those identified in this paper. Our objective in introducing this term, and with our analysis as a whole, is to provoke theoretical and activist projects that account for and subvert infrastructures of incodification.

Presentation audio: https://soundcloud.com/original-sinn/posthuman_rights_cornelltech Abstract: The rise of digital networks is contributing to profound shifts in the way we work, play, organize, and construct our identities. The "modern individual," a convenient fiction of the 19th and 20th centuries, is giving way to a more fluid understanding of the human condition, and inspiring some thinkers to postulate that we're entering a "posthuman" age. Yet our legal, economic, and institutional systems are still tied to the notion of "individual" rights and responsibilities. How can we update these systems to accommodate such changes, and what are the risks if we don't?
