Framed! How Law Constructs and Constrains Culture | Music, Bound by Law?

From classical and folk, to jazz and blues, to rock and roll, hip hop and mash-ups, music has a long tradition of borrowing, recombining, and building upon existing musical elements. How has this history of borrowing been seen by the law? What lines do artists themselves see between borrowing and theft? This panel will examine the treatment of creative practices across musical genres, and consider the musical forms that would be enabled by different ways of doing business within the music industry.
