I would like to be able to access GDDM from either VMLISP or Waterloo

Subject: LEONARDO Speakers Bureau


ISAST is starting a small pilot program for a LEONARDO
Speakers Bureau.  
ISAST will pay a small Honorarium ($100) to any LEONARDO
author in Volume 20(1987) who speaks to a group on the
invitation of an ISAST associate member. ISAST will also
pay a small Honorarium($50) to the sponsoring group.

We hope to encourage more discussion of art/technology
topics and issues through this seed cash.

To apply for the Honorarium just send a copy of your letter
inviting the LEONARDO to speak, an a copy of the authors
letter accepting the invitation.

For more info or feedback contact rogerm@sag4.ssl.berkeley.edu

Subject: colorising

I will drop a letter to Senator Leahy - the whole copyright
legislation is in need of updating to reflect contemporary
technology
Note that a similar issue comes up in the restoration of
old paintings (eg the current brouhaha over the Last Supper).
Its almost worst in this case because there is no real
way to know what the original work by the artist looked
like. I bet this issue will only get addressed by artists
including clauses in contracts addressing modification
of a piece at a later time ie a film director would
retain right to approve later modifications - Note however
that most studios insist on "final cut" after the director
has finished, so that the director has already lost control
over the artwork.

I will be on the road most of the rest of May and June, so
will only be a sporadic correspondent. When I get back I
will try to get one of our staff folks to pick up responsibility
for working with FINE-ART Forum. I am keen to see it bloom
