Right the Right presents a series of workshops, lectures and presentations around copyright law in the music industry.

Taking place 21 – 24 November, Right the Right will welcome the likes of Chicks on Speed, Holly Herndon and Mat Dryhurst, and Algorave aficionados Alexandra Cárdenas and Antonio Roberts for a series of daily talks, workshops, lecture-performances and concerts exploring the future of copyright in the music industry. Topics raised throughout the conference include, plunderphonics, algorave and decolonizing global copyright relations.

A curatorial statement from Right the Right reads: “How could the existing system be changed and improved? What parts of it should be replaced with other regulations and what proposals exist for this? How can protection and use be meaningfully reconciled – or will it require completely different approaches than copyright? How should obsolete notions of authorship, originality and property be realistically updated? What do fair conditions for the arts actually look like from a global perspective?”
