At the same time, they have challenged the economical power positions of large corporations. The web gives it's users access to large-scale distribution channels and enables them to freely share information regardless of commercial interests. While for online artists thus the conventional functions of dealers and distributors in certain ways become obsolete, still no economy is established, which would reward their highly relevant cultural achievements. Copyleft wants to provide the framework for a cultural production online, which explores the new possibilities of functioning outside of the traditional parameters of the copyright system, the art market and the music industry. Many artist choosing the internet as their artistic tool are not interested in protecting their results with Copyrights. The possibilities which the web provides for them is the copying, forwarding, or even as with the Linux software continue developing and changing it with other people. The copyleft panel wants to discuss forms of cultural economies, which are appropriate to the needs of the artists and cultural producers in new media. Is there a cultural economy beyond the elitist exclusivity of the visual art market and the mainstream dictated music industry? In the copyleft space visitors are invited to music and video performances, which will be copylefted and freely accessible online. The digitalized elements of the performances will be re-used by the following performers and worked into new copyleft pieces the next night. Late at night the Basel electronic music lable Sofa will spin some chill sounds. On Sunday copyleft and [plug in] will offer a copyleft-future-brunch with an open discussion on scenarios for the future, plans, hopes, requests, etc. With mobile phones the visitors can send SMS, which will be rendered as sound files and make an impact on the development of the copyleft works. The events will be streamed on radio several radio stations. For current information check: http://www.copyleft.cc events or http://www.weallplugin.org news.

Dietmar Bruckmayr, Linz As a front man of the groups Fuckhead and Wipe Out (www.fuckhead.at), as performance and video artist, event and festival organizer, actor and curator, but also as a academic with Ph.D. in commerce Bruckmayr knows both sides of the coin of critical cultural production including the open source context: he harshly criticizes the prevailing capitalist mechanisms while acknowledging, that he himself is a perfect product of this capitalist development, and even fosters it by displaying flexibility and doing without social and occupational security."
