Dear Colleagues:
I'm interested in interviewing people working in youth media 
about your thoughts about intellectual property, copyright 
and fair use. Please email me if you would like to be 
interviewed about this topic.

As part of a project supported by the MacArthur Foundation, 
my colleagues Pat Aufderheide, Peter Jaszi and I are trying 
to learn more about how copyright and fair use are perceived 
among educators, artists and activists who work with young 
people on media production and media analysis activities. 

We want to hear from people who are confused about these 
topics, people who have strong opinions, and even from those 
of you who just don't care about this issue. Questions about 
the rights of owners and users of intellectual property are 
emerging as a result of the rise of user-generated content 
on the Internet and other digital technologies. We'd like to 
benefit from your thinking about these issues, especially as 
they relate to your work with youth media, education and 
community development.

If you would like to participate in our research, we will 
arrange for a 30 - 40 minute phone call where you can share 
your questions, thoughts and ideas. Thanks for your help!

Renee
