This episode kicks off our season working with the Engelberg Center on Innovation Law & Policy. We talk about copyright and its limits; licenses and ethical open source; and the infamous monkey selfie legal case.

This episode features conversations with Michael Weinberg, the Executive Director of the Engelberg Center on Innovation Law and Policy at NYU School of Law. We also speak with computer scientist, game designer and media artist Ramsey Nasser on the Anti-Capitalist Software License. Finally, we join some of the organizers from the ml5.js programming library, which aims to make “machine learning approachable for a broad audience of artists, creative coders, and students.”
