At this Fair Use/Fair Dealing Week event, hear filmmaker, artist and curator Craig Baldwin speak about “orphan works,” copyrighted materials that no longer have an owner or sponsorship, thereby falling into the public domain or becoming obsolete. In his Orphan Morphin' presentation, Baldwin “surfs the wave of obsolescence” using spoken word, graphics and motion picture clips to advocate for the radical re-working of marginalized film material in the forms of collage, compilation-doc and speculative fiction.
