XPUB1 - 11:00-13:00 Aymeric - Something something something about software circulation

As promised, let's have our follow-up discussion after looking into Kittler and C compilers. We'll talk a bit about how software became a thing (and a publishing industry) and we'll talk about source code circulation and how that's possible or not from the perspective of intellectual property laws, slowly building towards the concept of digital commons and cultural environmentalism that emerged in the mid 90s, and that we'll need to understand later on in following meetings the whole mess with free culture, P2P file sharing practices, DRM, and what not.
