IViR awarded HERA-ESF
Collaborative Research Project Grant
|
From 2010-2013 IViR will
head a 1 million euro research project entitled Of
Authorship and Originality. Reclaiming Copyright in
Support of Creative Collaboration in the Digital
Environment. In collaboration with prof. Lionel
Bently at the University of Cambridge and prof. Jostein
Gripsrud at the University of Bergen, associate
professor Mireille van
Eechoud secured the grant in the highly competitive
'Humanities in the European Research Area' call 2009.
The HERA-ESF programme is a joint programme of national
science foundations, set up to derive new insights from
humanities research in order to address major social,
cultural, and political challenges facing Europe. Within
the theme 'Humanities as a Source of Creativity and
Innovation', the multidisciplinary collaborative
research project focuses on how theories from the
Humanities on authorship and creativity can help
rearticulate copyright norms that enable creative
practices in the digital environment. Van Eechoud will
lead the project in which three research teams
consisting of post-docs, PhDs and senior researchers
will take part.
