Is there yet a movement where artists and creators make a testament that after their death all their work becomes public domain? Ie. an explicit middle ground between default copyright period and immediate PD at the time of publication?
I'd be interested in developing and advocating this kind of movement to widen the common public cultural legacy. But I guess some sort of legal expertise would be good to have. And if this is already a thing, then great, I'll join!
Julkinen kirjailijanurani alkoi tavallaan kymmenen vuotta sitten — pornolla. Saanko esitellä Posliinimestarin:
Kuulin, että Tampereen kansi ja areena -kaupunginosalle etsitään uutta nimeä.
Me sitten kirjoittajakollegojen kanssa tätä vähän stormattiin ja päädyttiin siihen, että paras nimi uudelle kaupunginosalle on:
Se yhdistää busineksen ja Näsijärven kansan suuhun sopivalla tavalla.
Kampanjointi alkakoon.
LB: I just downloaded all the Language Transfer courses as torrents and I'll keep seeding them, just in case the court thinks their distribution should be stopped.
I won't stop it.
Languager Transfer is being accused of patent infringment by some lawyers in the U.S.

Syksy lähestyy! Ja minua haastatellaan Työväenkirjallisuuden päivässä 1.9.2018 Työväenmuseo Werstaalla aiheesta Vallankumous poliittisessa satiirissa.
I just submitted novel 2 of my trilogy to my publisher. Let's see what they think of it.
So here it is, the trailer to my first novel and world's first #velopunk novel.
The texts are in Finnish, as the book is in Finnish, but I guess you can still enjoy the imagery and music.

Ah, the joys of commuter trains at night. It smells like beer, but hey, could be piss too.
Long train trips are nice. Except when they're six hours there and six back on a single day without pause.
And now, to close the night, Angus & Julia Stone play their amazing cover of Tubthumping.
7 of the 24 chapters still to edit. After that a little bit of tidying and such, and this novel is ready to submit.

Finally I've seen the first #fietsstraat of Finland myself.
Now if only there were any fietsers, too...
It's time to make the last edits before sending my novel to DTP.
Of course this is a prime spot to procrastinate, because, you know.
Did you know that "jorts" and "Internet Of Things" were added to the Oxford Dictionary at the same time?

Instagramin korvaaja, @pixelfed julkaistaan betana tämän kuun lopussa. Varasin tulevaisuutta varten osoitteen pixelfed.fi. Toistaiseksi se osoittaa suomenkieliseen versioon pixelfed.org-osoitteesta, mutta ehdin toivottavasti jossain vaiheessa asentamaan testipalvelimen tuohon osoitteeseen.
Today I learned that you can
- have both local and fedetared timelines visible at the same time
- move the said timelines away from the rightmost columns
by pinning them.
And this after using Mastodon for more than a year. 🙄
