Leveraging IP Awareness Among Law Students in Puerto Rico
No full textWhen Lorraine Juarbe, a professor of law at the Inter-American University of Puerto Rico, learned about the World Intellectual Property Day 2023 Video Competition, she couldn’t think of a better way for her students to grasp the importance of intellectual property (IP) rights. She rallied her students and encouraged them to work together to produce what became a prize-winning entry. In the process of creating their entry, the students had to really think about why IP rights are important for inventors, creators, and entrepreneurs, how we all benefit from creative ecosystems that are inclusive and diverse, and why it is important to raise understanding and awareness of IP in all sectors. Their entry overcame tough competition, winning third prize out of 180 entries from 72 countries

Film Scholar Identifies First Copyrighted Movie
No full textThe perfectly folded letter opened, and pictures dropped out — 18 small images imprinted in two strips on a single sheet. Three men stand around an anvil, enacting a scene from a blacksmith’s shop. “I froze,” says Claudy Op den Kamp, the film scholar who extracted the letter from a Library of Congress archival box in Culpeper, Virginia, USA, in the summer of 2022. “I couldn’t grasp what I was holding.” She certainly hadn’t expected the pictures. Dated Nov. 14, 1893, the letter was signed “W.K.L. Dickson.” She knew him as the head photographer at Thomas Edison’s New Jersey laboratory at a time when Edison was racing against competitors to establish himself as the father of motion pictures — as if, she says, having invented the light bulb and the phonograph wasn’t enough
