Metalsmith BenchTalk with Harriete Estel Berman

My Guest on Thursday, August 22nd at 3 p.m. PDT on MetalSmith BenchTalk is artist and writer Harriete Estel Berman, who returns to the show to discuss the crucial issue of "The GOOD, The BAD, and the UGLY in the Age of the Internet" and how that applies to fellow artists.

 

About: The art and craft community has been impacted by the Internet and digital technologies. What are the ethical and legal issues surrounding tutorials, workshops, or sharing information that you did not write? What is the impact of the workshop imposter on the craft community? Has our “desire for attention” and “carelessness provided no one will notice” created an environment that prefers not to discuss difficult issues? Respecting intellectual property needs to part of the discussion for the healthy growth of crafts.
