About

GikIII is a two day workshop on the intersections between law, technology and popular culture.

Previous Gikiis have featured net neutrality explained via LOLcats, the surveillance implications of Harry Potter, how to regulate Killer Robots, the first ever Facebook privacy paper, why Japanese manga porn is a challenge for TRIPS, fansubbing and the law, self regulation and slash communities on Live Journal, privacy as seen through sf films, 5D sensory trademarks, blogging and data protection, and why Irish medieval history foresaw Creative Commons. They are generally well attended, mind-blowing and fun.
