Copyright Task List

Copyright Task List

For all of the materials I received or made photocopies of, they were all procured in the purpose of research. If Joshua decides he wants to use any of the materials, in order to receive official copies and obtain legal rights for publication, we proceed according to one of the following situations.

Situation #1: Wave owns copyright to all materials associated with author. In this case, nothing new needs to happen.

Situation #2: Wave owns copyright to the author's materials, but not the publication (interviews, collaboration, performances recorded by a source not related to Wave, etc.) In this case, I would find all the persons associated with the work and determine whether or not they own the rights. Then I would contact each stakeholder and describe our project and works desired to use. Beyond this, Joshua would take over in negotiating publication.

Situation #3: Wave does not have copyright to any of the materials. In this case, we would carefully narrow down materials and determine which are vital in order to limit amount of negotiations and use of previously published materials since the intention is always to create a unique product or contribute a new perspective to an ongoing conversation in the poetry world. We would then proceed in the same manner as the previous situation.

For all of my projects, I have not made it very far in the process and still have limited experience with copyright. Joshua discussed it in depth in order to expand my knowledge and will continue our conversation as these projects progress.

Bibliography: “Hypnotherapy and Poetry Articles Bibliography”
Subject: Joshua asked me to investigate the use of hypnotherapy in the construction of poetry. He gave me two resources he had previously found that referred to this process as “trance poetry”. He said he wanted to expand even further than this in order to create a pamphlet about the topic. A pamphlet is a 10-page paper booklet usually used for education purposes. Below I detail why each of these items is relevant. At the end, two items that I found in my search that were not relevant are included along with explanation.

Adams, Peter. "Language, Mysticism, and Hypnotizability: a Brief Communication." International Journal of Clinical and Experimental Hypnosis. 56.1 (2008): 73-82. Print.
            This discussed the use of hypnotherapy as an experiment with language.

Blanchard, Margaret, and S B. Sowbel. "The Breaking of Waves in a Steady Surf: the Transformative Power of Rhythm and Emotion in Poetry." Journal of Poetry Therapy. 18.1 (2005): 249-263. Print.
            Although not directly related to hypnotherapy, this article referenced a poet associated with Wave and her work in poetry therapy.

Cirillo, Leonard, and Cathleen Crider. "Distinctive Therapeutic Uses Of Metaphor." Psychotherapy: Theory, Research, Practice, Training 32.4 (1995): 511-519. Print.
            Metaphor is huge part of poetry and the use of it coupled with hypnotherapy is loosely related to the topic assigned.

Although this site was included as a resource in one of books Joshua gave me, it did not provide any relevant information to the topic. This was true for the majority of this publication’s bibliography.
