Speaker: Dr Eden Sarid, Essex Law School 

Biography: Eden Sarid is a lecturer at Essex Law School. His research and teaching interests include intellectual property, land law, law and technology, and cultural heritage law.

Abstract: This study offers a new way of thinking through the questions of what drives creativity and the role that IP plays in creative production, by empirically examining how the drag subculture governed creativity, entitlements, and information-exchange over time. First, in the 1990s when drag was a counterculture and from the mid-2010s onwards, after transforming into a lucrative mainstream industry.
