“It was odd, she thought, how if one was alone, one leant to inanimate things; trees, streams, flowers; felt they expressed one; felt they became one; felt they knew one, in a sense were one; felt an irrational tenderness thus (she looked at that long steady light) as for oneself. There rose, and she looked and looked with her needles suspended, there curled up off the floor of the mind, rose from the lake of one’s being, a mist, a bride to meet her lover.”

Season 2 of the podcast is live!

Eric and I kick off season 2 with one of my favorite authors of all time, Virginia Woolf.

I was so excited that I also wrote an essay.

Man, is @internetarchive cool.

Here is their comprehensive post on stuff entering the #publicdomain on January 1, including 100% of #SherlockHolmes, #VirginiaWoolf's #ToTheLighthouse, and the film #Metropolis.

And here are the key #legal takeaways on recent #court decisions that stymied last-gasp efforts from the #ArthurConanDoyle estate, among others, to prolong #copyright forever. Via #Duke University.

(Edited to remove an error)

o First, under US copyright law, anyone is free to use a character as it has been developed in public domain works, whether it is Winnie-the-Pooh, Sherlock Holmes, or Mickey Mouse (next year). If that character recurs in later works that are still under copyright, the rights only extend to the newly added material in those works, not the underlying material from the public domain works—that content remains freely available.

o Second, not all of the newly added material in the later works is copyrightable. In order to qualify for copyright, it must be “original, creative expression,” meaning that it was independently created (as opposed to copied from somewhere else) and possesses at least a modicum of creativity. Mere “ideas” such as generic character traits are not copyrightable. Nor are “merely trivial” variations added to the original character. In addition, using commonplace elements that have become standard or indispensable (copyright law calls these “scénes a faire”) is not infringement.

I need a cart to push my reading materials and coffee accoutrements from one end of my apartment to the other. That's how serious it's gotten.

Finally settled in bed with all I need. I hope.

And here's a book on Cornwall purchased in Penzance, one of several source materials I'm reading for my To the Lighthouse re-read.

Oh, crap. Forgot my notebook and lap desk. (Expletive)

I keep forgetting the necessity of hashtags here.

It's #reading #sunday #coffee in bed day. Today it's #virginiawoolf, #cornwall and all things #tothelighthouse related.

Here's a picture from #penzance and the #atlanticocean from my 2018 stay there.

Next time I'll put hashtags at the bottom I guess. #learning
