a physical support Explanation: I agree with Kim: to start with, it really begs the indefinite article, and as he says, it simply reeks of a translation from FR. |

peer agreement (net): +5fixation of the work in a medium Explanation: La notion d’« œuvre » renvoie à toute forme d’expression matérialisée et originale. La fixation à un support matériel constitue une condition sine qua non de la production d’une œuvre. Ainsi, « produire » une œuvre fait référence à une première matérialisation et la « reproduire » à toute fixation matérielle ultérieure qui s’inspire (au sens causal) de la première fixation. La fixation à un nouveau support matériel constitue donc l’élément fondamental de l’acte de « reproduire [. . .] sous une forme matérielle quelconque » ce qui existait déjà sous une première forme matérielle. Un tel comportement relève du plagiat et constitue une violation des droits d’auteur trouvés au par. 3(1) L.d.a. The concept of “work” refers to any materialized and original form of expression. Fixation of the work in a medium is a condition sine qua non of the production of a work. Therefore, “producing” a work refers to the initial materialization and “reproducing” it refers to any subsequent material fixation that is modelled (in the causal sense) on its first fixation. Fixation of the work in a new medium is therefore the fundamental element of the act of “reproduc[ing] . . . in any material form whatever” what already existed in a first, original material form. That type of conduct amounts to plagiarism and constitutes an infringement of copyright under s. 3(1) C.A. http://scc.lexum.org/en/bulletin/2002/02-03-28.bul/02-03-28.... -------------------------------------------------- Note added at 33 mins (2012-01-24 13:53:05 GMT) -------------------------------------------------- Work fixed in a medium Copyrightable work is original work fixed in a medium—literary works; musical works; dramatic works … http://www.councilscienceeditors.org/files/scienceeditor/v25... -------------------------------------------------- Note added at 1 hr (2012-01-24 14:36:24 GMT) -------------------------------------------------- Or fixed in any material form a performance of an artistic work, dramatic work or musical work, whether or not the work was previously fixed in any material form Selon le cas, que l’oeuvre soit encore protégée ou non et qu’elle soit déjà fixée sous une forme matérielle quelconque ou non http://lois-laws.justice.gc.ca/fra/lois/C-42/TexteComplet.ht... |
