Reasons to like the Barbican

Submitted by Philip Storry on

I enjoyed a very nice stroll around the Barbican at lunch today.

 

One of the reasons I really like walking around there is that it separates you from road traffic. It's not just the much lower level of noise, but also the fact that nothing apart from joggers is moving much faster than you. That makes it feel much more serene. It encourages you to slow down and relax.

For a couple of years now, I've been more and more disappointed with the way the world's IP laws have been trending. I believe that they are moving away from their original intentions in subtle (and not-so-subtle) ways, and that this is increasingly rendering them unfit for purpose.

So I thought I'd write a series of short articles in which I take a positive stance, and say how we can improve them.

Here's the rough outline of what to expect - links will be provided as each one is written:
