    Ethical dilemma: Should knowledge be unrestricted? - Michael Vazquez and Will Kanwischer

    Puzzle through the ethical dilemma of intellectual property rights, and decide: how should we determine ownership of work? -- In the city of Ockham, spellcasters invent incantations and publish them in scrolls that others can purchase. Unfortunately, you can’t always afford them. But one day, a friend tells you he uses an illegal duplication spell to copy scrolls. So, do you use his counterfeit scrolls to further your own research? Michael Vazquez and Will Kanwischer explore the ethics of intellectual property rights. Lesson by Michael Vazquez and Will Kanwischer, directed by Patrick Smith.

And what can be done? Explore the challenges of net zero emissions. Directed by Lisa LaBracio. Animation and art direction by Luísa M H Copetti & Hype CG.
