note = "Cornelia Sollfrank is artist and researcher lecturing at Duncan of Jordanstone College of Art and Design at Dundee University, Scotland. Her practice can be situated in the context of institutional critique and experimental activist art. Since the mid 1990s her conceptual works involve digital networked technology, writing, performance and video. As a pioneer of Internet art she made a name for herself with her net.art generator, an Internet-based art-producing {\textquoteleft}machine.{\textquoteright} Parallel to her collaborative, infrastructure-building work for self-organization and publication she continues the anti-modernist challenges of traditional notions of authorship, authenticity and originality in the digital environment. Her experiments with the basic principles of aesthetic modernism implied conflicts with its institutional and legal framework and led to her current research on copyright and art. In 2012 Sollfrank completed her Ph.D. with the title “Performing the Paradoxes of Intellectual Property: A Practice-Led Investigation Into the Conflicting Relationship Between Copyright and Art.” ",
