This paper discusses the availability of intellectual property protection for ideas and research. The main regimes discussed are copyright, patents and confidential information, although designs may also be relevant. The law in this area depends largely upon internationally agreed standards of protection and, in recent years, the Australian legislation has been amended to take account of international conventions and as a result of the formation of the World Trade Organisation. Although the legislation is detailed and highly technical, this article attempts to give an outline of the broad conceptual bases of protection and highlight the relevant threshold criteria. On the whole, it is not possible to protect ideas alone, and only specific categories of subject matter will gain legal protection.

Articulacy of fingers, the language of the deaf and dumb, signing on the body body longing. Who taught you to write in blood on my back? Who taught you to use your hands as branding irons? You have scored your name into my shoulders, referenced me with your mark. The pads of your fingers have become printing blocks, you tap your message onto my skin, tap meaning into my body.... Written on the body is a secret code only visible in certain lights; the accumulation of a life time gather there. In places the palimpsest is so heavily worked that the letters feel like braille. I like to keep my body rolled up away from prying eyes. Never unfold too much, tell the whole story. I didn't know that Louise would have reading hands. She has translated me into her own book.
