The Pirate Bay – Away From Keyboard

It’s the day before the trial starts. Fredrik packs a computer into a rusty old Volvo. Along with his Pirate Bay co-founders, he faces $13 million in damage claims to Hollywood in a copyright infringement case. Fredrik is on his way to install a new computer in the secret server hall. This is where the world’s largest file sharing site is hidden.

When the hacker prodigy Gottfrid, the internet activist Peter and the network nerd Fredrik are found guilty, they are confronted with the reality of life offline – away from keyboard. But deep down in dark data centres, clandestine computers quietly continue to duplicate files.

everything is a remix – part 4

die vierte und somit letzte teil von everything is a remix ist diese woche online gegangen. der finale teil beleuchtet das scheitern des gaengigen urheberrechts- und verwertungssystems.

Our system of law doesn’t acknowledge the derivative nature of creativity. Instead, ideas are regarded as property, as unique and original lots with distinct boundaries. But ideas aren’t so tidy. They’re layered, they’re interwoven, they’re tangled. And when the system conflicts with the reality… the system starts to fail.

Q: lolwut CC licensed?
A: this is to avoid DMCA takedown trolling.
Also to honor decent licensing models, since the Musician published his music under the same license. Which is great.

dj spooky vortrag zu remix culture

paul miller aka dj spooky aka that subliminal kid sollte euch allen irgendwie ein begriff sein. neben seinen ganzen musikalischen aktivitaeten, setzt er sich auch mit dem themenkomplex copyright – remix culture – internet auseinander. dazu habe ich vor ein paar tagen einen etwas aelteren vortrag (von 2008 – dafuer aber in voller laenge und in einem stueck) in der tube gefunden.

der 1. teil des videos ist die eigentliche praesentation (inkl. audio/videosamples), der 2. teil ist q&a-session. stattgefunden hat das an der school of information and library science (university of north carolina).
das ganze steht unter cc-lizenz (by-nc-sa):

DJ Spooky (Paul Miller) talks about the history of media and thoughts about media in culture. He discusses and demonstrates the unexpected side effects of free speech, law, and copyright while showing the power of remixed art. The future and meaning of remix culture is discussed.

Was kommt nach dem Copyright?:

Keiner gibt es zu, aber viele tun es: Fotos, Filme und Musik aus dem Internet herunterladen, ohne einen Cent dafür zu bezahlen. Die in der Regel jugendlichen “Netz-Piraten” werden von Legionen von Anwälten international gejagt. Andererseits entscheiden sich immer mehr renommierte Künstler, ihre kreativen Produkte kostenlos übers Internet anzubieten und Platten- oder Filmfirmen gezielt zu übergehen.

Sind Copyright und geistiges Eigentum Auslaufmodelle? Bringt das Internet eine neue Ökonomie des Teilens hervor? Diese Fragen wirft das Linzer Kulturfestival „Ars Electronica“ 2008 auf. Und Günter Kaindlstorfer geht ihnen in einer aufwendigen Dokumentation nach.

RiP: A Remix Manifesto:
is a 2008 open source documentary film about the “the changing concept of copyright” directed by Brett Gaylor.

Created over a period of six years, the documentary film features the collaborative remix work of hundreds of people who have contributed to the Open Source Cinema website, helping to create the “world’s first open source documentary” as Gaylor put it. The project’s working title was Basement Tapes, (probably referring to the album of the same name) but it was renamed RiP!: A Remix Manifesto prior to theatrical release. Gaylor encourages more people to create their own remixes from this movie, using media available from the Open Source Cinema website, or other websites like YouTube, Flickr or MySpace.

kleine anmerkung diesmal:
wenn ihr keine us-ip habt koennt ihr euch den film nicht ueber die website laden, sondern muesst auf piratebay (oder aehnliches) zurueckgreifen. was ich eigentlich haarstraeubend und unverstaendlich finde. noch viel mehr wenn man sich den film angesehen hat. ich weiss nicht was die macher da geritten hat, aber das ist ein tiefer griff ins klo. ist mir komplett unverstaendlich sowas.
aber trotzdem schaut euch den film an. ist gut gemacht das ding. letztendlich ist es auch egal wo ihr euch den film gesaugt habt.
