RIP a remix manifesto, version 1 now online

Friday, May 8th, 2009

The documentary RIP: A remix manifesto which makes the point that the copyright laws are outdated when the technological tools have been democratized, almost anyone can get the tools to create.

I’ve been waiting for it to come online, and now it is. The first version that is, if you want to help out and add something to the movie, you can. Just head over to Open Source Cinema or ccmixter if you want to make things for the soundtrack. Eventually a 2.0 version will be released, refined by others. Really cool.

The movie is presented in chapters, which you can watch here.

Embedded here is chapter three.

And on the subject of mashing up, as a bonus to this post, here’s one I made.
[Empire Of The Sun - We are the people (The Golden filter remix) + White stripes - Seven Nation Army (Rip It Off Acid Mix)]

Take 10 minutes to watch this. It’s well worth it.

Made by the same guy that did the iHologram animation mockup last year, David OReilly. Gotta say that this movie is fantastic, it also won the Golden Bear for best short film at the 59th Berlin International Film Festival.

more augmented reality

Wednesday, February 18th, 2009

Came across this one recently but forgot to post it.

General Electrics new campaign about their new “Smartgrid” which is an overhaul/update of americas power grid and aims to get better at distributing alternative energy and anticipate power outages. Sounds fine to me.

Either way, it’s a beautifully produced site, which features some augmented reality (so you need a printer). 

See the beauty at plugintothesmartgrid.com.
