The documentary RIP: A remix manifesto which makes the point that the copyright laws are outdated when the technological tools have been democratized, almost anyone can get the tools to create.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