Cinem@tech Film Screening: RiP: A Remix Manifesto
Filmmaker Brett Gaylor explores issues of copyright in the information age. The film’s central protagonist is Girl Talk, a mash-up musician topping the charts with his sample-based songs. Creative Commons founder, Lawrence Lessig, Brazil’s Minister of Culture Gilberto Gil, and pop culture critic Cory Doctorow are also along for the ride.
If you missed the screening during Open Access Week, you can watch the entire film online for free, in the spirit of open access (highly recommended!). Visit http://films.onf.ca/rip-a-remix-manifesto/ to watch the film.
