Open Source Cinema- Wiki Film and CopyLeft

OpenSourceCinema.orgis a collaborative documentary project to create a feature film about copyright in the digital age. Watch the trailer video, it is just what Hong Kong digital copyright law maker should really look into. Opening Nanny is awesome and I bet John Lennon, Lou Reed are proud of the soundtrack too.

Check out the wiki film page from Bret(creator of open source cinema)

Great discussion between an avid open source developer and Bret himself :
">As an avid open source developer, I'm sometimes puzzled about how the Open Source concept is >bantered around, without any real understanding of how it works in the real world.

The concept of Open Source is expanding beyond software. Check out http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Open_content

>Opens Source software projects are often very restrictive in nature, and have very few people who are >actually allowed to contribute to the source tree; this usually happens only after many months or even >years of proving that they can cut it as a core developer.

This isn't a project like that ;) . Ultimately, the film Basement Tapes will be assembled by me, but this space (the website) should be about Creative anarchy. It isn't owned by anyone and should be fluid. This is the difference between art and software - art needs a LOT of influence.

damn! Luckily, we live in a world where increasingly, millions of people REALIZE they have something to offer the world!

We have been talking about cut up the other day and Windful asked me about the difference between editing, collage and cut up, I hope this video can give some insight.
