Andy Baio on Remix Culture & the Law

http://vimeo.com/62839607

An interesting and articulate piece regarding the real world impacts of copyright on “remix” creators was recently posted. The talk was given in Portland in January by Andy Baio, a writer and coder who had some particularly interesting experiences involving litigation initiated by the photographer Steven Meisel. All of which relates directly to one of the key questions in the course – whether even reforming fair dealing/use would be enough or whether something akin to a “Right to Create” needs to be established?
