RiP: A Remix Manifesto
RiP: A Remix Manifesto is a new documentary by Brett Gaylor that explores the issues of copyright in pop culture. The film investigates “the complexities of intellectual property in the digital era” by following mash-up artist Girl Talk and other personalities such as Creative Commons founder Lawrence Lessig.
Gaylor has also been experimenting with the open source movement with his own movie by launching OpenSourceCinema.org, a website where anyone can remix his footage. The website, which seeks to improve online collaboration, will continue to be used for other projects after the film is released. Gaylor also invites the public to help create the soundtrack of the film by creating music using Creative Commons licensed samples at http://ccmixter.org/rip.
RiP: A Remix Manifesto will be screened in Canadian theatres starting March 6.
