on the meaning of "parody"
on the meaning of "parody"
07/27/2004 09:36 AMEveryone's seen the brilliant
JibJab Flash of Bush/Kerry. The
piece claims to be a "parody" of Woody Guthrie's "This Land."
As any copyright lawyer recognizes, it is not a "parody" in the sense
that "fair use" ordinarily recognizes it. A "fair use" "parody" is a
work that uses a work to make fun of the author. JibJab is using
Guthrie's work not to make fun of Guthrie, but of the candidates. (For
the now classic case on this, see
Dr. Suess v. Penguin Press, where a "parody" of
O.J. Simpson using The Cat in the Hat was not "fair use.")
Guthrie's publisher's lawyers too recognize this. As CNN's Allen
Wastler
reports, Guthrie's publisher is now threatening JibJab.
What's great about this story, of course, is the levels of hypocrisy.
Guthrie was not much for property rights himself. It's
said that there is a not-often-sung verse:
As I went walking, I saw a sign there;
And on the sign there, It said, 'NO TRESPASSING.'
But on the other side, It didn't say nothing.
That side was made for you and me!
But whether Guthrie believed in property rights or not, the key thing
this story should do is force us to ask generally: Does a law that
makes a political parody such as Jibjab illegal (even if it is not a
"parody" in the copyright view of the world) make sense?
(Note to citizens: We're permitted to change the law.)

Diminishing America's Meaning
Diminishing America's Meaning
06/10/2004 11:35 AMRichard Cohen (Washington Post): A Plunge from the Moral Heights. The Bush administration
constantly reminds us that there's a war on. That's wrong. There are
two. One is being fought by soldiers in combat, and the other is being
fought for the hearts and minds of people who are not yet our enemies.
However badly the administration has botched the first war -- where,
oh where, is Osama bin Laden? -- it has done even worse with the
second. It has jutted its chin to the world, appeared pugnacious and
unilateralist, permitted the abuse of POWs and others at Abu Ghraib,
and now toyed in some fashion with torture. The Bush administration
has shamed us all, reducing us to the level of those governments that
also have wonderful laws forbidding torture, but condone it anyway.
Even if there wasn't a moral issue, you'd imagine
that even this crowd would grasp the practical necessity of treating
prisoners with decency. If we declare license to do this to other
nations' combatants, other nations will do it to ours.
But the issue is deeper. As Michael Froomkin, professor of law at the
University of Miami, notes on
his blog, the adminstration's rationale is
truly frightening. Of a redacted copy of the Justice Department memo
Ashcroft won't give Congress but which has been leaked widely to the
media, Froomkin writes:
(It) sets out a view of an
unlimited Presidential power to do anything he wants with “enemy
combatants”. The bill of rights is nowhere mentioned. There is
no principle suggested which limits this purported authority to
non-citizens, or to the battlefield. Under this reasoning, it would be
perfectly proper to grab any one of us and torture us if the President
determined that the war effort required it. I cannot exaggerate how
pernicious this argument is, and how incompatible it is with a free
society. The Constitution does not make the President a King. This
memo does.
Will this be the catalyst that helps
Congress find its spine?

Robotics and the Meaning of Life
Robotics and the Meaning of Life
07/20/2004 11:18 AMThe Open University in the UK, has
found a practical use for Asimov's robot stories. They're being used
as
part of a robotics class, called Robotics and the Meaning of Life:
a practical guide to things that think. The Laws of
Robotics are
considered in terms of real control architectures such as subsumption
and on the practicality of using them to design safe robots. Asimov's
Laws are just one part of a larger course that reviews the history and
state of the art in robotics from
R.U.R.
and the Turing
Test to Moore's
law. Students get hands-on experience using a Lego Mindstorms
compatible
robotics
simulator called OU-Robotlab.
Required reading for the course includes Asimov's I,
Robot, and Ruth Aylett's Robots:
Bringing Intelligent Machines to Life.
Meaning Mobile Entertainment
Meaning Mobile Entertainment
07/28/2004 01:20 PMJustin Hall explains what he's about.....

Two new articles give some sense of what I
trumpet as a freelance writer. I cover
technology, digital culture, and electronic entertainment. What I get
most excited about professionally these days is mobile multiplayer - I
have the feeling like mobile phones have terrific potential for play,
for poking fun, for horsing around. So I keep my eye out for signs
that these devices are becoming less productive.
I found one of those signs recently, and finished an article about
it this morning:
Mobile Play by Mail - The future of wireless entertainment may
well lie in some of the oldest modern games. Soon, your buddy list may
light up with game moves as well as messages.
This was a fun article to write, because I had a chance to research
some of the history of games played through the post. That's some
dedicated gameplay! Filling out 3x5 cards and mailing them around -
cards filled with orders and movements and even intrigue. Play by Mail games
were an early way to enjoy social, multiplayer gaming before the
internet. And I saw a company in Hong Kong that has instituted Play
by Mail gaming for mobile devices and so this article is working to
spell out some of the best potential for that technology.
For a broader view of the positive potential for mobile
entertainment, check out my last article before that:
Mobile Entertainment: The Power of Play. In that piece I argue
that mobile entertainment serves a critical social function -- it
will teach us how to be connected citizens.
Both of these articles were written for TheFeature.com, a
Nokia-sponsored research publication about the mobile internet. I've
been a contributing editor there since August 2003; moving and going
to school has me scaled back to a sort of regular contributor. I look
forward to continuing to write, and play in this area!

Subculture, the meaning of style
Subculture, the meaning of style
09/25/2004 12:03 PM
For Westerners, the index case of subculture has to be the
1960s UK
conflict between the razor-sharp, tailored
mods and their
mortal enemies, the greasy
rockers
.
Difference was critical to these first self-identified
youth subcultures: difference in dress, in music, in drug of choice,
in the favored
mode of
transport...everythin
g. This obsessive focus on not just standing out, but standing out
just so - on showing the world precisely the right angle of a
hat, length of a coat, shortness of hair - has defined many a
subculture since. We recognize
b-boys,
ganguro
girls, and
straightedge
punks by such deployments, among many, many other identifiable
groups. (It's not just a youth thing, either:
leath
ermen and the
delightfully recrudescent
roller derby culture are largely adult phenomena.)
To a
devotee of a given subculture, such matters, far from being a
"narcissism of small differences," are a matter of pivotal
import in framing how one presents oneself to the world:
how we want to
be seen, how we want others to understand us. But I'm getting
older now, and further out of the loop, and I realize that just maybe
I'm losing the ability to discern these differences in the people I
pass walking down the street. I find myself asking, who and where are
the new subcultures? And how do they choose to present themselves to
us?

Google
04/16/2004 06:20 AMThe Nature of Meaning in the Age of Google by Terrence A.
Brooks http://information
r.net/ir/9-3/paper180.htmlAbstract By
Author:The culture of lay indexing has been created by
the aggregation strategy employed by Web search engines such as
Google. Meaning is constructed in this culture by harvesting semantic
content from Web pages and using hyperlinks as a plebiscite for the
most important Web pages. The characteristic tension of the culture of
lay indexing is between genuine information and spam. Google's success
requires maintaining the secrecy of its parsing algorithm despite the
efforts of Web authors to gain advantage over the Googlebot. Legacy
methods of asserting meaning such as the META keywords tag and Dublin
Core are inappropriate in the lawless meaning space of the open Web. A
writing guide is urged as a necessary aid for Web authors who must
balance enhancing expression versus the use of technologies that limit
the aggregation of their work.
