little as possible. Yes, I actually had this dream....

bottles anymore. If you've
been following my progress, the final tally was 5 for 7. Only two
losers in seven outings, putting my winning percentage at 71%. Given
that they claimed 33% would win, I'm either really lucky (doubtful),
they wanted almost everyone to win, or demand wasn't nearly as high as
they thought.

Dream job
Dream job
04/04/2005 12:36 AMThis news hasn't exactly been a secret up until now, but it hasn't
been official either. Starting tomorrow, I'll be hanging up the
Creative Commons jersey to start work full-time at Google, as a
product advisor and eventually product counsel. Before I go, I have
plenty to say about, and many people to thank for, the amazing
experience Creative Commons has been.
Just over three years ago, I started work at Creative Commons with
little idea of what I was getting into. It involved copyright, I knew,
and it involved Lawrence Lessig, and that alone was enough to ditch my
plans to practice law in New York. (Ok, practicing law wasn't too
tough to pass up, but New York was.) It became clear shortly into the
job that the decision was even better than I'd ever imagined. It was
as if everything I'd done, in school, at work, and through my hobbies,
had culminated in this position working for an embryonic nonprofit
called Creative Commons.
Here are three little anecdotes that give a glimpse into how
winding up at Creative Commons was, for me, like making a brand-new
friend whom I felt I'd known forever.
In college, I played in a band. We weren't particularly good, but
we had a great time, and over two years I learned the single most
important lesson about creativity that I've learned to date: Next to
romance (with which creativity shares a few features), making
something with friends, with everyone contributing different but equal
parts, has got to be the most fun thing in the world. It's also, I
realized, the only way things really get made. I don't care if you're
Bob Dylan -- nothing comes out of your own head and into life without
the influence of others, whether living or dead. (Every time you pick
up a guitar, you're collaborating with the dead.) I started looking
more closely at CD liner notes, at writers' biographies, at the
acknowledgements sections of books, looking for clues into the
real story behind the creation of anything credited to only
one person. I didn't find much, and I didn't understand why.
In law school, I wrote an article about the musical Rent
-- not my favorite piece of art, by a long shot, but one with a great
joint-authorship dispute at its center. The playwright worked closely
with a dramaturge to get the show into Broadway shape, and pretty much
everyone agreed that without the dramaturge's contributions, the final
show would never have existed. Problem was, they had no contract, and
no other paperwork demonstrating an intent to share authorship credit.
So, a federal court gave the full copyright to the playwright. In the
article I argued that it was nonsense to expect artists to begin a jam
session by filling out paperwork. (If you've seen "Get Creative," our
first flash movie, the line "we interrupt this brainstorm to call the
lawyers" comes straight from that experience.) But, as sure I was that
the rules were wrong, I had no idea what to recommend in their
place.
By the time I finished school, and thanks to a lot of people at the
Berkman Center, I was fully infected with the IP bug. I was genuinely
obsessed with the riddle that we're all still trying to figure out:
How will all this stuff work in the future? How can we keep up this
technological progress without giving artists the shaft? I still
didn't have an answer. I remember very well doing my first stab at
public speaking on a panel at a conference in New York. Siva
Vaidhyanathan also spoke, as did the Dead Kennedy's Jello Biafra.
Biafra was railing against the music industry and professing his love
for Napster (which was then at its peak), but also explaining how he
didn't want his songs winding up in Coca-Cola commercials. I remember
saying something like, "Hey, Jello, you can't have it both ways."
That statement ranks right up there with the time in 1995, when I
told a scholarship interview committee that the Internet "was
overrated," as the dumbest thing I've ever said.
It wasn't until I finally wrapped my brain around the idea behind
Creative Commons, cooked up collaboratively by our board of directors,
that I felt someone had begun to crack the riddle. That epiphany was
the first of many in my three years here; over and over again I found
myself the lucky steward of other people's amazing ideas. From our
logo (thank you, Ryan Junell) to our icons (thanks, Molly) to the
vision of iCommons (Lessig, Christiane, Roland) to the Tech Challenges
page (Hal Abelson) to the sampling licenses (Negativland!) to the
WIRED CD (Conde Nast and the whole editorial staff) to CC Mixter
(Neeru) to CC Publisher (Nathan Yergler) to CC Search (Mike, Nutch,
Yahoo!) to our site re-design (Matt, Adaptive Path) -- the list could
go on and on -- I've had the chance to stand at the hub of a giant
collaborative creation without really doing much of the creating. It's
been a bit like being in a band, but I feel more like the guy behind
the soundboard than one of the musicians. And I feel awfully fortunate
to have been there to witness it all.
I'm sure that, in some form or other, I'll carry on with the CC
effort. But in any case, I like to think that like Menudo or Spinal Tap,
we're the kind of band that stays together regardless of the
particular line-up at a given time.
(This is the first of a few posts I'd like to write before
offically signing off. I'm a lame-duck with a few hours of
bully-pulpit left, so bear with me.)

06/02/2004 08:44 AMI woke up this morning from a vivid dream. Someone had been talking
about a philosopher who liked to fast before he thought. Not for me, I
replied, or else, Rene a la Carte would have written "I think,
therefore I yam." Look, it was just a dream, ok? At least I didn't
have Jean Paul Sartre writing Being and Muffinness. Nor did Sartre say
"Hell is other Peeps." Nor did Kant issue his Categorical Aperitif. So
just leave me alone....
