use the terms participatory journalism, grassroots journalism,
citizens journalism to all describe basically the same thing -
journalism as conversation, or what Dan Gillmor has called the

LotR movies remixed as trenchant Russian
political satire
LotR movies remixed as trenchant Russian
political satire
05/18/2004 04:11 PMDmitri Puchkov is a Russian ex-cop who goes by the alias Goblin.
"Goblin" is his nom-de-edit when he's remixing Lord of the Rings,
dubbing in Russian dialogue to lampoon cops, oligarchs, and gangsters.
He's working on a re-cut of Star Wars now. (This is old news, but I
only just read about it)
Frodo Baggins is renamed Frodo Sumkin (a derivative from the Russian
word sumka, or bag). The Ranger, Aragorn, is called Agronom (Russian
for farm worker). Legolas is renamed Logovaz, after a Russian car
company famed for its Ladas. Boromir becomes Baralgin, after a Russian
type of paracetemol.
Gandalf spends much of the film trying to impress others with his
in-depth knowledge of Karl Marx, and Frodo is cursed with the filthy
tongue of a Russian criminal.
The films - which Puchkov says were originally made for his close
friends but have now gone out on the internet - have found cult appeal
in Russia's crowded pirate market, where a pirated, high-quality DVD
in both Russian and English costs £5. That is all ordinary
Russians, who earn only $300 a month in Moscow, can afford. The
Russian pirate industry is worth $311 million, and has grown by 25 per
cent since last year, pirates making more than 40 million disks a
year.

04/13/2005 11:51 AMCory Doctorow:

The Narutrix is a remix of the Matrix Reloaded trailer made by
synching the audio from the trailer with carefully, cunningly chosen
clips from an anime cartoon called Naruto. The effect is very funny
and striking. As the creator says, "Timing is my speciality so it is
pretty heavily focussed on that; lipsyncing, punches connecting,
things going boom, the usual."

Thanks, Mimi!)
Update: Andrew sez, "The
flood of traffic has pinned down the Narutrix site. People can also download the video from animemusicvideos.org, or my website."

"Robert Crumb" (the cartoonist, who used to play tenor banjo in one of
my favorite bands, The Cheap Suit Serenaders). I'll be damned if Music

Warner Music Tries (And Fails) To Make
Friends With Music Bloggers
08/16/2004 06:48 AMMP3 blogs have been getting a lot of attention lately. The blogs,
which usually focus on certain genres of music with the idea to
highlight or expose certain new or obscure acts to a wider audience
are growing in popularity. They often post an entire MP3 as well.
However, it appears that some of the attention directed at these blogs
made it to some executives at Warner Brothers Records. In a moment of
enlightenment (considering typical record company reaction), instead
of trying to shut these sites down, they decided to see what would
happen if they embraced them. Someone from Warner
contacted a number of
these blogs, including an MP3 from a band they wanted to promote.
This is somewhat surprising, as many of the sites certainly expected
to get sued before they received MP3s from a major label. Still, the
effort had its problems. The musician had already been featured
months ago on some of the sites, and didn't fit at all with the focus
of some of the other sites. Plus, the fear of looking like record
company lackeys didn't appeal to many of the sites. Even worse,
though, was that on the one site that did post the tracks, a number of
out-of-place comments began appearing talking about how "awesome" the
band was. A quick check of the IP addresses of the posters, though,
showed they came from... Warner Brothers. So, while it's really great
that they're actually trying to embrace these sorts of promotions,
they still need to learn a thing or two about dealing with bloggers.
Still, it's clearly a step forward from an industry that hasn't made
many steps in that direction recently.
