02/18/2004 01:24 PM DJ Danger Mouse has been
making waves recently with his
Grey Album that cross-pollinates
the music of
The Beatles'
classic
White Album with the lyrics and delivery of
Jay-Z's
recent swan song, the
Black Album. The results?
"One of
the more interesting pirate mashups ever done." (
Pitchfork).
"Most ambitious remix."
(
Village
Voice).
"As fun as it is daring." (
Boston Globe).
"Ultimate
remix record." (
Roll
ing Stone). Not surprisingly,
EMI is far from
amuse
d by the unsanctioned and unapproved project and the limited
release
will no longer be distributed. So,
download it now
(or check out these
Real Player
samples).

Copyright and creativity issues raised
by Grey Tuesday event
03/06/2004 01:55 AM
A Web-based controversy this week over a mix
album highlighted divisions over copyright policy. The Grey Album , recently published
by DJ Danger Mouse ,
combines and adds to music from the Beatles' White
Album . Since Danger Mouse did not obtain permission to use
the older content, its owners, the
EMI Group, asked the artist to cease and desist.
In response, a Web-based firestorm of opposition has arisen . Copyright critics , such as Lawrence Lessig , have called
this a suppression of
creativity and speech,
rendering some art illegal
. Numerous Web sites
collaborated to publicly
host copies of the album.
The copyright holders, in contrast, see this as a basic copyright
infringement case:
EMI views any distribution, reproduction or public performance of "The
Grey Album" to be a copyright violation. "They may say EMI is trying
to stop an artwork," said Jeanne Meyer, an EMI spokeswoman, referring
to the Web sites, "but they neglect to understand that there is a
well-established market for licensing samples, and Mr. Burton didn't
participate in it."

Nintendo is launching the black and white versions of the
Nintendo DS in Japan today, in case you're in the market for a
slightly nicer looking model. I'm glad I have a DS, if for the
first-party Nintendo games if nothing else (Advance Wars and Animal
Crossing will take up plenty of my time) but I still can't help but
look at my PSP sitting just beyond the DS and wonder what, exactly,
it's going to take for Nintendo to recover from Sony's onslaught. It's
going to take a lot more than colored DSes, for sure.

The Sokos Torni Hotel has a lovely view of the city from the cafe on
the top of the tower, but in winter the balcony is often closed due to
winds, ice or both. So, I had to settle for a picture taken from the
inside. You can see plague park and a few of the church steeples
before it drops off into the vast white expanse of the Gulf of
Finland. Snow on the rooftops and a low, flat and grey sky that looks
close enough to touch.
Grey Goo Gone?
Grey Goo Gone?
06/09/2004 08:46 PMForget those fears of nanoscale, self-replicating robots reducing the
world to grey goo
and wiping out civilization.
Eric Drexler, who
first warned us the world would be consumed by
nanobots now thinks maybe it won't happen. His solution? Instead of
building intelligent, self-replicating nanotechnology, we should build
limited,
dumb nanobots that would be permanently mounted in a sort of 3D
printer
arrangement.
Drexler says "a machine like a desktop printer is, to say the least,
unlikely to go wild, replicate, self-organise into intelligent
systems,
and eat people". Read the Guardian
article for the overview or visit e-drexler.com to find out all the
details.
The Grey Album
The Grey Album
02/16/2004 05:25 PMA few months ago, hip-hop artist Jay Z released what is reportedly
his last album, titled The Black
Album. He also released a vocals-only version, specifically for
DJs to incorporate into new mixes. One of those mixes was done by DJ Dangermouse, using only
samples from The Beatles' White Album. This new mix was dubbed The
Grey Album and a limited pressing was made. After a
mention in the New Yorker, copies quickly showed up online
and spread like wildfire.
EMI, the rights holders to The Beatles' recordings issued a cease
and desist order to record stores and online merchants selling it last
week, since the sampling was done without permission from either Jay Z
or The Beatles. Executive Director of the Creative Commons, Glenn Otis
Brown was quoted in a Wired
News piece about the album and points out the problems of
copyright being used to silence DJ Dangermouse and his popular
mix.

Drexler says no to "grey goo" myths
Drexler says no to "grey goo" myths
06/14/2004 11:40 AMNanotechnology pioneer
Eric Drexler has
co-authored a paper in a scientific journal addressing fears
surrounding self-replicating nano-machines. The paper, co-written by
Chris Phoenix of the
Center for
Responsible Nanotechnology, was published in the journal
Nanotechnology last week. From the abstract:
"In the light of controversy regarding scenarios based on
runaway replication (so-called 'grey goo'), a review of current
thinking regarding nanotechnology-based manufacturing is in order.
Nanotechnology-based fabrication can be thoroughly non-biological and
inherently safe: such systems need have no ability to move about, use
natural resources, or undergo incremental mutation. Moreover,
self-replication is unnecessary: the development and use of highly
productive systems of nanomachinery (nanofactories) need not involve
the construction of autonomous self-replicating nanomachines.
Accordingly, the construction of anything resembling a dangerous
self-replicating nanomachine can and should be prohibited. Although
advanced nanotechnologies could (with great difficulty and little
incentive) be used to build such devices, other concerns present
greater problems. Since weapon systems will be both easier to build
and more likely to draw investment, the potential for dangerous
systems is best considered in the context of military competition and
arms control." Link

White men bad; white dogs worse
White men bad; white dogs worse
04/05/2005 09:24 AMWe spent the weekend in Gettysburg, Pennsylvania with an
anthropologist friend who has two 3-year-old bitches (Lab and
Husky) and 4 acres of land on which Alex and Sammy
could play with them. One of the nice things about colleges
located in areas where real estate is cheap is that the professors
live close to the campus and are available to students for informal
dinners and shared extracurricular activities. Thus over the
weekend we encountered a few other Gettysburg College
professors. I asked one of them whether faculty could bring
their dogs to work. She replied "The college's Affirmative
Action lawyer, before she left, made up a lot of new rules. One
of them was that junior and senior faculty could not sleep
together. Another was to ban dogs in the buildings."
This is a good measure of how desperate PhDs are for jobs as
college professors. The college pays lower salaries, to people
of the same age, as the public high school down the street. The
high school teachers were able to go to work at age 22 without
suffering through a long period of starvation wages as graduate
assistants. The high school teachers are union members who ever
have to worry about losing their job, compared to the college
professors who live for 7 years in fear of being tossed out as a
middle-aged has-been ("denied tenure" is the polite term for this
event). And now these poor souls are expected to get through
their day without a dog at their side and without the possibility of
an interlude with a more senior professor.
[Note to parents: if you want to know why tuition prices have
risen so fast, consider that a very small liberal arts school was
paying a full-time lawyer to work on affirmative action; Walmart has a
"Chief Diversity Officer" but they had $billions in revenue over which
to spread the cost.]

The Grey Lady of Willard Library
The Grey Lady of Willard Library
10/31/2003 06:07 AM "On a cold winter morning in 1937, a janitor grabbed his
flashlight and headed down into the pitch-black basement of the
Willard Library to stoke the coal furnace." And so begins the
legend of the "
Lady in
Grey," an apparition said to be haunting the aisles of the
Evansville, Indiana building to this very day. In fact, so many have
been said to have
seen her,
and other ghosts, that the library has set up 24-hour
online web cams so that others
may try their hand at spectre spotting. Whether real or not, the cams
have revealed some
interesting, yet
creepy pictures and, some
rather
silly
spoofs.

David
Brown: "Imagine a language where persistence is assumed, and if
you want something to be transient, you have to do something
different."
I find it amazing that so many people with Frontier experience are still on the Web,
and then boom, yesterday's announcement, and they're chattin it up
wonderng what it means. Me too.
It's good to see all the old faces, and it's good to see that
the years haven't dampened their enthusiasm. Yeah, we're a little worse for
the wear, it's cool that the code ages more gracefully than we do.
David Gewirtz says he can't wait to see how some of the features he's
been using for years were implemented. That's the spirit I love. David
I think you'll like it. There's an architecture in there.
I've found that a good script writer can become a good kernel
developer, it takes a few months, maybe more; with Brent and Andre
being the two great examples. And Tim Paustian too. I don't think any
of them had experience with C-level programming, but at some level
working on the kernel is like working in the environment it defines.
It's a little more difficult, but the code runs a lot faster.
In the age of multi-gigahertz CPUs and gigabyte memories, the
possibilities are awesome.
BTW, people who say that it's too late can't know that. And the
expectations are low. All I want it to see the technology preserved.
If one young programmer in Podunk learns something from it, the way I
learned from reading the Unix kernel in the late 70s, then I'm happy.
If it exists on a hard drive somewhere in the year 2040, that'll
exceed my expectations wildly. If a bug gets fixed or a new technique
is learned from reading the code, that would be fantastic. We're not
finished giving, yet.
