As FreeCulture (the
movement -- nothing to do with me) points out, one weakness to the web
that would nag Ted Nelson is the inability easily and always to point
directly to a part of the text on a webpage. Tre
vor Smith has solved that with Free Culture, the book. Here's a version of the book with each paragraph
linked to an href. Very cool.

Lou Reed wants remixes
Lou Reed wants remixes07/15/2004 03:20 AM Lou Reed has endorsed remixing of his work -- he should adopt a
Creative Commons remix license to legalise it!
"I've been getting all these great mixes sent to me out of the U.K.
for years and years," he told Attitude magazine, "and I just started
saying to the record company, 'Look, I really, really love what they
are doing.' I think that my record company was a little taken aback
but, genuinely, if I could make that type of music then I would. If I
could master the equipment then I would love to. Maybe I will now that
I've got my own studio set up."
More 'We the Media' Remixes08/09/2004 07:57 AM The remixing of the book is taking interesting new forms, all
permitted because it's published under a kind of Creative
Commons license permitting non-commercial use, so long as the work
is credited and is made available under the same license. Examples of
the remixes:
Lou Reed is another artist that should check out the Recombo
license. Here's a great quote from him about his most recent
recordings being remixed in this story:
"I've been getting all these great mixes sent to me out of
the U.K. for years and years," he told Attitude magazine, "and I just
started saying to the record company, 'Look, I really, really love
what they are doing.' I think that my record company was a little
taken aback but, genuinely, if I could make that type of music then I
would. If I could master the equipment then I would love
to.

David Bowie Encouraging Remixes Of His Music04/26/2004 01:09 PM While EMI and the Beatles flipped out about the whole Grey
Album mess, where a DJ remixed Beatles songs with the latest
vocals from Jay-Z, some musicians are realizing this is a good
way to get more attention. David Bowie (who was very early on in
embracing new internet technologies) is actually running a contest encouraging people to remix his songs
with vocals from other singers. His website even offers
up downloadable tools to help people out.
Porn art-remixes part deux: Safe For Work
Porn art-remixes part deux: Safe For Work05/30/2004 01:45 AM
Those
French "pornotuning" remixes aren't the first time someone with a
pinch of snark and a penchant for pr0n got jiggy with Photoshop. For
instance, this somethingawful riff from a couple of years back: "Make
Porn Work-Safe." Results included the bizarre goatse-esque mashup shown
here, which suggests a rollicking three-way between Man Ray, Terry
Richardson, and Betty Crocker. BoingBoing reader Phil points us to the
archived gallery and says, "Basically, they hacked pornopix just
enough to make them (at least theoretically) safe for work."
