Jerry Lobdill writes with this interesting story about a remix culture now regulated:

This is an example of the kind of art flamenco is--or was. And I speak particularly about the guitar here. The roots of flamenco are lost in the mists of time. They go back at least into the late 1700s, but probably farther. At this time there are over 40 distinct forms which are each characterized by a specific repetitive rhythmic pattern termed "compas", a specified musical mode (major, minor, or phrygian), and certain signature resolution phrases or other unique musical features.  I have played flamenco guitar for 47 years. When I was learning to play, the current versions of the forms could be traced back to a few virtuosos who came on the scene as early as 1905 or thereabouts. Every form is played as a series of sections that are distinct in melody and are sandwiched between more or less standard rhythmic sections characteristic of the form. The melodic sections are called "falsetas". The sections are played in whatever order a player chooses and players spend spare time trying to invent new falsetas or modifying old ones. Most players know the genealogy of their falsetas to some extent, but anything that is older than a couple of generations is usually of unknown origin.  Lore has it that great flamenco guitarists invent falsetas on the fly during performance. This is nonsense. But that's another story. Hardly any guitarist can read music and/or uses any kind of notation to commit falsetas to paper. In the cante (song) the verses (letras) and the melodies are generally very old though most are associated with the name of the originator.  Through the 1950s it was expected that players would play mostly traditional things with minor additional innovations. The falsetas of a particular player did not usually evolve from one recording to the next, and, indeed, players had favorite falsetas that they played for years. But as soon as recording industry moguls got involved all that changed. Nowadays they are claiming copyright on everything that is recorded, even the traditional portions that have been played since antiquity. Guitarists such as Paco de Lucia are pushed and prodded to innovate, and he has said publicly that the creation of new material is the most difficult part of what he does in this modern environment. Yet even his innovations (when he plays flamenco instead of the bastardized watered down stuff he mostly plays these days) contain traditional resolution phrases and rhythmic sections that define the forms and are ancient anonymous creations. Spanish copyright has gone crazy locking up the public domain along with the new in recent years. I have reams of manuscript transcripts of fabulous flamenco guitar music that will never be published because of the abuse and tyranny of copyright law. Like many non-Spanish flamenco guitar players, I play what I consider to be the best--just like Spaniards did before commercialization of the art. It's sad that all this will never be published for the enjoyment of the world.

Michael Tucker sent this link to a film he's making about the war in Iraq. "It includes two video clips that I think your readers will appreciate, no matter what their views on the war." Favorite quote from a soldier: "For y'all this is just a show, but we live in this movie." And I can't believe there isn't any conservative remixes out there. Really?

Ukiyo-e remix art 06/27/2004 07:30 PM
A BoingBoing art exclusive: the latest watercolor from Moira Hahn, whose illustration work has appeared in Time, the New Yorker, and elsewhere. About this remix of classic ukiyo-e art -- which depicts a backyard conflict between cats and birds -- Moira says "Kuniyoshi was an influence, the primary Edo period ukiyo-e artist who regularly depicted cats... [but] most of this composition has been changed from various Edo and Meiji sources. The original figures were human, patterns were different, and there was no owl." [Ed. note: Dude, is that Waldo from Hatebeak on the far left?]

Slam poetry for CC remix

Slam poetry for CC remix 07/23/2004 04:46 AM
Wayne Mercier is a Vancouver slam poet who has just released his first book of poetry published, and along with it, a CD of him reading his work. He's made the entire audio of the CD available for downloand and remix under a Creative Commons license.

I'm really excited about this, not just because it's a way of getting my stuff out into the world, but because - to my knowledge - this is the first time this has been done in Canadian poetry. Coach House Press releases electronic editions of their author's work but retains copyright. Also the fact that this is audio, and thus open to extensive remixing and incorporation into larger, multimedia projects, is very cool.

Phillip Torrone @ Make:

Make your own Nine Inch Nails

MacMinute has a story about Trent Reznor of Nine Inch Nails making the band's new single, "The Hand That Feeds" available to download for Mac users with GarageBand to mix and mash up (an actual multi-track audio session). "For quite some time I've been interested in the idea of allowing you the ability to tinker around with my tracks -- to create remixes, experiment, embellish or destroy what's there," Reznor says. Here's a screenshot of it on my Mac (View image) and here's where to get it (70MB file). Here are a couple of the first remixes!

How excellent. This is almost like open source music. It's one thing to say, "hey it's OK to sample this." It's taking it to a totally different level to publish it as a Garage Band project. Now if only they would put some kind of Creative Commons license on it, it would be perfect.
