The ecstasy of influence: A plagiarism, By Jonathan Lethem (Harper's Magazine) - 80 views

  • courts were asked whether the photographer, amateur or professional, required permission before he could capture and print an image. Was the photographer stealing from the person or building whose photograph he shot, pirating something of private and certifiable value? Those early decisions went in favor of the pirates.
  • Thomas Jefferson, for one, considered copyright a necessary evil: he favored providing just enough incentive to create, nothing more, and thereafter allowing ideas to flow freely, as nature intended.
  • In the contemporary world, though, the act of “copying” is in no meaningful sense equivalent to an infringement—we make a copy every time we accept an emailed text, or send or forward one—and is impossible anymore to regulate or even describe.

  • WikiLeaks fascine la presse, qui voit en lui une partie de son avenir.
  • Une équipe mystérieuse
  • Menacé par les services secrets américains et par tous les acteurs qu'il bouscule, WikiLeaks se protège. Pas de bureau ou d'adresse physique : seule une boîte postale à l'université de Melbourne, ainsi que des adresses e-mail anonymisées permettent aux informateurs de contacter l'équipe.
  • L'infrastructure technique, parfois en peine par manque de financement, est basée en Suède, chez un hébergeur lié au très controversé The Pirate Bay. D'autres serveurs sont répartis dans le monde entier,
  • le budget annuel de 600.000 dollars n'en est pas pour autant bouclé.
  • Le porte-parole, Julian Assange, a toutefois mis en place un comité éditorial restreint, dont neuf noms sont dévoilés. Parmi eux, Wang Dan, l'un des 21 étudiants "les plus recherchés" par la Chine après les manifestations de Tiananmen en 1989, le Britannique Ben Laurie, génie mondialement reconnu de la cryptographie, ou encore le Brésilien Chico Whitaker, cofondateur du Forum social mondial.
  • WikiLeaks a travaillé avec des élus islandais sur l'Icelandic Modern Media Initiative (IMMI)
  • Son objectif dans la vie ? "Provoquer ou orienter des réformes politiques", en révélant des informations jusque-là cachées aux citoyens. Un peu comme ce qu'avait fait son modèle, Daniel Ellsberg, en 1971 : cet ancien analyste de la RAND Corporation (un très influent think tank américain) avait alors transmis à la presse les "Pentagon papers"

Remix Culture : Center for Social Innovation (CSI) - 12 views

  • there’s a war raging over what some now are calling a new art form in the emerging Web 2.0 culture—remix
  • remix is collage, a recombination of existing, reference images or music and video clips from popular digital culture, elements of which are mashed up into something new.
    • dabennett7
       
      Does this sound familiar? Common core and even the SBAC assessment are rooted in remix.
  • as long as the remix is significantly altered from the original—should remix be permitted by law

      If digital literacy includes remixing, then the skills of citation and attribution are more important than ever.
  • failing to legally protect remixes as original forms of art and expression “will make pirates of our children...We cannot kill this form of expression;
  • Johnson, author of The Invention of Air, a new book about the history of information flows in American and British society, said remix has “deep roots in the Age of Enlightenment and among America’s Founding Fathers.”

      Remix is not new...  but it is easier and more accessible than ever.  A smartphone alone is a remix machine capable of remixing text, audio, video, images and more.  Then with a click you can publish your remix to the world from anywhere!
  • Where do we think innovation and creativity come from
  • Fairey rounded out the talk, citing remix as one of the early 21st century’s most popular forms of free political expression.
  • Remix is all about making references; references are how you establish a point of view in popular culture, and they are crucial to my work as an artist.”
    • dabennett7
       
      This is what we as educators are all about... We challenge students to make connections, identify themes, clarify or argue a point of view.  We push them to remix everyday. Are we challenging them to respect the ideas they build their learning upon?
