Ostinato/Riff/Vamp - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia - 1 views

en.wikipedia.org/Ostinato

shared by Giedre Stankeviciute on 04 Oct 12 - Cached
  • ostinato (derived from Italian: "stubborn", compare English: 'obstinate') is a motif or phrase, which is persistently repeated in the same musical voice, usually at the same pitch. The best known ostinato based piece may be Ravel's Boléro.
  • The term 'riff driven' is used to describe a piece of music that relies on a repeated instrumental riff as the basis of its most prominent melody, cadence, or (in some cases) leitmotif.
  • vamp is a repeating musical figure, section,[28] or accompaniment used in jazz, gospel, soul, and musical theater.

    I was just reading about sampling in general and came across 3 new terms! (Well, then went and listened to Bolero again because of its OSTINATO!) :)

    Crazy stories about Congressman being bought in order to get jobs after their terms. People who buy them are basically in control of the Congressman.

    When catching up on some SP episodes this weekend I cam across this: an episode where kyle gets kidnapped by apple, because he did not read the iTunes contract before clicking agree. this brought me back to our discussion about Facebook and their terms and agreement.

    The term boilerplate describes a type of textual remix, and, if you look at its origins, the word itself is its own remix.

Barack Obama "Hope" poster - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia - 1 views

  • the poster was based on an Associated Press photograph by freelance photographer Mannie Garcia.
  • Fairey is being represented by Anthony Falzone, executive director of the Fair Use Project at Stanford University. Falzone is quoted in the press release, "We believe fair use protects Shepard's right to do what he did here."[
  • Photographer Mannie Garcia contended that he retained copyright to the photo according to his AP contract. He said that he was "so proud of the photograph and that Fairey did what he did artistically with it, and the effect it’s had," but that he did not "condone people taking things, just because they can, off the Internet."
  • ...3 more annotations...
  • The AP and Shepard Fairey settled out of court in January 2011.
  • AP and Fairey "agreed to work together going forward with the Hope image and share the rights to make the posters and merchandise bearing the Hope image and to collaborate on a series of images that Fairey will create based on AP photographs.
  • In a separate criminal action Federal prosecutors have requested prison time and a fine of $3.2 million for Fairey with the government sentencing request stating that “A sentence without any term of imprisonment sends a terrible message to those who might commit the same sort of criminal conduct. Encouraging parties to game the civil litigation system…creates terrible incentives and subverts the truth-finding function of civil litigation.”

    After I stumbled upon the iconic Obama "Hope" poster, I remembered that back in 2009, artist Shepard Fairey was being sued by the owner of the original photograph (AP). Back then I was not very interested in copyright issues, so I never checked what happened with this case. It's interesting and kind of fair that AP and Shepard settled on working together, sharing the rights, and collaborating on other images+photographs. Even though Shepard transformed a "stolen" photograph, his "theft" actually put the original photo on the map. I consider it to be a fair solution for a fair use case.
