Great video on copyright policy and remix culture.
“In a world of digital network media, copyright policy isn’t just about how to incentivise the product ion of a certain type of artistic commodity. It’s about what level of control we are going to permit to be exercised over our social realities. Social realities that are now inevitably permeated by pop culture. I think it is important that we keep these two different types of public goods in mind. If we are only focused on how to maximize the supply of one, I think we risk suppressing this different and richer and even is some ways maybe even more important one.” – Julian Sanchez on remix culture
