RIP: a remix manifesto There HAS to be a middle ground between "NO NO NO" and fair use/Public Domain/remix. Has to be.

From an Australian site:

AND National Film Board of Canada has it posted in 'chapters'

Monsanto's claim to "own" the means of food production. Don't believe me? read the article, watch the vid, listen for the similarities. then order some seeds from Seed Savers, plant SOMETHING, ANYTHING, and draw, write, dance in public, share yourself. Who you are, what you know, how you experience life is unique, it's necessary, it's transformative just as soon as you use that breath you just took to fuel a thought, share an idea, express a feeling- EVEN IN PRIVATE.
