Last Word on the Subject

Put this together while home sick yesterday.



Just a way of showing the disjunct between Astley's comments about "Barack Roll" and YouTube/Sony's response.

I'm not too fussed really. The McCain getting Barackroll'd video is the stronger of the two and is still up. In any case, rickrollin' has more or less had its day.

I've got an idea for a new video in the same style. Might try to put it together to mark the first 100 days of the administration.

Thanks to everyone who's been in touch.

"He who receives an idea from me, receives instruction himself without lessening mine; as he who lights his taper at mine, receives light without darkening me. That ideas should freely spread from one to another over the globe, for the moral and mutual instruction of man, and improvement of his condition, seems to have been peculiarly and benevolently designed by nature, when she made them, like fire, expansible over all space, without lessening their density in any point, and like the air in which we breathe, move, and have our physical being, incapable of confinement or exclusive appropriation. Inventions then cannot, in nature, be a subject of property. Society may give an exclusive right to the profits arising from them, as an encouragement to men to pursue ideas which may produce utility, but this may or may not be done, according to the will and convenience of the society, without claim or complaint from anybody." -- Thomas Jefferson

Fight the power, man. You have an extremely good argument that your derivative work is original enough to be justified (at least pertaining to the McCain gets RickRoll'd video).

Also, whichever one of you did the chroma keying: fantastic job!

I have experienced a desire for this area of interest for some time now. We have been hiding and following the comments avidly so just wanted to point out my thanks for providing me with quite a few superior reading material. I anticipate more, and having a more proactive part in the conversations here, whilst understanding as well!!
