RIP!: A Remix Manifesto
“In RiP: A remix manifesto, Web activist and filmmaker Brett Gaylor explores issues of copyright in the information age, mashing up the media landscape of the 20th century and shattering the wall between users and producers.”-IMDB
This is the documentary to watch if you into remixing and mashup culture. It’s an eye-opening contribution to the ongoing debate about copyright, fair use, sampling and remixing. You will also be introduced to the most popular mashup-artist on the planet,Girl Talk, who is more than willing to share his interesting views on the mashup culture. Brett Gaylor even encourage the viewers to participate in the movie by remixing different parts of it. I wanted to be a part of this project so I made my (tiny) contribution which could be seen in the last version of the movie.
