Jura-professoren Lawrence Lessig er idemanden bag Creative Commons og en af Remix-kulturens førende tænkere. Forleden dag var han på besøg hos den fantastiske satiriker Stephen Colbert. Det blev en meget fin diskussion – der selvfølgelig også har inviteret til nye remix:
Her er det oprindelige indslag fra The Colbert Report:
Uddrag:
SC: Let’s get to the nut of this. What’s the difference between
“remixing” and theft? If I walk out of Brooks Brothers with a handful
of ties, I can’t just say I was remixing the patterns!
LL: The difference is when you’re remixing you’re creating something new.
SC: OK, so I could take this book right here and just change “Remix”
to “MeMix” and change it to “Stephen Colbert”, and add some value and —
I do a pretty good Snoopy. OK, my book, my book. You cool with that?
LL: OK, put this on Amazon you think you’ll get more or less?
SC: Much more.
LL: Bravo!
SC: Well, I’m benefitting from it so that’s OK. But nobody should take my work and do anything with it that is not approved.
Og her er et eksempel på de mange remixes, der selvfølgelig allerede er kommet online:
