Extrait de la sélection : Manifesto for Interventionist Media - because Art is a Hammer

Manifesto Point # 2: The filmmaker’s role is to experiment and adapt documentary forms to the original idea. Break stereotypes. Push the boundaries of what documentary means.RIP: A remix manifesto (trailer) not only has the word manifesto in its title (!), it is a great example of experimenting with and adapting documentary ideas. It is a cinematic argument for the right to use other people’s material in your own creations without being penalized. Director Brett Gaylor and the great gang at Eyesteele Film, in co-production with the NFB, use really innovative tools of the digital revolution to MAKE this film. Through their process called “open source cinema” Brett invites users around the world to upload, remix and reinterpret the actual film itself on his Web site. Winner of the prestigious 2008 audience award at the largest documentary festival on earth, IDFA.

Extrait de la sélection : Tré Armstrong on dance, music and passion

So this would have to be my favourite flick of them all. I love the use of the word mash-up. It applies to so many aspects of life in general--interracial relationships, dance hybrids like Bollywood (bhungra & urban dance together), chicken and waffles. At any rate, dance is all about taking different worlds, combining them and enjoying the explosion from that partnership. I hope I get the opportunity to watch Girl Talk live one day. He creates stimulating sounds, perfect for a dancer or any artist's palette. He's got an irresistible drive and his passion gives him this attractive energy that other people want to be around. He knows how to rock a party! And as for copyright? I would have to say I'm copyleft...

    «I'm pretty sure this film is ripping off Michael Moore.» — vandecamps, 23 Fév 2013

    «I'm sorry, but Professor Lessig's argument; that if you look at "mash-ups" like an essay, using the correct quotations, credits and sources, it should be fair use, is wrong. If we look at what Girl Talk is doing as an essay, we would see a whole paper full of words other people have said, with no quotation marks, and no sources cited with the author claiming that the work is his. That is called plagiarism. That is what he is doing. I do, however think that what Girl Talk puts out is awesome, I love the sound. I think his "mash-up" sound is amazing. But the fact he sells his album on iTunes without wanting to pay royalties is not right. The mentality that he wants to use something that he did not musically create or physically record, and make money on it without paying for the rights to do so, is not fair to the artist and musicians that actually created the chords, the rhythms, the lyrics and the melodies. His art should be recognized as a very important part of today's culture, but credit should be given where credit is due.» — vandecamps, 23 Fév 2013

    «Curious, the movie is no longer available. Is it a technical issue or a copyright issue?» — b2, 29 Oct 2010

    «What an awesome movie! It makes me proud of being Brazilian (from Rio de Janeiro)! As a physicist I work in an environment of free remixing and all society should behave like it. Have you heard of LHC? It is the product of decades, centuries of free flow of ideas. I'll do my best and spread the word. Great work, guys! Keep remixing! Pirataria, sim! Liberdade digital já!» — phmota, 28 Sep 2010

    «great film... very provocative. If a little one-sided. it's not as black & white. not all musicians agree with lars ulrich of metallica. I worry that the next generation of songwriters will be left behind, because all the attention is on "remixing" existing "source material" is there no space for new source material... the new bands & artists are forgotten in all of this. U2/Aerosmith/JayZ will not crumble, but are future musicians to go the way of the dodo? » — thebhoydave, 30 Mar 2010

    «What can i say... This was amazing, it really express what we all think down deep. It's a must watch, you should really spend the 1 hour and a half, you'll realize that it's all true. Everything explained in that movie is possible if everyone stand together, it's been proved once in the software industry with the linux foundation and the open source community. Hopefully we will all come to our sense and realize where we stand in life right now. Aeon» — xaeon8@gmail.com, 5 Mar 2010
