One thing I'd highlighter in to the margins is that copyright licences are neither necessary nor sufficient to create an alternative economic system or to make a political statement other than that culture should be free.

Re: [NetBehaviour] My Lawyer is an Artist: Free Culture Licenses as Art Manifestos.
How can we think about free software or free culture living under: ICANN dictatorship ?Microprocessors dictatorship ? For the Empire Version 2.0 (facebook-google-twitter) is it interesting to have a license like creative commons where they can track without legal problems ? How about IPV6 and the limits of the net ? Can we talk about Culture Flat Rate ? How is it going ? Free Culture or freedom to track ? Free software but microprocessors dictatorship ? Digital Culture but living unde the process of digitalization of different culture ? (with a lot s - i mean plural) How about the colonization of real time by USA with (google-facebook-twitter) ?

Creative Commons is a NGO financed by Google (we are not evil :-))) and HP , invented and promoted by a Prof of Law from Havard, Larry Lessig. The same University that costs 25.000 per semester for a student , in Europe or in any other country of the world this will pay at least one year of studies and in same cases all the masters course. I am not against USA or Havard, i find for example Howard Gardner a great professor. Some goverments are adopting this license without even think about, the interests behind, who benefit from that ? Why the British goverment didnt accepted ? Free Software, Free Culture - this terms should be rethinked it is like Digital Culture - Are you free ? What is freedom ? Are we living under the digitalization of cultures instead of digital culture ?

Thanks for the nice feedback Rob! Rob Myers said : Copyleft: This work is free, you can distribute and modify it under the terms of the Free Art License. http://artlibre.org/licence/lal/en I'm overdue on blogging about this, but I'm not convinced that the LAL is better for art than CC-BY-SA *unless* one is trying to keep art separate from the rest of society. Which is a defensible position but I'm from a more Pop tradition. ;-) I'd like to read/write more about that. I think it's an important discussion to have. My initial intention while writing about licenses as art manifestos was precisely to try to articulate how licenses can provide imaginary landscapes to build art upon. In that sense while the FAL/LAL and the CC-BY-SA have been flirting around technical compatibility for years already, their imaginary landscape, or more simply the historical context in which they are born, are quite different. I am not sure that the resulting art separation is deliberate though, I feel it's more like a by-product. a. -- http://su.kuri.mu ___ NetBehaviour mailing list NetBehaviour@netbehaviour.org http://www.netbehaviour.org/mailman/listinfo/netbehaviour
[NetBehaviour] The 1% are the very best destroyers of wealth the world has ever seen
An interesting article on the psychopathology of wealth in our present economy. In a study published by the journal Psychology, Crime and Law, Belinda Board and Katarina Fritzon tested 39 senior managers and chief executives from leading British businesses. They compared the results to the same tests on patients at Broadmoor special hospital, where people who have been convicted of serious crimes are incarcerated. On certain indicators of psychopathy, the bosses's scores either matched or exceeded those of the patients. In fact, on these criteria, they beat even the subset of patients who had been diagnosed with psychopathic personality disorders. http://www.guardian.co.uk/commentisfree/2011/nov/07/one-per-cent-wealth-destroyers -Joel___ NetBehaviour mailing list NetBehaviour@netbehaviour.org http://www.netbehaviour.org/mailman/listinfo/netbehaviour
