I've been a big fan of Negativland for years so I was pleased to see
an interview with one of the members of Negativland Mark Holser at
Minnesota Stories
(http://www.mnstories.com/archives/2006/05/negativlands_ma.html).
Watch it if you can, because Mark has an interesting take on CC and
Copyright. Negativland contributed to the CC project but they have
some reservations to the concept at the same time. It's a great
interview if you are interested in this topic. And while you're at
it check out some Negativland music/audio art.

Sorry if this was mentioned in this thread already. I haven't been
following it all that closely.
