I’ve been documenting some art and tech related events. This has been somewhat unstructured: See what happens and put it together. I do generally know what event is about, type of people will be there and such.
Now I’d like to take a more directed approach selecting a particular question and interview people on different and sometimes opposing aspects of it: Discourse vlogs. One of the dictionary definitions of discourse is:
A formal, lengthy discussion of a subject, either written or spoken.
In this case it’s also visual.
Today, on the Videoblogging Flash Meeting, Bill Streeter replied to a talk on sharing on the internet is “stealing” that it wasn’t actually stealing, but copyright infringement. That stealing is of a singular, physical item, not a infinitely reproducible digital intellectual property in the form of music, video, etc. This intrigued me so I thought I’d take that up for a vlog discourse.
First I’m going to read some articles off Lawrence Lessig’s site:
And then I wanted to look for writing with different and opposing points of views.
My questions to the reader is:
- Are there any other articles and/or books by Lessig I should read?
- Which authors with other and opposing views should I consume?
- I’m going to try to interview Lawrence Lessig. Who else would be good to interview?
Please put any input in the comments area.
Thank you.
