RiP: A Remix Manifesto

Brett Gaylor (director of the movie 'RiP: A Remix Manifesto'): "Imagine a world where ideas and culture, from "Happy Birthday" to Mickey Mouse, are horded under lock and key by copyright laws. Even ideas that could lead to a cure for cancer would be off-limits. Stop imagining now, because this is the world you live in. Although pop culture giants such as Walt Disney and the Rolling Stones built on the past to produce their art, the door is closing behind them."
