Rebel archivist Rick Prelinger speaks on initiatives to break through the New Enclosure of intellectulal-property by private corporations. , . he touches on Creative Commons, Internet Archive, and his and Brewster Kahle's suit against Ashcroft's restrictive copylaw. Annalee Newitz of the Electronic Frontier Foundation will also talk about ways that copyright-protection is being hardwired into new digital devices. Plus plenty of smart and sassy movie clips, including the world premiere of Scott Miller's hilarious 'Uso Justo' ("Fair Use") and Greg Hittelman's "Willful Infringement", with Public Enemy, Lawrence l
Lessig, and Carrie McLaren of "Stay Free" magazine. $5 (part of proceeds go to Prelinger's court fight).
