Episode 5 \u2013 The Instrument of the Law<\/p>\n
This episode looks at how innovative new ways of making and distributing music are coming into conflict with our legal system. Some argue that copyright and patent laws, created to encourage innovation, are no longer in touch with how artists remix and reinterpret our cultural landscape.<\/p>\n
Part 1 \u2013 Piracy<\/p>\n
We learn about copyright law, the \u2018copy left\u2019 movement and new licensing schemes like Creative Commons. Eoin O\u2019Dell corrects some common copyright misapprehensions, Ed Devane and Simon Kenny discuss their experiences having their music pirated. Niamh Houston (Chipzel) discusses how small Chiptune artists are challenged by ubiquitous piracy and major label plagiarism alike.<\/p>\n
Part 2 \u2013 Sampling<\/p>\n
Ewan Hennelly and Meljoann talk about the culture of sharing. MarQu and Meljoann describe about how ready access to the internet enabled them to learn techniques and exposed them to niche scenes that would have been unavailable historically; and how our always on, connected society is reshaping music. MarQu VR discusses the endemic and transformative use of samples in VJing and parody.<\/p>\n
Part 3 \u2013 Illegal Art<\/p>\n
Karakara (Kieran Dold) and Siam Collective (John Leech) discuss the idea of remixing as a crime and illegal art as a wilfully provocative act.<\/p>\n
