Joe Gratz Enjoys Copyright Infringement
Joe Gratz went to a live electronica show that likely featured copyright infringement after copyright infringement (Meat Beat Manifesto). Apparently he enjoyed the blatant thievery:
And it all had to be illegal. Thousands upon thousands of individual infringements — each sample from a movie or TV show, each uncleared photograph and film clip, without which the music would have fallen flat and the visuals would have disappeared.
The evening strengthened my belief that fair use should privilege this sort of transformative art, even though I don’t think it’s privileged under current law.
