Submitted by New Media Rights on Mon, 03/03/2008 - 21:33

Lawrence Lessig discusses remix culture and how the law strangles creativity at TED(Technology, Entertainment, Design): Ideas worth spreading in Monterey California. The video has some wonderful remixed videos including a video of Jesus set to I will survive and a music video created from remixed footage of President George Bush and then Prime Minister Tony Blair.
