Jenkins Vs Lessig (Remixed)

This short clip was made as an assignment for Web Media 207, a unit that I am currently studying at Curtin University, Australia.

The purpose of the creation is to to convey the experience of modern convergence culture and illustrate how technology and digitization have begun to democratize the method, technique and attitude of creating art. Ideally, the clip will demonstrate that almost anybody with a computer, reasonably priced software and a little imagination can create digital artwork that previously would only have been created by professionals. The clip builds upon the ideas of Lawrence Lessig and Henry Jenkins, two scholars that have heavily influenced my view of media in the future.

I have created original music by using free-use samples and software instruments, I then placed audio excerpts of Jenkins and Lessig that emphasize their ideas on convergence culture and digital media. The visual aspect is made up of images and video that are free to use under various creative commons licenses.
