When it comes to remix culture, copyfight and crowd-sourcing, Brett Gaylor walks the walk. - Wired

a knockout. Rip is a dazzling frontal assault on how corporate culture is using copyright law to muzzle freedom of expression. - Macleans Magazine

The sexiest film about copyright infringement Ive ever seen. CBC

An audience favorite at film festivals worldwide, this movie-as-mash-up shatters the wall between users and producers, as web activist and filmmaker Brett Gaylor invites audiences to remix his raw footage (at opensourcecinema.org), allowing them to become part of the film itself. An Official Selection at SXSW 2009 and the Audience Choice selection at Amsterdams International Doc Festival and the Whistler Film Fest, RiP! A REMIX MANIFESTO makes its DVD debut on June 30.

Featuring:
- Gregg Gillis (Girl Talk), a mash-up musician topping the charts with his sample-based songs
- Lawrence Lessig, founder of Creative Commons and Stanfords Center for Internet and Society
- Cory Doctorow, technology activist and co-editor of the popular blog Boing Boing
- Marybeth Peters, U.S. Register of Copyrights
- The Mouse Liberation Front

A participatory media experiment, from day one, Brett shares his raw footage at opensourcecinema.org, for anyone to remix. This movie-as-mash-up method allows these remixes to become an integral part of the film. With RiP: A remix manifesto, Gaylor and Girl Talk sound an urgent alarm and draw the lines of battle.
