Remix the Remixer

Copyfight Crusader Larry Lessig has just released his new book under a Creative Commons license and, to celebrate, there’s a competition to remix his works under way. From boingboing.net:

Here’s how the competition works: Find any video, interview, or written work of Lessig’s, mash it up with another piece of Lessig’s work and create something new. It can be a video (3 min max), photo or text. Just remix any of Lawrence Lessig’s existing work and create something that is new, unique and creative.

I’m always one for remixes/creative commons so don’t be afraid to get your hands dirty and make something fantastic.

Also, I’ve been following Lessig on Twitter lately and it’s fascinating the mix of the mundane and the world-changing that comes through. Definitely worth checking out.

Here’s a link to the BoingBoing article and here’s one for the competition’s Facebook page.
