Thanks to Patrick (once again), I scored a ticket to the premiere of Brett Gaylor‘s new film: RiP: A remix manifesto.
I learned about the film on Véro’s blog a few weeks ago and really wanted to see it. Lately I’ve been thinking more and more about things open, creative commons, and remix (read/write) culture. So my Friday evening is off to a great start. Will let you know how it goes.
