Michael Wesch has an amazing video called An Anthropological Introduction to YouTube. Though it’s well worth watching the full hour, I wanted to highlight a particular moment which really stood out for me. The overlay of the video, Us (which is already a remix of Regina Spektor and popular films), with Wesch’s commentary and part of a speech by Lawrence Lessig raises the hair on my free culture arms.
