Description:
The feature documentary RiP! A Remix Manifesto explores the complexities of intellectual property in the era of peer-to-peer file sharing. Web activist and filmmaker Brett Gaylor interviews key figures in the debate, including the film's central protagonist, Gregg Gillis, the Pittsburgh biomedical engineer who moonlights as Girl Talk, a mash-up artist rearranging the pop charts' DNA with his incongruous, entirely sample-based songs. But is Girl Talk a paragon of people power or the Pied Piper of piracy? Rip shatters the wall between users and producers, and challenges the thresholds of "fair use."
