This film is about copyrights and remixing music and how music companies own the rights to songs. An artist, Girl Talk, uses hundreds of notes from artists and makes "mash ups". According to the maker of this film they build ideas: Culture
always builds on the past;The
Past always tries to control the Future; Our
Future is becoming less free; To build free
societies you must limit the control of the past. They talk about intellectual property. They show artists like Metallica that do not want people to remix their songs and the artist(s) not get money out of it. I felt that before watching this film, people should not remix songs or download music, but after it I can see the creative expression that Girl Talk creates from just notes/seconds of songs.
