Development of the Creative Commons Sampling license (or license option)

[mark / negativland <markhosler AT bellsouth.net>]

Who is your research for?? How will it be used?


As a musician, publisher, and small label owner, 
I'd be happy to talk you on the phone at some 
point, but answering all your many questions via 
e-mail would take more time than I have to type! 
Sorry!

And I am not really sure how the CC license we 
worked on relates to publishing. Good question!! 
Maybe someone else will have agood answer for you.

The truly creative people I know all live lousy 
lives, never have time to see you, don't take 
care of themselves properly, have weird tastes in 
men/women and behave badly. They don't wash and 
they eat disgusting stuff, they are mentally 
unstable and are absolutely brilliant.

"Radical shifts happen, not through the 
complacent adjustment of the conforming majority, 
but through the creative maladjustment of the 
non-conforming few."

A young girl aged six asked her mom to tell her 
what she did at the university where she went 
every day. "I am in the art department. I teach 
people to draw and paint," replied her mother. 
Astonished, the girl asked, "You mean they 
forget?"
