Remix - Making Art
And Commerce Thrive In
The Hybrid Economy
£3.99
Lawrence Lessig, the reigning authority on intellectual property in the Internet age, spotlights the newest & possibly the most harmful culture war-a war waged against our children & others who create & consume art. Copyright laws have ceased to perform their original, beneficial role: protecting artists' creations while allowing them to build on previous creative works. In fact, our system now criminalises those very actions. By embracing "read-write culture, which allows its users to create art as readily as they consume it, we can ensure that creators get the support-artistic, commercial, & ethical-that they deserve & need. Indeed, we can already see glimmers of a new hybrid economy that combines the profit motives of traditional business with the sharing economy" evident in such websites as Wikipedia & You Tube. The hybrid economy will become ever more prominent in every creative realm-from news to music-and Lessig shows how we can & should use it to benefit those who make & consume culture. Remix is an urgent, eloquent plea to end a war that harms our children & other intrepid creative users of new technologies. It also offers an inspiring vision of the post-war world where enormous opportunities await those who view art as a resource to be shared openly rather than a commodity to be hoarded. ...

As a new millennium dawns, 100-year-old Selma Bartley alone knows the secret behind a Yorkshire village's refusal to honour its war dead. One summer's day in 1913, a brush with tragedy irrevocably binds the fates of two families forever. A year later, and West Sharland sends its men off to fight, leaving blacksmith's daughter Selma Bartley to manage the family business - and her blossoming feelings for aristocrat Guy Cantrell. Their friendship tests social convention - but will also have unimaginable consequences before the War is over. When Guy is wounded in battle, his identical twin Angus - desperate for battlefield action but medically unfit - takes his place, unbeknownst to his brother. But, bitterly
