new Hunter S. Thompson Documentary

petunia — Wed, 23 Jan 2008 22:35:01 GMT

Dear Friends,
This is a VERY funny and poignant film director Blue Kraning made about Hunter S. Thompson. You can follow this link to where the trailer is posted up on Tribe:

http://people.tribe.net/ef16dbc2-...e40916ff6d

or you can follow the other links to his website www.gonzopatriots.com to see the trailer and buy the film.

I went ahead and copied the text from the tribe page below so you get a better idea of the work.

Please support the spirit of independence in which this film was made AND BUY THIS FILM !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Much Love To All,
Lisa Ferguson (aka Petunia Maple Cake)

New Hunter S. Thompson Documentary
This is the trailer for the fun-loving but poignant film that is a tribute to Gonzo journalist, Hunter S. Thompson, and a document of how his legacy continues to live on in the hearts and minds of his fans. Blasted!!! follows the many "Gonzo Patriots" across America that volunteered their personally owned artillery to fulfill the good doctor's last wish to have his ashes fired from a cannon. Before Johnny Depp became involved with the ceremony, and paid over 2 million dollars for a professional fireworks company to blast his friend's ashes from a 200 foot tall 'Gonzo fist,' an essay contest was held by the Aspen Daily News (at the request of Hunter's family) to see who would be available to provide the service of firing his ashes. Over 50 private cannon owners applied and though these letters were published in Harper's magazine, these brave men and women, who had come forward to fulfill the dying wish of their hero...were eventually forgotten.

DVD's for this film can be purchased at www.gonzopatriots.com

Blue Kraning, Los Angeles based documentary director and Emmy Award winning writer, has just released the DVD of his film, Blasted, The Gonzo Patriots of Hunter S. Thompson, which recently premiered at the Starz Denver International Film Festival and the Rotterdam International Film Festival.

Three years in the making, this film is a tribute to a great journalist and renowned physician. Kraning says the film, “is intended for any fan of Hunter S. Thompson or just anyone who likes to see large stuffed animals blown to bits by a homemade Bowling Ball Cannon fired by a man in a purple polyester suit, or see transgender Civil War re-enactors blast their aptly named mountain howitzer...’Lucrecia,’ while reciting Hunter’s wisdom. I made this film entirely as a one-man-band, in the tradition of Gonzo individuality and artistic freedom, so I will be distributing the film entirely by myself by selling the film off my website at www.gonzopatriots.com”

"Hunter S. Thompson embodied the American ideals of life, liberty and the pursuit of happiness. Blue Kraning's Blasted!!! is a twisted, anarchic, fun, and funny tribute to Hunter, those ideals, and Americans who don't merely mouth the Declaration of Independence, but live it." - Michael Simmons, The Huffington Post

“These are not the famous actors, politicians or even journalists. These are Hunter's readers who are “his people” in the purest sense, an army of thoughtful citizens who are inspired by Hunter's work and who do a fine job of carrying on his legacy.” –Anita Thompson, wife of the late author, Hunter S. Thompson

Multimedia, CC and Second Life

evonne — Mon, 22 May 2006 18:04:42 GMT

I run a nonprofit multimedia studio and we have produced our first comic book that blends content from Second Life with real world content for kids. http://amoration.fotki.com/campdarfurcomix/?cmd=slideShowFlash

Camp Darfur Comix was designed to bridge the awareness gap on issues of genocide, displacement and current events in the Sudan. I would love your feedback! We produce quite a bit of CC content and are experimenting with CC distribution now. I also attend Free Culture events on Joi Ito's island in Second Life; look for In Kenzo if you find yourself inworld. There are many cc:released media items coming available now; www.archive.org is a great place to look for A/V materials.

Myspace and copyright/licensing

RichBatsford — Tue, 09 May 2006 15:21:38 GMT

Hi everyone

I recently made available demo versions of some of my music via myspace.

Can anyone tell me, should I have done something about licensing/copyright by now, and if so, any suggestions?

I'm a little familiar with the creative commons concept, but not certain how to apply it

thank you

creative commons symposium - Ars Electronica ´04

Commons & Communities - Social Life in the Digital Age

The Allmende (English: commons) is the property of all; it is a tract of land that belongs to the village community as a whole and upon which any villager´s livestock may graze. Every community member has an equal right to use it. With the rediscovery of the Internet as a social space, attention has increasingly turned to information networks that are freely accessible to all: the "digital commons"
This digital Allmende is a place of social innovation, a collective, realtime R&D lab for digital goods and services and new forms of human sociability.

Howard Rheingold and other participiants will talk about. at Sept./7. in the Brucknerhaus/Linz (A)

check the tribe: arselectronica.tribe.net for more details.

flickr & cc

Ryan — Mon, 15 Mar 2004 04:39:43 GMT

For those of you curious about social software + open licensing. The flickr.com system has plans to support CC licensing directly of user's photoblog content.

http://www.flickr.com
http://www.flickr.com/groups_topic.gne?id=875

I believe this feature has a status of "in the works". But still should be interesting.

also there's a tribe for flickr/tribe folks:

condour — Wed, 08 Oct 2003 00:49:17 GMT

If you haven't already, www.magnatune.com is offering quite a bit of music under the Creative Commons license. As seen on Slashdot, Fark, and Metafilter! Some of it's good too. Also, BoingBoing has just released a similar story, an artist releasing his music on sliding scale and delivering proceeds to RIAA victims. (Oh and, hi everybody, this is my first post.)

> > > > Synopsis: The 12hr-ISBN-JPEG Project began December 30, 1994. A
`round-the-clock posting of sequenced hypermodern imagery from Brad Brace.
The hypermodern minimizes the familiar, the known, the recognizable; it
suspends identity, relations and history. This discourse, far from
determining the locus in which it speaks, is avoiding the ground on which
it could find support. It is trying to operate a decentering that leaves
no privilege to any center.

The 12-hour ISBN JPEG Project
-----------------------------
began December 30, 1994

Pointless Hypermodern Imagery... posted/mailed every 12 hours... a
spectral, trajective alignment for the 00`s! A continuum of minimalist
masks in the face of catastrophe; conjuring up transformative metaphors
for the everyday... A poetic reversibility of exclusive events...

A post-rhetorical, continuous, apparently random sequence of
imagery... genuine gritty, greyscale... corruptable, compact,
collectable and compelling convergence. The voluptuousness of the grey
imminence: the art of making the other disappear. Continual visual impact;
an optical drumming, sculpted in duration, on the endless present of the
Net.

An extension of the printed ISBN-Book (0-9690745) series... critically
unassimilable... imagery is gradually acquired, selected and re-sequenced
over time... ineluctable, vertiginous connections. The 12hr dialtone...

[ see http://www.eskimo.com/~bbrace/netcom/books.txt ]

KEYWORDS: >> Disconnected, disjunctive, distended, de-centered,
de-composed, ambiguous, augmented, ambilavent, homogeneous, reckless...
>> Multi-faceted, oblique, obsessive, obscure, obdurate...
>> Promulgated, personal, permeable, prolonged, polymorphous, provocative,
poetic, plural, perverse, potent, prophetic, pathological, pointless...
>> Emergent, evolving, eccentric, eclectic, egregious, exciting,
entertaining, evasive, entropic, erotic, entrancing, enduring,
expansive...

~ This interminable, relentless sequence of imagery began in earnest on
December 30, 1994. The basic structure of the project has been over
twenty-four years in the making. While the specific sequence of
photographs has been presently orchestrated for more than 12 years` worth
of 12-hour postings, I will undoubtedly be tempted to tweak the ongoing
publication with additional new interjected imagery. Each 12-hour posting
is like the turning of a page; providing ample time for reflection,
interruption, and assimilation.

~ The sites listed above also contain information on other cultural
projects and sources.

~ A very low-volume, moderated mailing list for announcements and
occasional commentary related to this project has been established at
topica.com /subscribe 12hr-isbn-jpeg

This project has not received government art-subsidies. Some opportunities
still exist for financially assisting the publication of editions of large
(33x46") prints; perhaps (Iris giclees) inkjet duotones or extended-black
quadtones. Other supporters receive rare copies of the first three
web-offset printed ISBN-Books. Contributions and requests for
12hr-email-subscriptions, can also be made at
http://bbrace.laughingsquid.net/buy-into.html, or by mailed cheque/check:
$50/mo $500/yr. Institutions must pay for any images retained longer than 12 hours.
