In prepping for class this week, I’ve been watching this documentary:

Assembled by Craig Baldwin in the wake of the U2/Casey Kasem/Negativeland lawsuit, the film presents a range of perspectives on issues surrounding what might be most neutrally referred to as “recombinant” art. While the UO Library does not have this on DVD, I own it and will gladly loan it to anyone interested in watching the whole thing (we’ll likely view some snippets in class during Module 3).
