Indie media mavericks Michael W. Dean and Joseph Matheny interview each other. (Part one of two. Part two will be up on Greylodge in two weeks.)
Michael
W. Dean and Joseph Matheny chat on the phone and there's no way these two talkers
could interview one or the other. So they rap together, in concentric hypertextual
parenthetical way, TCP over IP, about how to make money by giving away art, where
the Internet is headed, changing views on changing protection of intellectual
"property", Joseph Campbell, suing Disney for intellectual property
violation, how to self-publish your brilliant books, Tom Jennings, why control
of your art is more important than lots of money, how to assemble your own vigilant
army of the damned, The Pirate Bay, Cease-and-Desist letters, the Church of the
Subgenius, BoingBoing, the WELL, Creative Commons, sex, cats, art and an incredible
amount more of nifty stuff.
Part
two will cover the coming collapse of the infrastructure of the world, why Catholics
are killing the world with overpopulation, and why both of these guys just wanna
do the judo master thing and step out of the world's way, while still running
it all from their rural bunkers.
