DESCRIPTION:The San Francisco Film Society's acclaimed SF360 Film+Club returns with a 
 special edition, double-barreled mash-up program featuring the documentary 
 RiP: A Remix Manifesto directed by Web activist and filmmaker Brett Gaylor 
 and a live set by mash-up VJ legends Eclectic Method.\n\nRiP explores 
 issues of copyright in the information age, mashing up the media landscape 
 of the 20th century and shattering the wall between users and producers. 
 The film’s central protagonist is Girl Talk, a mash-up musician topping 
 the charts with his sample-based songs. But is Girl Talk a paragon of 
 people power or the pied piper of piracy? Creative Commons founder Lawrence 
 Lessig, Brazil’s former Minister of Culture Gilberto Gil and pop culture 
 critic Cory Doctorow also add their perspectives to the mix. Creating a 
 participatory media experiment from day one, Gaylor shares his raw footage 
 at opensourcecinema.org for anyone to remix. This movie-as-mash-up method 
 allows these remixes to become an integral part of the film. With RiP, 
 Gaylor and Girl Talk invite an impassioned dialogue about current 
 copyright, fair use and intellectual property laws and make a deeply 
 provocative case for the ideas of Free Culture. Which side of the ideas war 
 will the viewer line up on?\n\nRiP will be preceded by a short video 
 produced by Creative Commons that explains their aims, methods of work and 
 services for the promotion of creative sharing and ease of copyright 
 use.\n\nAfter the screening, Adrian and Mysterious D from Bootie SF will 
 open the live program with a mash-up DJ set and then Eclectic Method will 
 present a live set of video mash-ups that are sure to boggle the mind and 
 move the booty. \n
