Lawrence Lessig - Final Free Culture Talk
Creative Commons founder and Stanford professor Lawrence Lessig is giving his final presentation on Free Culture, Copyright and the Future of Ideas at Stanford’s Memorial Auditorium on January 31st, 2008. After 10 years of enlightening audiences around the world with multi-media presentations that inspired the Free Culture movement, Professor Lessig is moving on from the copyright debate and setting his sites on corruption in Washington. Lessig’s final talk is being recorded for the upcoming feature film “Basement Tapes”.
Open Source Cinema would like to present Larry with a montage of thank-you’s from around the world by people who have been touched by his work and by Creative Commons. They’re asking you to help out by recording a short video blog on how Creative Commons has changed your life and saying the words “Thanks Larry” in your own native language.
