Ben Hanbury has created Recycled TV, a wicked video installation that remarks on ever changing copyright laws and Creative Commons.
‘The concept behind this piece then is to take two groups of video clips, one group which is licenced under the Creative Commons and one group which is copyrighted but is old enough that it would be in the public domain by now if the terms of copyright had not been extended so many times. The videos will then be broken down into very short clips (milliseconds) which will then be used to form beats in various audio tracks. The user will then be able to use a retro tv interface to mix between tracks thereby forming a new creative product out of old ones, however the user will also have to make choices of balance and fair use between public domain and copyrighted material’

Hey, I really love old retro stuff and vintage furniture is one of my favorites. The old stuff was made well and lasts, not like the new cheap stuff.
