John Buckman, who runs Creative Commons’ favourite “online music label” magnatune, now has a blog. I liked the transcription of a cute exchange between Buckman and a major label exec, who apparently doesn’t like being called evil.

Speaking of CC, Seb’s Open Research points us to the winning video in the Creative Commons Moving Image Contest: Building on the Past (.mov), created by Justin Cone. NIce use of old footage, still images, text and sound, and explains the creative commons licensing system very clearly. I especially agree with Seb that the concluding bit is good:

Creativity always builds on the past and you’re building the past right now.
Share now.
Shape tomorrow.

Couldn’t be clearer, and couldn’t be more right.
