explore-blog: If there ever was tragically visceral evidence of how remix culture fuels creativity and copyright hinders it, it is this: Despite – or perhaps because of – millions of views in less than a week, The David Foster Wallace Literary Trust has filed a copyright claim against the wildly popular YouTube version of the wonderful short film adaptation of Wallace’s timeless 2005 commencement address, This Is Water. (Luckily, you can still watch the film on Vimeo – but that’s beside the point.) Here is an example of a project made out of love, the existence of which harms the estate in no way, financial or otherwise, but serves the public good by way of cultural preservation and celebration of Wallace’s spirit and legacy, extending his message and allowing it to touch more lives. That the estate finds any of this harmful is gobsmacking, at once an aberration of the law and a complete failure of cultural duty. No. The more people that saw the video the better. It was important. It it important.

yabookreviewer: Sneak Peek At J.K. Rowling’s Annotated ‘Philosopher’s Stone’ Earlier this month it was announced that J.K. Rowling was placing a first edition annotated copy of Harry Potter and the Philosopher’s Stone up for auction. New photos of the book released today depict some amazing notes written by the author within her debut novel. The Guardian shared three pages from inside this extremely rare charity item. In addition to the new notes, we also see a sketch of baby Harry in his carriage sitting out front Number Four Privet Drive. Check out the images, and annotations right here on Young Adult Book Reviewer This brought tears to my eyes.

How did this get 71,000 notes?! 

Also, now that tumblr is being bought by yahoo, does this mean I will finally get paid for every note generated? And if so, can I declare that payment as fishing boat proceeds?!

Books, glorious books.

Books, glorious books.

I went to the library and now I have a nice bunch of books to read, in a variety of genres and styles. And the first two seasons of Sherlock, which I have never seen. And the first season of New Girl, which I have. These things, combined with the fact that I am watching my favourite ever movie make today okay.
