Art 2003-: Tube Map with Walklines

This is stark raving brilliant...trust me, I lived there.

The map of the London Underground is an icon, and with good reason (that I won't go into...trust me, it is) but because of the brilliance and simplicity with which it is drawn it has a couple problems - the biggest being that a few stations which appear far apart on the tube map are actually quite close to one another (and vice-versa). The link above is to a map which has all of those "walklines" placed into it...brilliant!

There are other brilliant things to look at on the page once you are there, so poke around.

World's Crookedest Street?

Is it possible? Is there a street that tops Lombard as the most crookedest?

thom.org has a picture of one that may just be.

Quick news flash posting:

1) BYOBW is hit 1, 4, and many more on Google.
2) people are downloading it like crazy...I may have to cut folks off part way thru the month to spare the bandwidth.
3) not one stranger has emailed me...no hate mail, no fan mail, no cease and desists, no spam...nuthin'. Seems odd. I suppose no news could be good news.
4) I have started assembling the music I will use to replace the unlicensed stuff in the current cut. Once I recut it I will be selling copies for a very nominal fee (just to help keep things rolling...like the next project).

This just in....public domain songs list...http://www.pdinfo.com/list.htm

Anyone feel like performing The First Noel, or God Rest Ye, Merry Gentlemen, or Hark, the Herald Angels Sing, or It Came Upon A Midnight Clear for use in the future legal version of BYOBW? :)

Andy sent me a link to a website called Creative Commons, http://creativecommons.org/, after posting my plea for music it seems what I asked for is already out there (as is often the case with this here newfangled web thang). A library of music that I don't have to worry about licenses and lawyers when I draw from it. Very very very cool. Here is the gist:

All sound files in the pool are released under the Creative Commons Attribution-ShareAlike license (a copyleft license similar to those used in the free and open source software communities) or placed in the public domain.

This means you are free (and encouraged) to download works, make copies, share them, include them in other works, remix and rearrange them, and even sell them. The Attribution-ShareAlike license requires only that you attribute the works to their original authors/musicians (attribution), and that any derivative works (anything you make using the sound files) be licensed under the same license (share alike).

Works placed in the public domain are free from any copyright restrictions, and you may do whatever you like with them.

Many have heard, but for those who haven't, my latest movie is done and available - B Y O B W - you can download it from here. It's 25 Megs, so be on a fast connection :)

So, speaking of movies...I need music. I can't afford to pay licensing fees for commercial music, and consequently I can't show my stuff anywhere legally, so I need original music, and this is where y'all come in. Do you know anyone who records their own music?

Some of my friends are coming thru with their own compositions, and are spreading the word far and wide. What I want to do is build up a library, as big as I can make it, of music I can use without fear of lawyers.

I am working on a contract that I can give the artists, which will include a "step deal" whereby if I ever make any money on any movie some of it will get back to the artists.

If you do know anyone, or know anyone who knows anyone, please pass this along...and have them email films@recursiveirony.com

Thanks in advance!
