Darknet – Open source editing

Posted by Jerry on June 26th, 2005 — Posted in New media

Darknet by JD Lasica is a remarkable publishing experiment in open source editing – put together with public comments from a wiki, the excerpts from the book show this to be a book worth buying and having on the shelves of everyone interested in the growing divide between old media ways of thinking and new medai ways of thinking. The book raises fascinating isues about the nature of copyright in the digital age, and the question of when does personal creativity overstep the boundaries into piracy.

In short, JD Lasica has put the clutrain manifesto into practice to great effect…

Cheers
Jerry
