I caught this article a few days ago, and absolutely loved it. Not only for the content, but also for the blending of text, image and audio.
Byrne’s interview with Thom Yorke was fantastic as well.
As an ACTRA member, (and SOCAN, too), I wish that the ‘executive’ of both guilds (unions…whatever we call them), would start listening to artists such as Byrne before deciding to take the position on copyright that they have.
BTW, loved your interview on “The Agenda”. I’m so disappointed in ACTRA’s position, that I’ll be writing a letter. (I write for the union magazine InterACTRA).
