A mashup will take two or more existing songs of any genre and blend them into a new composition. It’s an Internet global subculture where every week, dozens of new mashup interpretations are unveiled. This song is a wonderful mashup (by Lenlow) of Beyonce, Dave Matthews, Jurassic 5, and Deee-Lite called ‘Work It Out’. One of many on the “Best of Bootie 2006” CD.
“One of the thrills of the mashup is identifying two well-known artists unwittingly complementing each other’s strengths and limitations: bacchanalian rapper Missy Elliott combined with morose English rock band Joy Division, ecstatic Madonna working with furious Sex Pistols. The most celebrated mashups are melodically tuned, positing a harmonic relationship between, say, Madonna’s voice and the Sex Pistols’ guitars. (The New yorker, Jan 10 2005) “
Popularly called the “homeless hacker” for his transient lifestyle, Adrian Lamo spent most of his travels couch-surfing, squatting in abandoned buildings and traveling to Internet cafes, libraries and universities to investigate networks, and sometimes exploit security holes. Despite performing authorized and unauthorized vulnerability assessments for several large, high-profile entities, Lamo refused to accept payment for his services.
Hackers Wanted, a documentary directed by Sam Bozzo, covers Lamo’s life and times. It features Apple Computer co-founder Steve Wozniak, TechTV personality Leo Laporte, Digg and Revision3 founder Kevin Rose and narration by actor Kevin Spacey. The film explores the practical and ethical themes of modern computer hacking, intertwining Lamo’s story with those of controversial figures throughout history. (via Wikipedia)
“When asked, my source told me the film is still, sadly, on hold, but it’s not yet dead. My research and sources tell me that the movie is more likely to be found in a Dumpster than it is to be screened - Trigger Street inexplicably turned down an offer to screen at the Vancouver Int’l Film Festival.” (via eyecrave.net) Thanks eyecrave for the exclusive trailer!
