Matrix movie and free software philosophy
- Anmelden oder Registrieren um Kommentare zu schreiben
Some time ago I saw a video that had parts of the matrix films playing to show the philosophy of Free Software. Now I can't find it anymore. Does anyone knows it?
If I remember correctly it was hosted on a website that specifically dealt with free software movement.
Hope someone can help me :)
what website did you originally see it on?
That's the problem, I don't remember :(
I think it was a website that dealt specifically with free software matters, and it was a page (a specific page inside that website) that looked like a list of files ready for download, like a ftp.
But I don't remember :(
YUHUUU!
I found it!! :D

Here is the trailer so you can watch it. It gives you an idea of how he took the movie and used it to reflect the Free Software philosophy.

Probably Ogg Movie. Extensions don't mean anything anyway...
I love the first Matrix movie (yes, that specifically means that I hate the 2 others and that I feel the need to say it),
and except the ridiculous last "rave party" scene, this is nice!
I'm surprised that it's possible to put a copyright (creative commons it seems) on a video based on copyrighted material. Isn't that pretty much useless?
The remix is a new work. Well, it depends on the legislation at work...
It's definitely a new work, but it's hard to take that copyright seriously.
I don't see the point, no ways someone would sell that, and it's probably considered as fair use otherwise.
Anyway, not that important, I wondered if there was something meaningful behind that.
