Lawrence Lessig on Terri Gross' Fresh Air

Lawrence Lessig, the leader of the movement to update copyright law to bring it to a more realistic efficacy was interviewed today on National Public Radio's (NPR) Fresh Air. One of my favorite (or paradigm-shifting reads) books was Lawrence Lessig's: "The Future of Ideas."

Today, NPR's Terri Gross (Fresh Air host) interviewed him about his massive knowledge and his new book "Remix: Making Art and Commerce Thrive in the Hybrid Economy," which I will be buying today to read during my break.

The podcast: (http://www.npr.org/templates/story/story.php?storyId=98591002) is really well worth your time; it (and the book) will make you SMART!

From the interview: Lessig says his number one reading source is Google News! (Check it out.) Big news is that Lessig is moving from Stamford to Harvard (this coming Summer'09) to start a new Center on the area of research on Corruption = "TRUST/MISTRUST" in the public sector --- Wow! That is timely, thank you very much Governor Rod Blagojevich!
