It is Journalism
" #Asking for, #receiving and #publishing #leaks is not #espionage. It is #journalism."
The dangerous precedent being set in #JulianAssange's case is that journalists could be tried as #spies for revealing government wrongdoing and state crimes.

Remember that lawsuit to destroy the Internet Archive?
If public libraries didn't already exist, publishers would never allow them.
It's pretty much the same for free public education. If it didn't already exist, it would never be allowed.

Public Photography. The Sixties, an exhibition in Madrid as part of the annual PhotoEspañna festival, explores the power of the printed image as it appeared in books, magazines, newspapers, posters, and more. The Sixties surveys the publications that carried images of everything from Beatlemania to the sexual revolution, the civil rights struggle and the first man on the moon
Public Photography. The Sixties is at CentroCentro, Madrid, until 2 October

'What credibility does the #UK have after #greenlighting #US #extradition of #Assange where he faces #175-years in #prison for #publishing about #US #war-crimes, knowing the #CIA plotting to #kill him, with the #UN #denouncing his #torture and #indefinite #arbitrary #imprisonment?' #StellaMoris #quote

What do you do if you want to piss with the big dogs?
You must have massive intent. You must have high ambition.
I once wrote a story set in a baseball park, which I think is one of my best. Gordon read it and said, “I like this, too, but you should set this one in the kitchen!”
Why was it supposed to be set in a kitchen?
I was agitated. His advice made no sense and I didn’t take it. I assumed he was playing with me. But there was a book on my shelf—still there now!—“The Origins of European Thought,” the subtitle of which is “About the Body, the Mind, the Soul, the World, Time, and Fate.” And I thought, I’ll show you! I’ll show everybody! I titled my first book “This Is About the Body, the Mind, the Soul, the World, Time, and Fate.”
That’s how you piss with the big dogs.
Yes.

Folks at #Readium and #EDRLabs are trying to convince publishers that online #ebooks are safe, by trying to achieve some sort of #DRM -like “protection”. Needless to say, they’re bound to fail. https://github.com/readium/web/blob/master/docs/protection/introduction.md #EPUB #publishing
Hey everyone, I’m #newhere. I’m interested in #art-and-creativity, #books, #digital-art, #photogaphy, #publishing, and #writing.
Just found you and am moving over from Pluspora.

Knowledge wants to be free. But there is no commodity on earth for which there is not SOMEONE who wants to fence it in, even if it isn't theirs, and charge admission.

- Artist records performance --- to digital or analogue audio tape.
- Recording is mixed and engineered, cut to laquer-coated aluminium disk.
- Lacquer is silver and nickle electroplated to form master.
- Stampers are pressed from master, 2,000 psi at 300°F.
- Warm vinyl "biscuit" is sandwiched between lables and pressed in mold from stamper.
Freshly-pressed records are cooled, trimmed, stacked, checked, assembled into sleeves & jackets, wrapped, and shipped.
Every vinyl recording is already at least a fifth-generation copy.
