Coping with Babylon
..Rastafari is known to the world through reggae music. Many interviewees in Oliver Hill’s Coping with Babylon: the Proper Rastology, who live Rastafari in their daily lives, cite Bob Marley, Peter Tosh, and Dennis Brown in particular as ambassadors of Jamaica’s great folk religion, never seeking to diminish these musicians’ roles in spreading the word...
...Rastafarian imagery has infiltrated popular culture not just through reggae and other kindred music, but also in the form of clothing, fashion, and general iconography. Despite the well-established co-option of the religion’s trappings and the tremendous popularity of many reggae, dub, and dancehall artists, Coping with Babylon: the Proper Rastology takes a sober, relatively non-musical path in broadcasting the views and roles of Rastafari in the early twenty-first century...

RiP - a Remix Manifesto
...In RiP: A remix manifesto, Web activist and filmmaker Brett Gaylor explores issues of copyright in the information age, mashing up the media landscape of the 20th century and shattering the wall between users and producers...
...The film’s central protagonist is Girl Talk, a mash-up musician topping the charts with his sample-based songs. But is Girl Talk a paragon of people power or the Pied Piper of piracy? Creative Commons founder, Lawrence Lessig, Brazil’s Minister of Culture Gilberto Gil and pop culture critic Cory Doctorow are also along for the ride.

A participatory media experiment, from day one, Brett shares his raw footage at opensourcecinema.org, for anyone to remix. This movie-as-mash-up method allows these remixes to become an integral part of the film. With RiP: A remix manifesto, Gaylor and Girl Talk sound an urgent alarm and draw the lines of battle.

Neil Young - Get Around
...In this EXCLUSIVE WORLD PREMIERE film, Neil Young takes you behind the wheel of LincVolt, a 1959 Lincoln Continental converted to run on alternative, earth-friendly fuels. Young crosses America in this remarkable vehicle, singing in real time tracks from his brand new album "Fork In The Road." A beautiful, minimalist road movie, from Young's filmmaking alter ego Bernard Shakey...
Get Around
...Of the new album, UnCut Magazine says: “FORK IN THE ROAD finds Young back in his rusted-out garage, looking under the hood of a world badly in need of an overhaul. Employing the classic American metaphor of the endless highway, he sets out on a road trip through these troubled times, finding much to fret about, but fueled by the dogged belief that we can get through this mess.”
