Ok, this video samples the music from HT Gold – the most complex reverse engineered c64 interactive glitch machinima game thing, with maximum playability! (hello buzz words) Autoboy did the programming and I made the music. It was exhibited in 6 meter format at the main square of Copenhagen, at mikrogalleriet, and at HAIP Festival. And now this guy samples the audio, without permission, without credit. I guess people don’t recognize it as music, and then my remark is a bit naggy-waggy. Indeed, we left some of the sound effects from the original game (ring modulated with the song) but most of the sounds that you can hear come from a song that plays linearly. And the sampled bits in the video are quite loooong. Well, the song is not CC’ed and maybe it’s not even eligable for copyright (as a non-fixed work), so.. yeah. It’s because of things like this that copyright could actually have some kind of practical purpose, somewhere behind the economism…
