Lawrence Lessig At SXSW 2003 – Audio and Video Files

Better late than never!
As promised, here are MP3s, “small” and high resolution videos of Lessig’s Sunday, March 9, 2003 presentation at SXSW 2003.
Please see the notes below each clip regarding its contents.
(Parts 1-3 of the MP3 don’t match the Parts 1-3 of the “smalls,” for instance.)
The notes will help you figure it out.
The Q and A clips that are available on their own have the questions edited out to save on file sizes. (And since my camera wasn’t able to pick up the questions anyway.)
Lessig’s answers make it pretty clear what the questions were.
I have dedicated this work to the Public Domain.

A Ton Of Stuff Going Up Today

So I was planning on being on a plane all day today, but I decided to wait a day and rest up a bit before this week’s SXSW Conference in Austin, TX.
I didn’t get into the Music Showcase as I had hoped, but I’ll still be there all week and I’m going to bring my guitar just in case any of you with gigs feel like letting a girl with a guitar sing a quick 3 minute song or two before your set. (Or perhaps in the middle of your party — I only have two songs so I can’t take it over — and I need zero preparation or set-up — just let me sit down somewhere with the guitar.)
Shoot me an email if you’re interested: lisarein@finetuning.com.
Attention: Speakers and bands. I’ve got my camera and a relatively flexible roaming schedule. There’s no reason why I couldn’t roam over you’re way if you’d appreciate some footage of your work. Just drop me a line.
Okay so what’s in the kitty for today: Raving at the Feb 16 march, The Daily Show takes a look at the Shrub’s “Faith-based Aid”, Pelosi finally speaks up (a little), and Colin Powell continues to say close to nothing at all…
Plus some clips of the Senate arguing about the war and addressing the issue of the potential future (or lack thereof) of a Kurdish nation under American rule.
