PressPausePlay, an award-winning documentary about our new digital culture, premiered at SXSW earlier this year. It is playing at film festivals and you can buy it on iTunes, Amazon, and other digital pay sites. If you don't want to pay for it, you can now download it via a torrent for free. This free option was essential to the filmmakers. As Seth Godin says in the film, ideas that are free spread faster. The movie examines the impact of today's technology advances on our culture and the digital artists, musicians, and filmmakers who create it. In the film, Godin says "there has never been a better time to be an artist." Taking a completely different view, technology pessimist, Andrew Keen, host of TechCrunch TV's "Keen On", says "we may well be on the verge of a new dark age... where the creative world is destroyed."Source: http://feedproxy.google.com/~r/Techcrunch/~3/rC3ZesqR6Os/
