Replay: Symposium on Sound Sampling

via Primus Luta

"This friday Syracuse University will be taking the subject of sound sampling head on for Replay: Symposium on Sound Sampling (http://sampling.syr.edu).

From the website:
"A distinguished panel—including a world renowned copyright expert; musicians who use sampling in their compositions; an academic expert; and a record label representative—will participate in a series of structured conversations about the law, business, technology, theory, and culture of sampling recorded sound. The event will also feature a live demo of sampling from the Belfer Audio Archive. The program will also be professionally filmed and simulcast on the Web."

The morning sessions will focus on the business and legal side of sampling with panelists including Google's Copyright Counsel and the founder of Illegal Art. Then afternoon will turn toward the creative side of things, with a sampling presentation by AvantUrb's Primus Luta and then in a discussion between him and Hank Shocklee from the Bomb Squad on creative innovation with sampling.

In a recent interview
(http://blog.gnarlee.net/primus-luta-is-comin-clean-exclusive-intervie),
Primus Luta explained:

"The folk from Syracuse contacted me based on my work in creating a notation system for sampling and its implications for a legal argument. They are really trying to use the symposium as a stepping stone for addressing these issues head on. It's been a buzz topic for a couple of years now, and so there are documentaries and panels at music conferences on the subject. With all of these things though few if any solutions have been offered. That's what really makes this symposium special, its not just hey lets talk about it, it's hey lets find a solution for it."

The full day will be broadcast on the web. To watch and participate you will need to register online (http://sampling.syr.edu/register.php). If you cannot watch the live broadcast, all of the day's events will be documented and posted on the Syracuse site shortly after the event."
