Lawrence Lessig Chats with The Booksmith

Reader Alex Beckstead ^[1] just left a comment on this announcement from last month ^[2] about author Lawrence Lessig, who appeared at the Booksmith to talk about his book Remix ^[3]. The comment points us to this 3–part video interview ^[4] (there’s also a 1-minute trailer on the page) in which Lessig discusses the main arguments of his book, makes allusion to his appearance on the Colbert Report, and outlines his future work: he plans to move out of copyright law and begin a serious examination of institutional corruption. Total running time: 23 minutes.
