Copy is Right! is a satirical remix sampling stock images, sound effects, and pop music downloaded from the Internet. Colliding dialogues are generated from a tailor-made application utilizing the voice of the Apple synthesizer. By manipulating intellectual property and open-source software, the video reimagines the legal and illegal narratives traversing computational input, Internet-based technology, and social media under current conditions of techno-capitalism.
