Copywrong...
"The Creative Freedom Foundation has teamed up with Mike Corb and Luke Rowell / Disasteradio to produce the Guilt Upon Accusation anthem: The Copywrong Song.

The Copywrong Song at CreativeFreedom.org.nz/copywrong.html is free to download, remix, and in true community spirit the Creative Freedom Foundation are encouraging participation from one and all by way of a Remix Challenge and an open call for track contributions.

Creative Freedom Foundation Director Bronwyn Holloway-Smith says "We invite artists everywhere to remix and contribute tracks to show that they don't want Guilt Upon Accusation laws done in the name of protecting art and creativity."

The Remix Challenge will see music and video makers worldwide competing to make their ultimate remix of The Copywrong Song. The open call for tracks contributions invites musicians to send in their contributions to the song, with tracks later being collated into the CFF's version of The Ultimate Copywrong Song.

The Creative Freedom Foundation's petition against Guilt Upon Accusation laws in NZ has rapidly grown overnight, ballooning from 5600 to over 7400 signatures including over 3400 artists.

Instructions on how to take part in the blackout can be found on www.CreativeFreedom.org.nz"
