Alternative rock, post-punk, goth. Electronic drums

Did they kick you out of the city?
moved from country to Melbourne.
Lots of the cultural stuff happens in the south
Much cooler in the south

All of it is self-recorded with Ableton. A selection of microphones
digital manipulation is cool

Not as quick as release seems.

What drew you to Creative Commons?
not much of a local way to get interesting ideas...except off the Internet
potential for revolution in approach to culture.
It’s a community thing as much as it is about individual expression
Why lock down art?
large numbers of people is liberating
How did you hear about Creative Commons?
Might have been in early 2000s
“The first set of copyright licenses was released in December 2002.”
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/DeviantArt
Where did the project name originate?
originally collaboration
“an action of moving downward, dropping, or falling.”
“a person who dissents.”
