Hi Julian,

I had the pleasure to interview the Openlab folks [1] and our fellow Pd developer and artist Ben Bogart [2] for the online journal Vague Terrain.
You can find the complete text on-line at:
http://vagueterrain.net/content/2010/06/openlab-interview
http://vagueterrain.net/content/2011/09/origination-and-metacreation-conversation-ben-bogart

The former is an in-depth discussion about everything FLOSS with an accent on their local experience.
The latter initially focuses on Ben's work with FLOSS and dreaming machines, then drifts towards some socio-cultural issues involving free software and open source philosophy.

Hope this helps,
best wishes,

Marco

Hi all,

I'm hoping some people can point me towards any new and interesting
FLOSS/FOSS papers/articles that have caught your imagination, preferably
with a musical slant but not necessarily so.

I'm doing some writing on this topic for my studies and would like to feel
I have a thorough overview.

Things along the lines of the FLOSS & Art book or Marloes de Valk's article
in Contemporary Music Review from 2009 are perfect.

Very best wishes,

Julian
