    Larry Lessig
    gets TEDsters to their feet, whooping and whistling, following this
    elegant presentation of “three stories and an argument.” The Net’s most
    adored lawyer brings together John Philip Sousa, celestial copyrights,
    and the “ASCAP cartel” to build a case for creative freedom. He pins
    down the key shortcomings of our dusty, pre-digital intellectual
    property laws, and reveals how bad laws beget bad code. Then, in an
    homage to cutting-edge artistry, he throws in some of the most
    hilarious remixes you’ve ever seen.
