Broadcast #2 of T&A's Chicken Lips is in the can. We are DJs at the local community radio
station here in Salida: KHEN-LP 106.9 (website).
You can catch our show, T&A's Chicken Lips, at 8 am Mountain Time in Salida or streaming on the World Wide
Web. It includes a weekly audio "editorial" on computers called "Computer Kernels from the
Chicken Lips." The "column" appears in text form below and is pretty
close to what I read on the air.
Unfortunately the recording got damaged a ways into the program, so we have a partial
show attached.
Attached is a low quality (48kbps) copy of the show. Where is the
audio? Check enclosure or Attachment(s) links at the bottom of this
entry for the audio!

Open Source and how it relates to music
http://blog.wired.com/music/2008/04/charles-manson.html
If you’ve downloaded free software off of the Internet, there’s a good chance some of it was open source software. Open Source generally means that the software is free, and the computer code is publicly available. If you are a software developer, there are numerous open source licenses to choose from, ranging from licenses that only protect you against liability, to licenses that restrict how the software can be used and extended.
In 2002, Creative Commons was born, creating licenses that allowed recording artists to retain copyright while dedicating their works to the public domain. You can visit their website at CreativeCommons.org.
Many artists have open sourced their music to the public. One infamous individual recently released some music using a Creative Commons license that allows you to remix his music. So are you ready to remix this? (http://www.familyjams.com/ and http://limewire.org/mblog/manson)
What you just heard was a recording of Charles Manson, direct from prison. In the 70’s, he was found guilty of conspiracy to commit murders that were carried out by his Manson Family Cult. Can’t wait to see how folks re-mix this. I guess you don’t have to be GOOD to open source your music! (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Charles_Manson).
For some very impressive re-mixes of open sourced music, we’re gonna check out some re-mixed Shock The Monkey originally by Peter Gabriel. First up, Simian Surprise – Multiman.
Finishing out with our brief re-mixed music exploration, A Monkey named Don Jose by MusicJunkie. Who would think that George Bizet’s Carmen, an opera, and Peter Gabriel’s Shock the Monkey could mix? A re-mixer named MusicJunkie has brought these two pieces together in an incredibly creative way, and it actually works! Check it out...
You can hear these remixes and others on Peter Gabriel’s site RealWorldRemixed.com.
