Jonathan Coulton‘s a funny guy. Some time ago, Neville and I played his song "Skullcrusher Mountain," a love song sung by a typical movie evil genius to the girl he's kidnapped.
Today, Lawrence Lessig's blog directed me to a music video Coulton has created, made up of photos from Flickr that allowed him to use them based on their Creative Commons licenses. Lessig calls it an example of building the "read-write Web." It is definitely a case of consumer-generated media at work.
