Hi Nate,
cool, thanks for your effort. I took a different approach to capture Bill’s talk; I took several photos and reconstructed his slides. See:

Thanks for the info Bill – I added those links/fixes! About authors making a living with new technology – I am absolutely fascinated with this topic, and I totally agree with what you’re saying about the field of dreams approach being wack. Since the existing state of publishing doesn’t necessarily prioritize the money and ideas of an author, especially the non-famous ones, I just think the interwebs offer the possibility of direct revenue and control to authors. I DON’T think that will actually happen since publishers serve a crucial role. But I do think there is a somewhat common conception that the current distribution system matched compensation for authors with true market demand, and provided a way for authors to make a living. It was one way, and has it’s pros and cons. If there is a better system, I totally agree it is taking extraordinary effort to create, and definitely the field of dreams approach won’t cut it. We are trying to work with Creative Commons or anyone that can actually help build a better method for compensation and distribution.

I got a lot of this from a history professor at the University of Chicago, Adrian Johns, who taught an awesome “sociology of technology” course at UCSD, where we read the original patent and copyright conceptions of Milton and Blackstone. Fascinating stuff. The best part is that it wasn’t *that* long ago, in western culture, that if you had an original idea such as a poem or a play, you were considered a funnel for god’s creativity on earth and gave your idea to the king as god’s representative. So it’s not hard for me to imagine a new cultural perception of what an author is and how their ideas get compensated – but it’s gonna be a while. And man I hope we can make a difference in that change.
