Yes, does my heart good as well. What I love about this stuff is the way it always forces me toward new knowledge as well. I thought for the longest time that copyright was the enemy, but the more I see students limiting what they can do with materials and creating even more thoughtful pieces the more I understand the benefits of constraints and challenges--the sonnet phenomenon, I guess.

The Youtube penchant of repurposing entire songs is also a curious development. I like the "Such Great Height" video a good deal and would welcome others, but am also thinking this more direct overlay generally misses opportunities for really mixing up the media. Again, can't wait to teach this stuff again to experiment more with the limitations and possibilities.
