Family comedy sequel featuring a blend of CGI animation and live
action and based on the iconic characters created by Peyo for the
1980s television series. When the dastardly Gargamel (Hank Azaria)
kidnaps Smurfette (voice of Katy Perry) and steals her away to

retrieve her from his clutches. However, with Smurfette the key to

Democracy of Sound is the first book to examine music piracy in the
United States from the dawn of sound recording to the rise of
Napster and online file-sharing. It asks why Americans stopped
thinking of copyright as a monopoly-a kind of necessary evil-and
came to see intellectual property as sacrosanct and necessary for
the prosperity of an "information economy." Recordings only became
eligible for federal copyright in 1972, following years of struggle
between pirates, musicians, songwriters, broadcasters, and record
companies over the right to own sound. Beginning in the 1890s, the
book follows the competing visions of Americans who proposed ways
to keep obscure and noncommercial music in circulation, preserve
out-of-print recordings from extinction, or simply make records
more freely and cheaply available. Genteel jazz collectors swapped
and copied rare records in the 1930s; radicals pitched piracy as a
mortal threat to capitalism in the 1960s, while hip-hop DJs from
the 1970s onwards reused and transformed sounds to create a freer
and less regulated market for mixtapes. Each challenged the idea
that sound could be owned by anyone. The conflict led to the
contemporary stalemate between those who believe that "information
wants to be free" and those who insist that economic prosperity
depends on protecting intellectual property. The saga of piracy
also shows how the dubbers, bootleggers, and tape traders forged
new social networks that ultimately gave rise to the social media
of the twenty first century. Democracy of Sound is a colorful story
of people making law, resisting law, and imagining how law might
shape the future of music, from the Victrola and pianola to iTunes
and BitTorrent.
What is creativity and how can we best nurture creativity in
different contexts? Drawing on a wide range of cases from the arts,
business, design, media and sports, Creativities encourages readers
to discover, mix and adapt their own version of creativity, rather
than attempting to imitate or follow 'best practice'. International
in scope, examples and cases extend beyond the typical Western
'creative genius' model, illuminating the great extent and
diversity of global creativities. The book is designed around five
key questions that address the what, how, where, who and why of the
creative process, employing frameworks, questions and illustrative
'recipes' designed to inspire out-of-the-box creative thinking. The
authors argue that to develop their own creativities, readers
should experiment with different ingredients and find their own
bisociative balance. With its rich array of cases, frameworks and
visual material, Creativities will help educators design and lead
classes on creativity, innovation and creative entrepreneurship.
Its accessible content will also appeal to and inspire students and
practitioners in business leadership, organisational innovation and
critical management studies.
