The REAL reason why people should come to the FC.o national conference:

On the evening of Saturday, April 22nd Friday, April 21st, Free Culture Swarthmore will be hosting a Pirate Parrrty for summit-goers and others. There will be costumes, dancing, eyepatches, and plenty of ARRR. There will also be pirate video remixes projected during the party–which is where you come in!

FreeCulture.org is calling for video remixes to be used for the upcoming party and future Pirate Parties. The videos should be set to danceable music, have at least ten seconds of pirate footage, and be in a VLC-friendly format. The remixes need to be in by 5pm on April 21st to be used for the first Pirate Party, though we will accept submissions later than that for other pirate parties.

Check out the details at the Pirate Party webpage!

P.S. We will be organizing video remixing workshops at Swarthmore where we will no doubt produce some entries for the pirate video contest!
