Matt Mason, author of the book The Pirate’s Dilemma — which takes a look at how what has been called “piracy” throughout history has actually created new technologies and new industries — has put together a video that goes through some of the themes in the book, with the help of a couple of staffers from Current.tv and the executive producer of the TV show Heroes. We were planning to have Matt as a keynote at mesh 2008 in May, but he ran into visa problems and couldn’t make it. We’re still hoping to be able to get him up here to talk about his book.
