Not Quite the Open Source Band, But . . .


Greg
Palast, one of the best investigative reporters ever (and largely unpublished in the US, naturally), has put together an audiobook of his latest work, Armed Madhouse. Special guests include Jello Biafra, Amy Goodman, Randi Rhodes, Larry David and More.

Not only is it free on the Intertubes for your listening pleasure, but Greg has made each chapter available for download under a Creative Commons license.

But wait, there's more. There is a re-mix contest going on. Simply snag whichever files you desire, mix them together with a thumping industrial bassline, the ethereal sounds of a theremin and barnyard animals bleating in the background and submit them to the contest.

At the very least, give them a listen. And then go ahead and buy The Best Democracy Money Can Buy.

It's a great way to further shatter your faith in American elections.
