Description
"Free Beer," 2008. Series of eight compositions. One sheet signed and dated on the reverse, EA IV/VI. Published by Niels Borch Jensen Editions, Copenhagen. Photogravure in colours. Sheet size 50 x 50 cm. (8) "Free Beer is a beer which is free as in free speech, not in the sense of free beer. The name plays on a well-known quote by free software activist Richard Stallman: •Free software • is a matter of liberty, not price. To understand the concept, you should think of •free • as in free speech, • not as in • free beer • Originally named Væres Beer (Our Beer), the beer was received in 2004 by SUPERFLEX and students from the Copenhagen IT University. The project applications modern free software/open source methods to a traditional real-world product. The recipient and branding elements of Free Beer is published under a Creative Commons (Attribution-ShareAlike 2.5) license, which means that anyone can use the recipient to brew their own Free Beer or create a derivative of the recipient.'
