Negativland rearranges bits and pieces taken mostly from corporately owned mass culture to make them say things that they were never intended to say. In the course of recording this type of cultural opposition, or \u0022culture jamming,\u0022 as Negativland coined it in 1984, the group has twice been sued for copyright infringement and, since 1991, has aggressively and publicly advocated a significant reform of U.S. copyright laws. As a member of Negativland, Hosler has coauthored essays and articles on these issues for Billboard magazine, Keyboard magazine, College Music Journal, NYU Law Commentator, and other publications.","offset":0,"nextOffset":null,"totalCharacters":828,"complete":true},"rightsUrl":"https://www.videohistoryproject.org/terms-service"}
