Jesse Dylan video on Science Commons

News from Science Commons:

Today, we are proud to announce the release of Science Commons' first informational video. The video was directed by renowned director Jesse Dylan, the director of the Emmy- award winning "Yes We Can" Barack Obama campaign video with musical artist will.i.am from the Black Eyed Peas. The video can also be seen on the front of sciencecommons.org.

"I believe Science Commons represents the true aspiration of the web, and I wanted to tell their story," Dylan said. "They've changed the way we think about exploration and discovery; the important and innovative ideas need to be shared. I believe it's vital to revolutionizing science in the future. I hope this is just the beginning of our collaboration."

This video is launched in conjunction with a letter of support from Richard Bookman, the Vice Provost for Research and Executive Dean for Research and Research Training at the University of Miami. Bookman joins a group of esteemed Commons supporters featured in this year's "Commoner Letter" series, including this year: Eben Moglen of the Software Freedom Law Center and Columbia University, Renata Avila - CC Guatemala Project Lead, and singer/songwriter Jonathan Coulton. More information and an archive of past letters can be found at http://support.creativecommons.org/letters.
