Actually, I specifically asked Luke if the record company didn't want to bother with clearing the samples on Life of the Mind and he said that Nonthing was more than willing to try and clear those samples in addition to all the P.E. samples in er... what song was that? Anyways, with Life of the Mind he didn't want to bother 'cause he felt there was no way in hell it would be cleared. Also he asked that I didn't reveal the source of the sample in print. Apparently, you have to get the permission of the filmmakers _and_ the actors. I talked w/him about his views on sampling and if/how the 'law' affects his work but unfortunately I haven't transcribed the interview yet. I'll post bits + pieces if people are interested. Howie
