Lava Lamp Stop Motion
This is my first attempt at a stop motion movie. I used a GoPro, a Lava Lamp, and some free software I found somewhere. It moves a bit faster than I wanted, but whatever.

Public not Facebook users but ‘Facebook used’ – Stallman
Dont post any pictures of me on Facebook or Instagram, said Richard Stallman, as he began his talk on the ethics of software and web development. Theyre a monstrous surveillance engine.
Were not Facebook users, were the Facebook used, he said, claiming that the social networking giant was morally unacceptable due to the amount of data gathered on users and they way in which it is used.
What on the surface seems anathema to the Web Summit ethos, Stallman in actuality appeared to inject a healthy dose of skepticism into the proceedings by addressing privacy concerns of the modern, digitally connected citizen.
We know now that the internet has been converted into a massive surveillance engine, Stallman said, adding that all digital technologies enable this abuse of surveillance.
He wears a badge declaring: Dont be tracked. Pay cash. This is in reference to the fact that Stallman not only avoids credit cards but also doesnt browse the web on his laptop and aims to withhold as much personally identifiable information as possible.
I dont want a database to know what I bought or where I was.
He doesnt own a mobile phone either. He never has. Once I found out how they can track users and be remotely configured into listening devices through back doors I thought this is Stalins dream. Some things are too important to give up in exchange for convenience.
A few years ago there may have been raised eyebrows at Stallmans words but in a post-Prism world following countless phone tapping incidents and where the NSA is alleged to have accessed Google and Yahoos oversees servers, it doesnt seem so unrealistic.
Stallman is known best for founding the Free Software Foundation and is a pioneer of copyleft, a way of ensuring that software can be distributed freely while preserving those freedoms for all.
If all the software we use if free then we have control over the computing we do on our own computers. You should reject any programme that isnt free because if the user isnt controlling the programme, then the programme is controlling the user, he said.
