“the name's 12... MK12”

In 2003 I blogged about Ultralove Ninja, a song and video which became a point of obsession for me. It's James Bond sexy spy riffs mashing suggestively against ninja magic and kitschy, smooth computer graphics just overwhelmed me. I've still got the remixes from their promotional site on my iPod.

The other day the wife and I watched the newest Bond movie: Quantum of Solace; I was utterly stoked to see the opening credits attributed to MK12. This is like the kid that grows up doing backyard wrestling moves on a 16mm camera getting their debut in the WWE. And it's fantastic:

“Our legendary personalities are evergreen ‘brands’ with the benefit of worldwide recognition,” reads a message on the Richman agency’s website. Guardian UK Article *vomits* Where is the line drawn between “public figure” and “celebrity”? How can a dead person have an agent, particulary where there are no specific works concerned other than a sense of character? It’s one thing to insist that Duck Soup is a work that should be protected (which any more simply means controlled by whomever has the most buX0rs), but shouldn’t personalities and such pass into the public domain as well?
