“Laughing all the way to the crematorium.”
CC-BY: A Step into the Belated Future
On August 12 the web magazine Reality Sandwich published a second essay of mine. Click here to read the full thing. Here’s the blurb:
Copyright law now protects creative works for almost a century. At the very least, copyright terms should be drastically reduced. Of course, the concept of revising creative compensation is based on the presumption that we will still use monetary currency with inborn inflation in the future. But a gradual transition would be better than picking up the pieces in a post-apocalyptic world.
A Supraterranean Manifesto
Exciting news! On July 16 my essay “A Supraterranean Manifesto” was published on Reality Sandwich, the web magazine connected with the progressive social network Evolver (click here to visit my profile on Evolver).
I’m thrilled about this because I haven’t done anything but self-publish my creative work since late 2008. As you may have seen, I’ve self-published various essays and videos on Supraterranean and my Refractor blog in the time since.
What’s even better is that they didn’t alter or edit the essay before publishing it! It’s about 4,300 words long, but if you have a moment, please check it out.
Welcome
Welcome to the new version of my personal website! My name is Nick Meador, and I’m a 2008 graduate of the Masters of Journalism program at MSU. This website is intended to be a nearly comprehensive guide to everything that I work on.
Please bear with me over the next few weeks while I customize the site. In the meantime, you can see my recent creative work in the box below. Also, I just self-published a collection of my early work, titled Seeking the Upward Spiral. You can get the PDF at the Supraterranean Books page.
