And the winner is . . .
For those waiting with baited breath on the outcome of the Pooling Ideas competition - the judges' reports are in, and the winner is (drum roll):

The Argyle Stairs 1930 to 2008 by Rossco
Which, coincidentally, is also the entry featured in our last post about the competition.
It was a very close call - each of the judges had a different favourite, and in the end it came down to scoring. Which means that, in the interest of fairness, we've decided to award not just two but four runners up (in no particular order):
- tHE sATORI sOUNDMACHINE 'We Art What We Share' by funknbeats
- A Message from Tourism Australia by notoriousruz
- WHO AM I by pipshea; and
- cooling by Finland.

Rossco gets an internship with Radio National's The Night Air and, of course, this fabulous trophy created by John Jacobs. Plus he shares with our runners up the Creative Commons prize pack, including t-shirt, CD, our CC case studies book and a USB chock full of remixable material.
The We Are What We Share seminar at which the results were announced went excellently. We had more than a hundred attendees, and lots of interaction from the crowd - we had debate about the merits of remix as creativity, discussion of text v photography as an art form, and reflection on how new technologies can be harnessed to the artist's benefit.
Special thanks (and a CC t-shirt) go to our expert judges and panelists:
- remix artist and The Night Air producer John Jacobs;
- social media researcher and Youtube expert, Dr Jean Burgess;
- designer, artist and remixer Merri Randell; and
- Creative Commons Australia’s very own Elliott Bledsoe.
And, of course, our main partners in the competition - ABC Radio National, the ARC Centre of Excellence for Creative Industry and Innovation, and the Ideas Festival.
