undeadart.org & Creative Commons wants your dead works

FreeCulture.org's http://undeadart.org

"Ever wanted to bring something back from the dead? Well, you still can't revive old Fido, but you can bring dead art back to life! Most art doesn't make it into the history books – in fact, it's often seen by only a handful of people before it vanishes into dusty oblivion.

But now, thanks to a growing movement to use Creative Commons licensing and the public domain to keep art available and reusable, it's possible to breathe new life into art that would otherwise be forgotten."

Based around George A. Romero's 1968 "Night of the Living Dead" who never put a copyright notice on the movie so it's been available in the public domain ever since. Get a copy of Archive.org or from the torrents they've provided then be creative.
