BIO
Rob Myers is an artist and hacker based in the UK.
I have been creating images of the contemporary social and cultural environment through programming, design software and visual remixing since the early 1990s. My work is influenced by popular culture and high art in equal measures. My interest in remixing and sampling has led to my involvement in the Free Culture movement. I have been involved in the public consultation regarding the Creative Commons 2.0 and CC-UK licenses. All my visual art is available under a Creative Commons license.
My interest in programming has led to my involvement with the Free Software movement. I developed the Macintosh version of the Gwydion Dylan programming language compiler. All my software is available under the GNU GPL.

Is the entire event (including the lawsuit) a performance around this theme?

In the state funded sector it is.
In the market sector it isn't.
Since art is a mixed economy it would be interesting to look at the
lines of tension that this causes, if any.

It depends on the painting. There are some very good painters on this
list, and there are some very good hackers on this list. Both arts are
skill based, and so a bit too old fashioned for the outsourcing and
crowdsourcing managerialism-that-protests-too-much of relational aesthetics.
