Hi everyone
We're working on *Mix and Mash: The Great NZ Remix and Mashup
Competition* with a number of other organisations, and wanted to share a
little more info with you.
The competition is being run to assist New Zealand organisations to
release their content and data for reuse, and to encourage the creation
of new tools, services and experiences using this material – from iPhone
apps to digital stories to things the organisers haven’t even thought of
yet. This is a great opportunity to showcase CC licensed work in New
Zealand - and encourage people to get creative and re-use it!
Mix and Mash aims to:
- broaden New Zealand support for open and reusable digital content and
data
- encourage and reward development that uses New Zealand digital content
and data
- strengthen relationships between digital content and data producers
and the developer and creative communities.
Competition details, including categories and prizes, will be announced
at a special event in early November, and the competition will run for
approximately three weeks. Entries will be showcased online after the
competition closes. In the meantime, you can sign up here

us on Twitter <http://twitter.com/mixandmashnz> and Facebook
