The Ecstasy of Influence: A plagiarism

I've just come across The Ecstasy of Influence: A plagiarism by Jonathan Lethem. It's quite clever - the whole thing is basically a collage of plagiarised bits from other people's writings and makes the point about over reaching intellectual property regulations very nicely. I believe it is based on talk he gave at a conference held at NYU in 2006, Comedies of Fair U$e.
