Madonna’s half-time show at the Super Bowl yesterday is a great example of the symbiotic relationship between so-called mainstream culture and amateur, remix, fan culture or whatever you want to see it. First, Luminosity made a very well-received fan video combining Madonna’s Vogue with scenes from the movie 300.

It looks like Madonna, rather than suing Luminosity, ran with the idea:

Quite amusing. And yet another example of this hardly being a one-way flow from mainstream media to the amateurs.
