Culture Canvas

_A roundup of the week's arts and culture headlines._
The [South By Southwest Music, Film, and Interactive Festival](http://sxsw.com/) is underway in Austin, Texas. ["Beware of Mr. Baker,"](http://www.imdb.com/title/tt1931388/) a documentary about Cream drummer Ginger Baker, and ["Gimme The Loot,"](http://gimmethelootmovie.com/) a narrative movie about rival graffiti artists in New York, took the top awards for film at the festival, via [The Guardian](http://www.guardian.co.uk/film/2012/mar/14/sxsw-beware-mr-baker-gimme-loot). NPR Music has [live coverage](http://www.npr.org/event/music/147357853/sxsw-2012) of SXSW Music, which features both well-established and up-and-coming musical acts. Above, Santigold performs at SXSW earlier this week. * [The Encyclopedia Britannica](http://www.britannica.com/) will no longer be available in print, via the [BBC](http://www.bbc.co.uk/news/business-17362698). * [The British Library](http://www.bl.uk/) is releasing recordings of Shakespeare's writings in a dialect touted as original Elizabethan English. While several stage productions have featured the dialect, the CD is the first of its kind, via [The Telegraph](http://www.telegraph.co.uk/culture/books/booknews/9143302/How-should-Shakespeare-really-sound.html). * [The New Republic](http://www.tnr.com/) has a new owner: Chris Hughes, a co-founder of Facebook, via [The New York Times](http://mediadecoder.blogs.nytimes.com/2012/03/09/new-republic-gets-an-owner-steeped-in-new-media/). * A Dallas couple pleaded guilty this week to a $3 million fraud revolving around art, via [Glasstire](http://glasstire.com/2012/03/08/dallas-couple-plead-guilty-to-3-million-art-fraud-scheme/). * Telenovelas are increasingly being filmed and produced in Miami, not Mexico City, via [The New York Times](http://www.nytimes.com/2012/03/09/business/media/telenovelas-popularity-brings-business-to-florida.html). The shift reflects marketing opportunities, Florida tax breaks and a large audience for Spanish-language television that reflects life in the United States. * For the past two weeks, Chicago-area teenagers have been competing in the [Louder Than a Bomb](http://youngchicagoauthors.org/performances.html) poetry competition. Two young poets [discussed their work](http://web-smtp.wbez.org/blog/bez/2012-03-12/louder-bomb-teens-share-poems-life-experiences-97221) on WBEZ this week.
