The Gist
Copy, Transform, Combine. This is the basis of all creativity. Intelectual Property has overtaken the idea of the common good.
The Good
- There is an extremely well thought out argument.
- When he was talking about the videos his visuals were extremely helpful.
- For people who already use ideas from other places and just combine them in different ways it's nice to know other people have done it too.
The Bad
- There wasn't a link in the description to their sources page. I had to dig into their website.
- When he was talking about everything besides the videos the visuals were extremely distracting.
- It could be very disheartening for a person who thinks their ideas are original to realize that they might not be.
The Questions
- Does everyone purposely use other things the way George Lucas did, or is it done accidentally?
- Why did James Kirby make this video?
- How is it actually determined if code has been copied?
The Review
Everything is a Remix is an interesting way to show how many of our famous works, including videos, songs, and code, are all derivatives.
Half a dozen red roses and three white roses.
