W4.2 March 29 KimMinJeong(김민정)

 1. Summary


I read a material that describes the Free Culture Movement. The Free Culture Movement brings ideals of the Free and Open Source Software Movement and extends it to all cultural and creative work in the software field. In the early days of Creative Commons, Richard Stallman supported the organization. He withdrew his application due to the introduction of several licenses, including sampling licenses, in developing countries. Stallman later restored some support when Creative Commons discarded those licenses.


2. What I learned


Criticism of the free culture movement comes from copyright advocates. Andrew Keen, a critic of Web 2.0, described Lessig as an "intellectual property communist" in his book, Culture of the Amateur, criticizing some free culture ideas. While the news media industry's falling market share is attributed to free culture, scholars like Clay Shirley argue that the market itself, not free culture, is killing the journalism industry.


3. Question


The Free Arts Movement is distinct from the Free Culture Movement in that artists have full copyright to their works. The Free Arts Movement is a practice that allows artists to leave works of art in public places and for the public to remove and store them. 


Then, are paintings that are drawn as if they spray their individuality on abandoned buildings or walls seen when walking around us one of the free art movements?

Comments

  1. I think it is hard to see that painting on walls or buildings is a free art activity. It is necessary to check whether it is legally approved, and it is safe to draw and express freely after certain conditions are met. Even in the case of a building that someone does not own, one should be careful to paint recklessly.
