RE: New Glitched Art! And my thoughts on Memes and 'infringement' joke.
Alright. Fair enough. I've followed you for a long time. Never once thought about stealing your posts and presenting them as my own, for profit. I suppose that would be okay with you if I did, but I won't. It's a respect thing. Even though I don't agree with your attitude here, I still won't steal your work. ....I won't vote for it either. Have a good day.
If you remix it you could let me know about it! It's the ideas that are most infectious anyway. There is no copyright on ideas. That's why when it comes to a court setting one could copyright certain terns of phrase for specific use to combat the vocabulary the existing laws are written in. Culture is more of a thought experiment. We use each others ideas without even consciously knowing it. There are no thought police that would tax your mind or if you used someones ideas to help with your own similar idea.
If I paint a house, I want to be able to say, "I painted that house, it's the result of my work." If someone came along and said they painted it, and the client gave that liar the money instead of me, I'd be pissed. I'm not sure why artists these days have to be treated like shit just because they want the credit and the money for the work they did. For me, personally, I'm an independent artist. Yet I get lumped into this pile of trash just because I want to be able to own what I worked on.
I've heard what you said from thousands of other people. Same words, same script. You think you're 'free thinkers', "can't own a thought." None of these artists even say they want to own thoughts. My only question is how did you and others like you get so deeply brainwashed that you all think the same way. There are artists. We fought governments and corporations to own the rights to our work...and now these dictator type people are trying to take that away from us. It doesn't even make sense.
