The open forum for creativity is something that any artist would support. The idea of someone re-using my work is flattering. However, There is a dark side. This creativity, this work, is how I make my living. Owning the rights to my work is how I feed myself. I believe that there needs to be a “meta-data” that is traceable online. A way for everyone to follow the paper trail and see who all was involved. Give credit where due. We need to learn how to share with reciprocation..
This is going on where I live.
Skateboarders (performing art) are arrested, given a 300 dollar fine, and the equipment confiscated. Great use of tax dollars.
For anybody who believes,we have freedom of speech in Britain,should seriously
watch this video….
Check out the “official crown court papers” from the court case that lead

I’m a victim of this, they like to block my videos.
wow!
While I liked the lecture, the screen was just insanely distracting. It was rather unnecessary to have certain words he spoke appear on the screen behind him.
@uJustGotSushiRolld If your art teacher grades you on the quality of your work rather than the attempt and effort put into it, you have a really terrible art teacher. No teenager should get failing grades because they can’t use certain techniques “correctly”.
Although, I must say that I think pointillism and shading are extremely important, but I would never fail someone for not being able to do it properly. It just takes practice, which is limited by the small amount of time spent in class.

‘I DRAW MANGA. WELL.’
If you could draw well, you wouldn’t be drawing manga.
Youtube listen to this man and stop deleting our videos!
For those who think using someone else’s work isn’t creativity, should check out Kutiman’s songs. Also the opposite applies too as creating a song from scratch can still result it being unoriginal and uncreative.
@ddviolinist If you don’t understand the concept of a metaphor, that would show you own lack of intelligence not mine.
@ddviolinist think I know what you mean, but the kids are not the ones to blame.
Nowadays, parents don’t even see their children grow up, society and religion promove all kinds of segregation and dull the individual potential of kids, the media promoves weird stereotypes as role models and the economy and academic scenario pushes them to conformity. It’s a whole lot of things that undermines the health development of the individuals, and the ones who suffer the most are the children themselves.
@uJustGotSushiRolld ….highly creative in my approaches. I try to reach the individual. Music in group is a bit tough to do this way, but it can be done. You have to be able to look into the eyes, see the soul, and teach to that energy. Most people, NOT JUST TEACHERS, can’t do this. Consequences are, lack of creativity, acceptance of difference, wars, hatred, greed, fear, global meltdown. If you are in the USA, for now at least, you can still create your own content. Grades are useless.
@uJustGotSushiRolld It depends upon the teacher. Most human beings aren’t fresh and open. Get a classroom teacher that is fresh and open, and you have a creative class. I do know those types of teachers. People IN GENERAL, imo, are shut down and unevolved spiritually, if you will (in the broader sense), which closes down creativity. If it weren’t so, we would have an entirely different world and world consequences. Please don’t lump me into the “norm” of teachers, because I am not. I get
@magicpet And, you would be wrong. Please don’t speak for me. Not only is it rude, but it shows a lack of integrity, creativity, and intelligence.
@DarkZholt IMO, teaching formulas in the schools have always limited potential. How could it not? I teach privately and get to work one on one, and I do teach a conductorless string ensemble as well, which teaches total responsibility, connection, or they fall apart. Teaching outside the box certainly opens the channels for true creativity. You get no argument from me there. But, even the kids I teach privately are shut down. IMO, from technology, texting. Whole different type of kid today.
@uJustGotSushiRolld yeah but as a 23 year old. i honestly dont think that music nor porn companies can really fight against illegal downloading or file sharing. For me, if you can “google it” then you can do it. We all know stealing is wrong but in the internet people dont see the immeidate effects of downloading b/c the govt. is breaking down their doors like if you were searching terrorism and/or child porn.
@Kingdom007Hearts *nods*
They should be more concerned with illegal music downloading.
@ddviolinist They can’t. You, as a teacher, should realize how restrictive art classes are, and art is in fact the greatest outlet for original content. However, your colleagues force us to make the art THEY chose for us, rather than saying, “Draw me a picture of any sort; I will grade you on it.”
I DRAW MANGA. WELL.
Yet I get TERRIBLE grades in art, since I suck at, what’s this, pointillism? Gradient shading?
I’m being restricted from creating my own content by YOU AND THE REST OF THE SYSTEM.
@ddviolinist It’s one thing to copyright books. It’s quite another to copyright words. I doubt you would know the difference.
@ddviolinist Creativity and education have a funny relationship nowadays. Look at the sidebar here >>>
there must be a video called “Sir Ken Robinson: Do schools kill creativity?”, you might find it interesting, that is, if you didn’t watch it already.
I don’t think the youth are uncreative, I think they are being driven out of their potential by outdated teaching formulas. But that’s just what I think …
