The ability of a designer to share his material in our society has gone through various transitions since the beginning of time. Creation of the wheel, fire, tools and weapons, these things evolved through the sharing and collaboration of ideas. Our modern society expanded and changed this concept into our current method of bartering for ideas, products and skills. Different cultures exists with separation in politics, values and norms. Whether an individual or collective culture the western method of protecting ideas and products has become an accepted legal system in or world. Methods such as copyright or patenting are put into place and variations to the products are considered illegal.
Copyright by definition, as viewed 11 Oct. 10 on Dictionary.com “is the exclusive right to make copies, license, and otherwise exploit a literary, musical, or artistic work, whether printed, audio, video, etc.: works granted such right by law on or after January 1, 1978, are protected for the lifetime of the author or creator and for a period of 50 years after his or her death.” In recent years the copyright method has been challenged and adjusted to suit the needs of a ever changing technological world of creators that stimulate idea growth by drawing on and adapting previous works. This has been made possible through the creation of creative commons (CC), a non profit organisation that has made the adaptation of creative material possible under this form of copyright agreement, as show in the Ben9gn (2007) twilight clip altered for Sci-Fi channel then again by an individual under the CC rules.
