Why would more than 500 artists sample the same song?
- Con: Piece of inspiration, reminder of history, see how far we have come, creates a sense of innovation and a new product
- To prove originality the podcast mentions different artists like Bruno Mars - Uptown Funk is pop, paul mccartney is rock/alternative, amy winehouse is soul
- by providing artists from each genre, creating their own spin on a common phrase, why would it not be a new song?
- The podcast mentions We Cant Stop, thpugh she uses La Di Di from Duggy fresh, it sounds nothing like the original, its actually different in the lyrics, spell things differently to avoid copyright
- in addition, artists also proclaim the legitness and originality of sampling because they're reinventing a new sound
- feel as though the music is speaking to them, and giving it the love they need
- due to previous legal issues, artists have not realized the issues with copyright, they have begin to give artists credit by using their names in the song, using "royal rights"
- fall out boy paying uma thurman and pulp fiction
- Pro: the base of that new song is from somewhere else, so it's not original
- we fool ourselves with originality
- subconsciously stealing - not original
- even the best artists
- we live in a post-sampling era, so everything that people are taking has already been done so it cant be original
- often times artists over-borrow to the point where it is ripping off and not just sampling - copyright
- Lack of acknowledgement without credit given, no matter how much of a spin you take to it it is still copying
What point does it get to where is copyright - answered up there
Fashion!
Does copying in Fashion keep it fresh
Pro:
- Bizarre knockoff - less wealthy people start buying so then wealthier people start to use that trend
- main inspiration is street style, probably more cost efficient
- fashion designers can get repetitive, but it can get harder to differentiate but you want to be in the in group
- the trends that come about within each generation often dictate the market, trends come from another designer and are spun to please an audience
- style is when a designer makes something up and it won't fade like a trend would
Con:
- "There is no such thing as plagiarism in fashion" (Except labels!!!)
- little property protection and only thing you can copy is label
- We have to remember that denotative and connotative are different
- keep in mind, copying is the rule!
- podcast says that world thrives from thieves, they're not stealing they're borrowing
- bizarre knockoff: fashions fade, but style is eternal
- although one generation brings in an article of clothing, it will be replicated and improved
- even though you start with one object, by the end it will be a completely different object
Technology
Where do good ideas come from?
- Con:
- no new ideas anymore
- ideas come back similar than there is no progress
- Steve Jobs made fun off "fake
- Pro
- God ideas come from genius
- some fail to place themselves correctly
