 [Summary]

     Remix culture refers to the practice of recombining and modifying existing cultural works to create new ones. This practice is facilitated by digital technologies such as sampling, copying, and editing, which have made it easier to manipulate and distribute creative works. Remix culture can be seen in a wide range of fields, from music and film to art, literature, and software. Advocates of remix culture argue that it promotes creativity, innovation, and the democratization of culture by making it more accessible and participatory. However, there are also concerns about copyright infringement, plagiarism, and the ethical implications of appropriating other people's work without permission. Some artists and creators embrace remix culture and actively encourage others to use their work as raw material, while others view it as a threat to their intellectual property rights and creative autonomy. The legal status of remix culture varies by jurisdiction, with some countries having more permissive copyright laws than others. Creative Commons licenses are one way to enable and regulate remix culture by allowing creators to specify the conditions under which their work can be reused and remixed. The rise of remix culture has also raised questions about the role of the artist, the meaning of originality, and the relationship between creativity and ownership in contemporary culture.

[Interesting point]


     One interesting point is the legal and regulatory challenges surrounding remix culture, which vary by jurisdiction and require careful consideration of copyright law and other relevant regulations. This highlights the need for ongoing dialogue and collaboration between creators, regulators, and the public to balance the benefits and drawbacks of remix culture and to foster a more creative, diverse, and accessible cultural landscape.


[Discussion angle]


     To what extent does remix culture challenge traditional notions of creativity, authorship, and originality, and how can we ensure that these concepts continue to have value and meaning in a world where remixing and repurposing are increasingly prevalent?

Summary of reading material 1----HE YUNONG (3.10)

  Summary of reading material 1 --HE YUNONG (하우농) 1. Summary After reading these articles, I learned more about Wikipedia. As mentioned in the article, no one would have imagined that Wikipedia could become the top website today. Before I took the course taught, I was also a person who had only heard of wiki but could not use or understand what Wikipedia was, including wiki voyage, wiki data, etc. Because I have never been taught, I am very grateful to the professor for letting me know about wiki and joining wiki. I understand that the core of wiki is a collaborative community, where many volunteers freely and voluntarily share their knowledge; Children as young as seven or eight years old and elderly people can become volunteers in wiki. One of the characteristics of wiki is that it is free and unpaid, so all wiki people don't work on wiki for money, but to love and help others.
