Remix+Culture

Remixing the work of others to create a new work is something I embrace. However, I embrace it through the generosity of others who have made their work available through Creative Commons licensing.

Discussions with colleagues and observations of the work of others frequently brings remixing into conversation. But, my perception of the"remix culture" is that pretty much anything goes and in the name of "art", anything is legal. This conversation tends to sound like the issue is a new phenomenon, This mindset challenges my my code of ethics, but at the same time, makes me wonder how true I've been to my own code.
