Do you think open source fine art is better than one from a single artist's vision?
- cgio 11y agoArt has been quite open source in its workings since centuries. Look at how artists were joining masters to learn the art and how they "forked" masters' techniques to create theirs. Personal vision is not precluded from open source, to the contrary it is encouraged.
- bro-stick 11y agoR&B, EDM, pop and so on wouldnt have much left without remixes and sampling.
- robbrown451 11y agoBut in that case money changes hands. That's pretty different from open source.
- sangnoir 11y agoNothing about open source precludes money from changing hands. Case in point: Red Hat.
- Splendor 11y agoThose aren't necessarily mutually exclusive options. Something can be "open source" and still have only one contributor.
- applecore 11y agoYes. Open source is about way more than the finished product; it's about the shared community, techniques, processes, and tools.
