Reminds me of the AACS controversy when people starting printing keys of t-shirts, and illegal numbers were born.

- fjdlwlv 10y agoDiffernt issue. 4'33 is a recording of the audience, not silence. I studied it in a music class in school. Cage's estate's infringement claim on "silence" was not upheld by a court. The defendant on that suit put Cage's name on the album as a songwriter, of his own accord.

- ktta 10y agoOh yeah that was a miswording on my part. I wanted to say it can be claimed using copyright laws.
