Presentation to ULearn 2013 in Hamilton, New Zealand, on digital storytelling, copyright and Creative Commons.

2. First point:
All culture is a form of 'remix'

3. First point:
All culture builds on other works

4. Second point:
It hasn't always been easy to build on
other works
('read-only')

6. Third point:
The technical barriers to remix and
reuse are dropping
('read-write')

7. Example:
Lego Life Lessons
By the Manning Brothers

8. “83% of young people that we
surveyed said they have used a
computer to create their own art in
the past 12 months.”
Creative New Zealand

9. 22% of the general population
said they have used a
computer to create their own
art in the past 12 months.

10. “Digital art has emerged as
the artform that young
people most want to be more
involved with.”
Creative New Zealand

11. Fourth point:
The legal barriers to remix and reuse
remain

14. A disconnect between the law
and (positive) behaviour online
