Comment 1 to Leon

From Leon:
"It is not yet clear what the Remix generation will give us, but these young people are definitely worth nurturing.  It is a good idea to teach and explain about the copyright issues covered in this series.  But at the same time, embrace this culture and see what they will bring to us in the future.  We might be presently surprised.  Peter Jaszi, Law Professor, American University stated that cultural progress depends on artists ability to use preexisting materials, copyrighted as well as other materials.  I think that the creative commons practice might give these young people a chance to find their voice without becoming pirates or criminals."
 
I completely agree with you. the Remix Generation needs to continue what they are doing in order to become more skilled. only then will they be able to be original. Painters studied the works of the greats making copy after copy in order to get the right stroke. The same will be true for the remixers
