Blue Oyster Gallery

Well it was so long ago now that i dont really remember what i thought about it in detail. But i really felt strongly about the topic of the artists works and thought it was a worthwhile show to go to.

This article was really interesting. It seems odd that it is illegal to project an image onto a building. it was funny how they made the comparison of the man with the black backpack holding the projector to a terrorist with a bomb in their bag.

Case Study 1.
The two songs seem quite similar in their structure with how the rhythm and beat are executed. However, the overall sound of the two songs is different enough with the vocals and melodys that i think it can be seen as george harrison was influenced by the Chiffords but not making a copyright infringement.

Case Study 2.
In this case i believe universal studios did completely ripoff lebbeus woods as much as i enjoyed the movie 12 monkeys. The chair was obviously the same seeing as it had the same design and right down to the same texture.

Case Study 3.
I think that although keirs work is illegal it should be viewed as fair use.

i did not upload an image to flickr because i dont want my work to be modifyed and abused in the public domain as i feel people have little respect for images on sites like flickr
Neither did i upload to youtube because too many people watch them without having any appreciation for the artist
