CC4r

About

Copyleft Attitude with a difference - version 1.0
The CC4r considers authorship to be part of a collective cultural effort and rejects authorship as ownership derived from individual genius. This means to recognise that it is situated in social and historical conditions and that there may be reasons to refrain from release and re-use. The CC4r articulates conditions for re-using authored materials. It is inspired by the principles of Free Culture – with a few differences. The readers are invited to copy, distribute, and transform the materials published under these conditions, and to take the implications of (re-)use into account.

Free Art License

About

The Free Art License grants the right to freely copy, distribute, and transform creative works without infringing the author’s rights. This license intends to allow the use of a work’s resources; to establish new conditions for creating in order to increase creation opportunities. The Free Art License grants the right to use a work, and acknowledges the right holder’s and the user’s rights and responsibility. The main rationale for this Free Art License is to promote and protect these creations of the human mind according to the principles of copyleft: freedom to use, copy, distribute, transform, and prohibition of exclusive appropriation.
