While on my morning stroll to the nearby Espresso Bar, I encountered this poster near my home. I quite like it. You see, generally, artists–particularly graffiti artists–tend to get copyright law all wrong. However, this young chap–or gal–got it right: ideas are free. Copyright law doesn’t protect ideas, but merely the fixation (materialization) of those ideas. God bless Williamsburg dissidents.
