Censorship Vs. Copyright

What distinguishes
Copyright from Censorship?
The profit motive.

There’s one more day to back the Mimi & Eunice’s Intellectual Pooperty minibook project! The above comic won’t be in it, alas, since I just drew it yesterday and the book is already at the printer. But there will be 40 other fine selections from the IP category, in full color.

Update: Mataparda uploaded this Spanish version on flickr:

Copyright Reform

This one’s going into the book.

Update: I’m going to try to write a haiku for every Mimi & Eunice comic this week. Today’s:

Real artists don’t wait
For lawyers and officials
To give permission.

Korean!

Mi Young Yi has translated Mimi & Eunice’s Intellectual Pooperty comics into Korean!

She writes,

I’ve translated in Korean and publish them on the web under Creative Commons License.

This work was opened to everyone who wants to participate to translate in Korean.

Now I edit it on PDF version, and want to distribute it to people who wants to make a booklet. It would include an instruction of printing and binding by themselves.

How awesome is that?

Made of Dreams

Trying something new this week: I’m posting comics every other day, instead of every day. I didn’t have enough idea notes for 5 strips this week, but I did have 3, so rather than give up I’m leaving off Tuesday and Thursday. Of course today (Monday) is Labor Day in the U.S., so maybe no one expects a comic today anyway. In that case, SURPRISE!

Trigger

Once again, this is a metaphor for copyrights & restrictive licenses – especially “reserving” “rights” even though you “won’t enforce them.” For Terry Hancock, who hopefully will explain more in the comments.
