Media Arts journal #1: What is real?
We see many different types of images every day, we can find these images in many different ways; television, magazines, ads, and more. Many of the types of images we see everyday are digitally altered, but there are some that arent such as things you see in nature, you cant modify a plant or an animal because they are real. Photographs and videos can change the way you think about them. If you were to take a picture and someone digitally altered your, image, it still belongs to you because you took the picture, no one has the right to alter something that is yours. If the person wanted to make it their original work you would have to be dead for more than five years, or sell your picture to the person. I think that it isnt right to take someone’s work and make it your own, that is called copyright or plaigiarism.
