People always argue that whether the video-sharing sites such as youtube, youku even facebook enhance the creative culture or not. To me, those video-sharing sites can enhance the creative culture and our development of creativity indeed.
According to Roman Marek, he said that "the virtuality of the internet maximizes accessibility. It almost seems like there are no external boundaries for the creativity of the community...", I agree what he said is the internet is accessibility, people can access to it and share their idea freely. They won't have any boundary to stop their creativity, except the illegal things. Therefore, all the people can surf the internet and get the new idea from others. It is the free-sharing world indeed. It's not same as the reality, we don't know how to public your own work / idea to others.
Moreover, I also agree that "people are sharing enormous amounts of audio-visual material — they are participating in a circulation of ideas. This circulation of ideas results in a process you may label as collective creativity." by Roman Marek. If people share their idea to others and it will be a circulation of creativity, that's mean "collective creativity". In the internet, it must be collected many ideas from all of us because have contributed the ideas even only a sketch.
Therefore, I would say that these video-sharing sites such as youtube, youku even facebook enhance the creative culture can enhance the creativity and the creative culture.
Yes...thats true that normal people might not know how to publish their own view and thoughts to others in real world.....by the way, nice quote of roman merek! haha
回覆刪除Edith, I totally agree with you that "accessibility" is an important reason for the video-sharing sites to enhace creative culture. In fact that not many people willing to pay extra money to keep their interests, so the idea of "free access" can encourages people to develop their hobbies.
回覆刪除Edith~you are right~ These video-sharing sites can enhance our creative culture.People can upload their works freely on these sharing sites.Then others viewers can express their views towards these works. By ding so, ideas can be improved and we can create a "collective creativity"
回覆刪除Thoughtful research adn precise citation! Besides, you may talk more your own opinion.
回覆刪除Hi Edith,
回覆刪除I agree that there are no boundaries on the internet. People can share their video without any restriction of place and time. Just like I can share my comment to you anytime at anyplace (with computer). Therefore the facility of sharing works have enhanced the creative culture.

Vivian,
回覆刪除Yes, they are also don't know how to perform their own work to public in what way.
Nina,
Accessibility is a most important reason for people to post their work such as video or clips on the internet. Therefore, it's can encourage them to show their talent.
kawai,
Collective creativity is the characteristic of internet. It's the platform for us to show our creativity and learn from other.
Elson,
Thanks your reminder. I would think more about it. :)
Kin Wai,
Thanks for opinion:) That's why people can share their opinions freely.
It's true that there are no boundaries in the virtual world, because internet does not set rules and guidelines, that why public start to make their own works and publish it on these sites. Sharing enrich the creative culture!
回覆刪除Of course, in this carefree world, people have little concern like people's magnitute towards ideas then they ccan just simply speak their mind which can stimulate people's creativity.
回覆刪除I agree Edith.
回覆刪除I think Youtube and sites like it give people who would not normally have the opportunity a platform to show their work.
However I think Youtube makes it difficult for everyday people to recognize "fine" art when they see it. With sites like Youtube the ability for museums to keep up with changing technology is getting difficult and as a result museums are getting less and less popular. What do you think?
