  1. Coppola hat recht. Der erste Schritt ist die Übernahme einer Idee mit eigenen Worten. Und das ist gut

    “We want you to take from us. We want you, at first, to steal from us, because you can’t steal. You will take what we give you and you will put it in your own voice and that’s how you will find your voice. And that’s how you begin. And then one day someone will steal from you.” —Francis Ford Coppola...

  2. 🎶 Weekly songwriting challenge: PUBLIC DOMAIN! 🚨

    Incorporate something from the PUBLIC DOMAIN into a new song. Borrow a melody, twist a lyric, or flip a folk tune on its head.

    Examples:
    💡 ‘Greensleeves’ as a metal anthem.
    💡 ‘Twinkle Twinkle’ as an existential crisis.
    💡 ‘Scarborough Fair’ as a diss track.

    What's your take? Post it to FAWM.ORG!

  3. Because I wrote a book called *Steal Like an Artist*, some people think I’m really interested in plagiarism. Actually, I’m much more interested in *forgery*.

    “Plagiarism is the flip side of forgery,” wrote Andrew Potter in *The Authenticity Hoax*. “Forgers pass off their own work as that of someone else, while plagiarists pass off the work of others as their own.”

    In other words: Plagiarism is taking credit for someone else’s work. Forgery is giving someone else credit for work you create.

    The difference is you *doing the work*.
