If so who has it. If so where is it. People might argue that something is original if you think of it without anyone helping you, or anyone influencing you. The way I see it, everyone has their own definition of what the word "Original" actually means. Lets see here. orig-i-nal \(upsidedown "e")`rij(upsidedown "(e)")nel\ n : something from which a copy is made ~ adj 1 : first 2 : not copied from something else 3 : inventive --orig-i-nal-i-ty n --orig-i-nal-ly adv Lets look at the first definition, "something from which a copy is made". This means that if you make a Drawing and Jeff copies it, it is original. It doesn't say that if Bob influenced you in making the drawing, and Jeff copies it, it isn't original. BUT if you copy the drawing from Bob, and Jeff copies it from you, its not original because of the third rule, which states. "Not copied from something else". If you copy something in anyway, a picture, an idea, a shape, a form, it is not original. Well if you draw a circle, you are not being original. If you make a circle connected to a square then would you have something original(1)? or just two unoriginal objects put together(2). This is where things get confusing. If you say the second part, that means NOTHING is original if it can be connected with anything in the past. But if you think the first part, then you think that as long as what you created cannot directly be linked to something in the past it is original. Here is an example. I just had a great idea. I am going to create a group called F.U.C.K. which stands for Funny Unique Comedian Kids. This group will be a 'Zine released whenever we want, and will be full with nothing but jokes and shit. Now, if you go by the second part, then you would think since the acronym "F.U.C.K." has already been used it is un original, and look at the words "Funny", thats unoriginal. So is "Unique", "Comedian" and "Kids". Jezz people have been writing jokes for a long time, and there is nothing original about a 'Zine. So my new group is TOTALLY unoriginal. Now, if you go by the 1st way, then you think that that is a pretty original group, because you have never heard of a group with that name before, or one that writes nothing but jokes. So we got that down. Well now lets see here. I will try and make my group TOTALLY original. Straight out of my head. Once I have that down, I have to PROVE that it is in fact original, and here is how I would go about doing that. -Create my group. -Ask everything that has ever been able to think on and off this world. Even if they are dead. If they had every heard of anything like my group before. I would have to have different sounds, different ideas, etc.. -Make sure that once I ask someone if they have ever heard/thought of something like that, using any of those words or letters that they tell/talk to NO one of it. Now, you all know that that is impossible (right now). So proving that our group is truly original, is impossible. Thus, the concept of originality means that nothing is original until proven otherwise, so nothing is original since you can never prove it is. If you are thinking "Great, so nothing is original" I mean that in today's day and age nothing is original. To find something TRULY original we would have to go back to when the FIRST life in this or any universe or dimension had its first thought. That is the ONLY thing original. The next thought could have been formed by the one he just had, making it unoriginal. And everything you see around you, has been developed from that one thought. Now, don't you wonder what that thought was? A sound? A shape? A taste? A feel? A smell? Who knows.. only one thing knows for sure, and that is most likely (99.99999999999999-->% chance) dead. For all you people who just got pissed off reading this (mainly art people). Instead of saying "100% Original art by " you could always say "100% Out of the head of ", its like your almost saying the same thing. !
