  • Summary

    The final chapter delves into another characterising feature of street and graffiti art – their sharing and appropriation ethos. It makes the point that tolerating appropriation and sharing practices, especially when done for non-commercial purposes, does not contradict copyright principles. It then sheds some light on the distinction between biting (copying, in graffiti jargon) and inspiration, and highlights the differences between copyright and social norms within the street and graffiti subcultures.
