Creativity is the work of art stimulated by the human mind. Every song ever listened to, every movie ever watched and every article ever read (irrespective of the level of creativity) is the work of art of a lyricist, screenwriter, and an author, respectively. Although intangible, creativity shares a similarity with other tangible assets due to its capacity to generate revenue. Therefore, like every asset with an underlying value, the output of a lyricist, screenwriter, and an author is also capable of being appropriated without authorization or consent from its owner. Further, the efficiency of a state's intellectual property laws also underlines the level at which they intend to promote artistic works, inventions, corporate structures, industrial designs and everything else that could create an identity while generating revenue. Hence, legislators take utmost care and exercise diligence while drafting intellectual property legislation(s).
