” It’s not people stealing my ideas that bothers me so much as them not having any of their own” – Nikola Tesla

Nick ( nicking original creatives’ ideas ) Munro proudly displaying on TV without scruples the mirror idea he stole and sold to John Lewis, passing it off as his own creation, just 6 weeks after Mike St.Mark posted the virtually identical Infinitude III , the Digital / Pixel Mirror.

Emerging and established artists and designers are known to peruse the vast London Dada archives, however some have been proven to be less scrupulous than others, notably Nick Munro ( above),

For the benefit of reputations and for the sake of good order please note that London Dada will highlight uncredited obvious plagiarism of ideas, concepts, musical compositions or images obviously closely influenced by artworks appearing on this or other LD-related websites or social media, Flikr pages, Instagram or YouTube channel.

This won’t necessarily be limited to social media but, for example, leafleting outside galleries showing offending artists’ works as well as other peaceful yet effective methods along with taking IP lawyer advice on commencement of legal proceedings on grounds of copyright infringement.

We suggest creatively challenged establishment artists (or talent-starved branding agencies) take their career-building material from elsewhere if they don’t have the moral character and integrity to credit their source or influence
