body: Take modern art, for example. People draw a circle and call it art, and apparently it automatically has a copyright after it's made. Then I come along and draw another circle and call that art, and it looks very similar. Would that be against the law because someone has already made it before, or can I use it if I have proof that I didn't copy their art? And keep in mind I don't know much about this because the only law experience I have is from Wikipedia.
