The notion of reenacting the Trilon and Perisphere of 1939-40 at Ground Zero
today is probably technically copyright infringement. I wonder who owns the
Trilon and Perisphere design.
Yesterday's NYTIMES had an article about the possible copyright infringement
manifest by the latest Freedom Tower design. I didn't read the article nor
save it.
Anyway, today's NYTIMES has two articles, one about reenactment and one
(possible) copyright infringement.

Historic Epic is Focus of Copyright Dispute

I thinking about the issue that exists that is more a combination of these
two stories, and how creativity gets/is involved.
Technically, the St. Pierre Hurva Synagogue --

-- is copyright infringement, even if it's existence as a design is only
virtual. What allows this design to exist, however, is the 'fair use' clause
of copyright law which allows use of copyright material for educational
and/or non-commercial use. Or I could label this work as parody, which makes
the St. Pierre Hurva Synagogue design a matter of social commentary and/or
self expression.
