Media is, according to [[w:Media (arts)|Wikipedia]], "the materials and techniques used by an artist to produce a work". "Free media" would be such material and techniques that are free. This would mean "derivative works allowed". On the downside, the term "Media" itself is, outside the arts, occupied negatively by the mass media, and could be understood to refer to free distribution channels rather than the creative works itself. | Media is, according to [[w:Media (arts)|Wikipedia]], "the materials and techniques used by an artist to produce a work".
