wocintech stock - 149 by WOCinTech Chat // CC BY 2.0
One of the best CC Things of the Week from the last year was easily the stock photos from Women of Color in Tech Chat. We wished there were more and our wish was granted: they added so many more photos! Go check them out already!
Woman Applying Makeup on Subway by WNYC New York Public Radio // CC BY-NC 2.0
These stock images are nearly too real for anyone who commutes on the subway in any big city. Surely the folks over at WNYC had a lot of fun with this photoshoot, check out their whole album!

We love how informed and enthusiastic these kids (and their teacher) are about copyright and CC licenses. Thanks for spreading the word!
colouring book by vegenaut // CC BY 4.0
Adult coloring books are on the tables & shelves of nearly every book store these days. Here’s a great free & open source version for you to enjoy, share, and remix – and not just for adults!
Digital Sundial by Mojoptix // CC BY 3.0
This week’s thing was first noticed by our CEO, Ryan Merkley, and we can’t argue with him: this digital sundial is one of the coolest 3D printed things around.
A Kiss, Deferred by Moth Collective // CC BY-NC-ND 3.0
This contribution to the New York Times’ Modern Love column, based on a true story written by Nikolina Kulidžan, is simply lovely. I hope we hear happy endings to stories like this more often.
Coffee Art by Matej Novak // CC BY-NC-ND 2.0
Reflective photography and one of the best beverages on earth, together at last.
David Bowie Blackstar artwork by Barnbrook // CC BY-NC-SA 4.0
We would be hard pressed to find a cooler thing to be CC licensed this week. Go and get all the artwork from Bowie’s final album to reuse and remind you of our dearly departed David.

We absolutely love this site that searches CC0 images: http://finda.photo/ by David Barker. I found this beautiful image simply by choosing to search by the color green. It’s a reminder that even you don’t see much sky when you look up, sometimes that’s not such a bad thing.
End for Sure by Populous & Eric Steuer // CC BY-NC-SA 3.0
We might be a bit biased on this one; CC’s very own Eric Steuer is featured on vocals on this track. It’s our jam this week maybe it can be yours too.
The Edges of Dubai by Trey Ratcliff // CC BY-NC-SA 2.0
We love how Trey has captured the Dubai skyline; it almost looks otherworldly.
Our friends at the EFF curated and released an anthology of short fiction (under a Creative Commons License, of course) and we couldn’t be happier for them. Surely, a great read while you’re enjoying some downtime.
