A reified relator binding a source creative work, a product creative work, one or more derivation types, and optional source/product segments. Tier-honest: a sample derives from a Recording region, a cover is a new Expression, and 'same Work?' is a separate standpoint-indexed gmeow:realizes claim (Principles 4, 9).

Structure

Subclass of: gufo:Relator

Practical Pattern

Use gmeow:CreativeDerivation as a specialized kind of gufo:Relator. Add statement metadata or a standpoint when the assertion needs provenance, confidence, or vantage.

Usage Advice

Use when

• Use when a derivation between two creative works must be first-class — its type(s), source/product segments, or provenance recorded — and when tier-honesty matters (a sample derives from a Recording region, not the abstract Work).

Avoid when

• Avoid for the flat 80% case (assert a shortcut like gmeow:coverOf, gmeow:remixOf, gmeow:samples) and avoid using it to assert 'same Work' — that is a separate standpoint-indexed gmeow:realizes claim.

How to use

• Mint the relator and bind gmeow:derivationSource, gmeow:derivationProduct (each functional), and one or more gmeow:derivationType; pin source/product segments at the honest tier. It pairsWith the flat wasDerivedFrom shortcuts.

Examples

• ex:d1 a gmeow:CreativeDerivation; gmeow:derivationSource ex:original; gmeow:derivationProduct ex:remix; gmeow:derivationType gmeow:derivationTypeRemix.
