creative commons
Public intellectual property
A creative commons is an area of shared creative work that anyone can use, adapt, or build upon—the artistic equivalent of common grazing land.
The phrase describes the general concept of pooled intellectual resources: The internet has created a vast creative commons of images, music, and code. (Capitalized Creative Commons is the licensing organization.)
