MRT
Multidimensional Registrability Thresholds
Dynamic standards for originality, governed by creators themselves.
MOVE tells you
How original something is—the objective measurement across dimensions.
MRT tells you
Whether that's original enough to register—the policy decision based on community standards.
Context-Aware Thresholds
Different creative domains have different norms. MRT respects this reality.
Jazz Improvisation
Borrows heavily from standards but might still be highly original within jazz conventions. Lower thresholds for harmonic borrowing, higher for melodic innovation.
Pop Production
Using the same four chords as thousands of others might still have original melody and production. Per-dimension thresholds reflect actual practice.
Transparent, Democratic Governance
Unlike copyright offices where bureaucrats set standards behind closed doors
Creator Voting
Registered creators vote on threshold adjustments
Public Rules
All rules are public and documented
Transparent Reasoning
Every decision is explained
Community Consensus
Changes require broad agreement
Why Dynamic Thresholds Matter
As AI makes certain types of creation easier, thresholds can adjust. If generating melody variations becomes trivial, melodic originality thresholds can rise.
If a new genre emerges with different norms, thresholds adapt. The standards aren't fixed in 18th century law—they evolve with creative practice.
Handling Disputes
When works fall near threshold boundaries, the system provides clear appeal processes with human review informed by MOVE's objective analysis.
