The Lai Thai Classical Art Pattern on the Digital Platform
Lai Thai Classical Art Pattern is currently present on multiple websites in the form of picture: Jpeg, Png, and Vector. None of these websites belongs to the Thais. With their commercial purpose, Lai Thai Classical Art Pattern can be bought through them. The transaction and availability of Lai Thai Classical Art Pattern prompts the PRACOT project. They provoke the question: why are the Thai Art Pattern being trade on a foreign web- site. Lai Thai Classical Art should be freely distributed as the public assets. School children can download the Lai Thai for their report cover decoration. Wedding couple can download them to make wedding invitation card. Lai Thai Classical Art Pattern in ltrates in everyday social and commercial life, and Thais are buying them from the foreign websites. This very concept sparks off the idea of documenting Lai Thai Classical Art Pattern by the Ohm Foundation: Lai Thai Classical Art publically belongs to the Thais, ASEAN, and the world. No one should have to buy the Thai Heritage.
