For copyright protection, a work must be original and fixed in a tangible form of expression. This means it must be created independently (original) and exist in a medium from which it can be perceived, reproduced, or otherwise communicated, either directly or with the aid of a machine or device (fixed in a durable medium). Ideas, concepts, principles, or discoveries by themselves are not copyrightable.
