Spanish Resumen: Mediante el presente escrito se analizara, desde la optica del derecho de autor contemporaneo, la obra musical Habitacion 316 del compositor uruguayo Jorge Drexler y sus 10^23 fonogramas posibles al utilizar la aplicacion para dispositivos moviles “n / Jorge Drexler”. En la primera seccion se realizara una descripcion de la obra, y se senalaran las caracteristicas que merecen un estudio detallado desde el derecho de autor colombiano, los problemas juridicos que envuelve una obra de esta naturaleza — en materia de registro, titularidad originaria y otras situaciones que en la practica pueden ser problematicas — y las respuestas que se proponen desde el estudio realizado. En la segunda seccion se expone el marco teorico, se revisan los conceptos de obra abierta, obra musical, fonograma, obra compleja, obra audiovisual y obra multimedia para construir una teoria que pueda dar respuestas viables a los retos que trae la obra musical Habitacion 316 para la materia. En la tercera seccion se concluye sobre la titularidad originaria de las “applicanciones” respecto de la obra musical como de los derechos conexos sobre el fonograma.English Abstract: This document analyzes under contemporary intellectual property theories the musical composition “Habitacion 316” (also available in English as “Room 316”) by the Uruguayan singer-songwriter Jorge Drexler, and its possible 1023 sound recordings through the mobile app n/Jorge Drexler. The first section addresses the musical composition “Habitacion 316” and describes it in detail, underlining the complex situations that might rise following traditional intellectual property theories for a work of this nature — registration, ownership and other problematic issues — and proposes answers for this difficulties.The second section illustrates the theoretical framework used to build the answers in the first section. Reviews fundamental concepts like open-work, musical composition, sound recording, complex work, audiovisual work, and multimedia work to support a theory that embraces the challenges posed by “Habitacion 316”. Through the analysis of other types of artistic works achieved by the use of new technologies, like mash-ups, the author proposes to redefine the concept of sound recordings; of complex works, traditionally associated to a work created by multiple authors and not as a multiple-language work of art; and in this sense, redefine the limits of multimedia works.The third section studies the ownership of the different works involved in the app-song “Habitacion 316” and argues that the composer would be the singular owner of the copyright of the musical composition; so, if the mobile app creates the sound recording and the app’s code is essential for its existence and initial public communication, the ownership of the related rights of the sound recording would be shared equally with the mobile app developer.
