Remix Culture

I understand remixing to be creating something new out of it's original content. In other words, taking a piece of media which has been altered from its original state by adding or removing pieces of the item. Creating new content from things that are present in front of you. Its changing material to create new things. An example of remixing content would be a dancer adding new moves into her routine dance for a certain song to bring more life to it. It would allow others to view her dancing in a different way.

The purpose of this assignment was to realize that much of what we see on social media are remix content. Social media is the place to show the remix content that you make. The key question at the heart of this assignment is "Do you remix content?"

  2. Aloha Bernadette, (babies look beautiful), Your statement " In other words, taking a piece of media which has been altered from its original state by adding or removing pieces of the item." had clarity because you had a clear explanation relating to the topic to support your initial statement of what you thought remixing was.

  3. Hey Bernadette,
    You were very accurate when you stated "I understand remixing to be creating something new out of it's original content. In other words, taking a piece of media which has been altered from its original state by adding or removing pieces of the item. Creating new content from things that are present in front of you. Its changing material to create new things." taking an original piece and altering it in anyway is remixing. Awesome work...
