Dear Mom and Dad,
This week was all about remixing and mashups. It was awesome and I learned a lot about the art of remix. It’s not a simple as it looks. Nor as new as most people think. The biggest thing I am taking out of this week is just how far back “remixing” really goes and how many genres of life it can touch. Like in Everything is a Remix,

shows us that everday objects are not original genius, but the result of remixing. Such as the laptop, reality is the origin of these common appliances is xerox, which most people today associate with copy machines. The cars made by Henry Ford, were combining many different technologies together to get the mass produced and affordable car.
To create remixing online, there are many ways to start. Yet, it boils down to extreme video editing. Adding in music and combine other images, text, or audio. With all of this mixed together, you get an amazing work of genius. Many popular things today are rooted in a remix of two or more former works.

Mixing it up,
Jolie
