So there’s this game.  Take a story and build upon it.  The remix, on the other hand, says what’s the back story.  What’s the prequel.  What really led up to this character Joe the Clown.  And leave out the Jar Jar Binks, or in this case, Victoria Powers. ….

This was a fun remix that required me to make an assignment really cheesy, in this case a ringtone assignment.  I chose to use one by erinrougeux because she used sounds rather than splicing a song.  It made for a more original work and gave me a bit more room for creativity.  With some of ...
