5_3 Reading Take-aways


1. In a sense, everything we do is a "remix" of something. Does that mean we need to be more like a "pre-existing" elements and be original?

2. Being able to think outside-of-the-box on simple words like "writing". When you are "remixing" you are expressing your ideas/thoughts...simply put telling a story. And you write to tell a story. For my generation, like the article states, writing includes a pen and paper and physically writing with text. But by producing  images, sound, and video you are telling a story, just in a technologically advanced way. For example, one of the popular social media application is Snapchat. Kids are using Snapchat to "write" a story and express their ideas.

3. Creating serviceware mashup section reminded me how remixing is changing material to create something new. Mashup in a way helped create jobs like UI and UX designers.
