<strong><b style><font face="Arial"><span style="font-family:Arial">moderated by Miriam Aziz. </span></font></b></strong>A
remix in literature can be as simple as an alternative version of a text or as
complex as cut-ups, literary collages, or multimedia retellings of literary
works. R remix in literature has a history as long as that of literature
itself. Nearly all of Shakespeare’s plots were “borrowed” (i.e. repurposed,
retold, remixed) from other sources. In the 1920s, Tristan Tzara advocated a
Dadaist poetry-writing technique of cutting up newspapers and rearranging the
pieces. In the 1950s, the Situationist International (SI) developed the
technique of détournement in which entire novels were cut up and
recontextualized in order to turn media and capitalist culture against
itself.  William Burroughs used Bryon Gysin’s cut-up technique to remix
language in the 60s. The tools of today’s digital culture makes it easy for
artists to sample and manipulate selected source material through their own
theoretical and artistic filters, with the resulting explosion of creativity
engendering accusations of piracy and plagiarism. </span></font></p>
