Everything Is A Remix

Everything Is A Remix is the first in a four-part online series that attempts to find links between remixes in popular culture and remixes in song. It is an ongoing project for New York-based filmmaker, Kirby Ferguson, who explains his understanding of the art-form on his Official Vimeo Channel:

“Remixing is a folk art but the techniques involved — collecting material, combining it, transforming it — are the same ones used at any level of creation. You could even say that everything is a remix.”

(Watch now, as I take the same words, run them through an English-to-Japanese-to-English translation service, AND CREATE MY OWN REMIX. AWWW YEA.)

“Remix, folk art technology involved – gather material, combined with it are changing it – at any level will be used to create the same. You also can say all the remixes.”
