Remix and Remixability
Lev Manovich discusses some cultural and historical aspects of remixing. He stresses that remixing is nothing new, but it is the way that cultures evolve. Only the quantity of remixing is changing now. And that is basicly due to the tools.
A very nice overview. I like the idea that remixing allows the creation of new paths for content, where it was previously fixed into set paths. The idea that "content must not be locked into the design in order to make remixing easier", is nice.
