Writing Across Media
Attendance (7/22-)
** Rationale
Make sure that you look at the comments I left for you in the audio and visual
Apply them
Look up in text citations, on Purdue owl
Varying sentence structure- (X) the, noun // (O) take the verb that you are using and start with verb–ing
Apply notes to everywhere
Every source that I reference, you refer to present, active voice
Readable, make a story
When you include source, need two direct quotes: each of these quotes should be from two different sources. How does that quote interact with your project. What does your sample do in relation to your work.
Important: Reflection and Theory
Write in line in your reflection about what you can do or what ways this project influences your remix ideas. What would you do differently.
(X) we, you(why: you don’t know the reader), do not overgeneralize (1. Bad form, 2. Doesn’t tell me anything.)
Give me details. After quote, right after explain to your readers what that quote means to you. Explain what vocab means. (e.g. successful), stay away from cliché
When you start with This: this is why… use different words, refer.
Be specific.
Relate it back to reading.
Never forget to include “so what”
Get used to defend yourself. Defend your choices. As an artist’s statement/POV. Brilliant work.
Switching medium, generation, layers, why on the internet, why it is popular.
Explain rhetorical positioning. What appeals to who and why.
----
people are more involved because of social media vs. one story in the past

how: change it through delivery (has genres), content (altering image, song, forms), taking aesthetic/style, appeal to a different audience demographic
----
capital O originality

246 pg. From my view, intercultural dialogue moves beyond multicultural policies by cultivating conditions that allow for creative tensions in the spirit of respect for differences. In other words, interculturalism is.... participants and their lived experiences.
248 pg. Collaborative filmmaking unsettles, challenges, and ultimately seeks to change universal perspectives. It does so by refusing to gaze at.... instead looks alongside participants of a community
voyeurism in film, media; distant but able to enjoy and exploit people
distant audience. get to look down at people. distance that dehumanize the subject for pleasure
in order to measure voyeurism, laura mulvey's essay as a citation. bechdel test
unsettling an expectation, collaboration is not just about you and partner.
Collaborative products: calling on the history that are embedded in the content, tools, and genre of whatever you are working with.
Bechdel's book
perception: lived knowledge and experience
once you immerse yourself, engage rather than barrier, or voyeuring, it often changes your relationship and positionality.

7/24
Attendance: Pull at least one question about the remix prompt
For blog extension, should I expand all eight blog posts, or just two blog posts that I am going to use for the remix project?
-> two
---
-> don't erase the original post. show a before and after.
-> can write how it's hard to write

** Remix
cultural jamming taking a massage and altering it
bricolage, revamp, repurpose, co-opt, reclaim
deal with allusion to social and cultural knowledge
golden girl. altering the meaning. known symbol and putting into a new context
Watch the video! The basic elements of creativity: copy, transform, combine
synthesized composition product
obama hook picture / golden girl gospel remix
layering shadow conversations
subverting expectation of remix
7/25
switching genres
uncanny: something familiar but not
cannon expectations: the classics of something, the fundamental
pull something familiar
best to something well known and recognizable
remix & co-authorship
shadow conversation, layers
TED: unfair competition for valuable
remix : copy transform combine
better way to conceive a creativity
loss aversion: great artist steal works but not from me
"creativity comes from within not from without, we are dependent" 9... ted talk
"combining existences with sharing 5:05 mark ronson"
same as positionality
collaborative, remix of conversations
remix definition .. at the beginning of hw video
sampling
remixing is folk art
credit, citing what your sample is, citations are map, giving somebody else credit,
cite that voices you know, giving credit is the difference between stealing and remixing, citations are key with legal system and school system, not separating it with citation marks is to note that something's changing. clear distinction between your own words and someone else's,
education / corporation legal liability
create new things from the old, small details makes it different.
for every artists, everybody who composes, you want to be different and innovative. But no one has your experiences, no one else will write in your same way. because of your different positionality, background.
even if someone got the same physical marking, it's remixing
even though it's on her, it doesn't belong to her.
everything is 'o'riginal, slightly different, impossible to have something that's not original
remixes are original works
