Below is documentation from a workshop titled "Expanded Remix", dealing with the ways in which remixing works, and how it can be extended to other art practices, cultural processes, and other non-art ideas.
The main goal of the workshop was to promote dialog about the remix as an idea. Rather than catalog, which is a process of finding the limits of something, we engaged in a process of expanding the idea of remix. Assignments ranged from documentation of the city through walking, iterative projects, and video game hacking.
In addition, during the week the class built a wiki to add ideas, artists, and other resources around the idea of expanded remix. This became a resource and a forum for exploration and, due to the edit-ability of the wiki format, students remixed each other's ideas by placing images and texts in strategic (and often funny) locations.
