Remixability

I read the remixability article and I find it vey interesting. At first it reminded me about Napster and how the recording labels tried to accuse them of stealing money from musicians and artists, then I realized that it doesn't have anything to do with that. In this capatalist society we are filled with the idea that we always need to be making a buck and anything that we create should be labeled as our own, copyrighted and only given out for the right price.

Remixiblity throws the entire idea out the window. Information, ideas, creation in every form in this day in age is faster than any marketing model or business plan can come up with. In a society where photogragphy is created on a drunken walk to a bar simply with the use of a cell phone, there is no controlling it. People in this day in age are being able to capture their ideas and creations faster and easier because of the technology available.

What comes next is the interesting part. Is it all too much for our society to keep up with? Maybe for those without a computer in the household, but certainly not for the 6yr old who will grow up playing kids games online. The information will continue to grow as users become more and more comfortable and familiar with what is available. As more and more people become familar with how they can make an input into the system or information, the more we will see the information change and form into something new. The more remixability occurs, the more spectacular the creation will become. The amount and type of art online has changed whithin the past ten years tremendously. Now just imagine if whithin the next ten years, that many more people became familiar with using flash and gained the knowledge from the past, wow, now that will be some great work.

I love the idea of remixibility and I love the fact that I have the chance to be a part of it and actually acknowledge its existence.
