Remix Culture: Addendum  Remix Culture at it's finest and funniest.  These people have taken cspan coverage and newscasters, auto-tuned their voices, added a backing beat and created an amazing song.  This is not the funniest but it is the most pc of their videos.  I don't think any of their videos would be offensive to most adults.  "Turtles," is probably my fav.

Remix Culture: Part 1 of 3. At about 8 minutes this is a great intro to remix culture.  What is remix culture?  From my point of view, it is the recontextualization of information which results in increased meaning.  By drawing upon part of our shared cultural heritage (a song or video) and mashing it up with either another part of our shared culture or content created by yourself (or friends),  people are now able to leverage both content areas to make ultra rich content. Kind of like when you watch "The Wizard of Oz" and listen to "Dark Side of the Moon"

Remix Culture: Part 2 of 3. I Love Ted Talks! This video is about the legal evolution of remix culture, as told by the man who fights tirelessly for creative commons licensing.  About 20 min.

Remix Culture Part 3 of 3.  This is the epicenter of the new legal apparatus arising surrounding remix culture.  Here you can License your work or find work to remix.

This is an excellent resource for preteaching or reateaching a concept in many different disciplines. Also a great resource for students who would like to review at home. It's All Free!
