T&D11: “Everything Is A Remix, Everything!”
7 Jun, at 7.
The Pigeonhole 

Event description

think&drink11 is an exploratory dive into the world of “Remix Culture”: the appropriation of seemingly unrelated ordinary ideas and combining them in unexpected ways to create the incredibly unconventional.
“[Today] anybody can remix anything. Music, video, photos, whatever, and distribute it globally pretty much instantly. You don’t need expensive tools, you don’t need a distributor, you don’t even need skills. Remixing is a folk art — anybody can do it. Yet these techniques, collect the material, combining it and transforming it, are the same ones you use at any level of creation. You could even say that everything is a remix.” – Kirby Ferguson

We’ll start with a screening of “Everything is a Remix” by Kirby Ferguson, a thrilling 40min romp through combinatorial creativity that joyously deconstructs familiar cultural icons from music, film, technological innovation, and attempts to distill the fundamental elements of creativity.

Hi Hisham,
Sounds like an interesting session. I can't make it though. if anyone here is attending hope you can mention about CC-SG ad that we're looking for ideas for "10 days of CC".

I've watched some segments of Kirby's net releases. Good stuff!
Cheers
Ivan
