Everything is a Remix Remastered

The composition process for people in different industries such as artists, scientists, and movie producers is a complicated process that borders plagiarizing and need for citation. Kirby Ferguson explores this concept in his TEDTalk video titled Everything is a Remix Remastered in 2015. He proposes that no composition is ever truly and that even some of the most heralded art pieces are transformation of other people’s idea. The process of creation and composition is significantly dependent on the ability to reproduce a different version of the art piece, text, or product. Personally, I am guilty of using other people’s work as inspiration and noted in many movies or songs in which the producers and artists respectively copied from other people. The extent of plagiarism in the society is ingrained even in situations which often mirror one another.

Plagiarism of content is often unintended in some situations as the human brain is capable of storing huge amounts of information sometimes even when conscious brain part is unaware. These ideas emerge later as part of the composition process that blurs the line between original creativity and remixing. Kirby Ferguson suggests that instead of looking at remix as plagiarism, we instead incorporate the three elements of creativity ion the composition process; copy, transform, and combine. Perhaps, people are likely to view remixes as plagiarism since the word was coined in the late last century by musical performers.
