Hi Chris.

From a fellow resident of Denney Hall- what do you mean by post- postmodern? And if so, can we give it another name? Blenderism, perhaps? Cut-and-paste-ism? Hm. Honestly, I am still trying to grasp postmodernism.

Sincerely,
Kristin Sullivan

Hi Kristin.

I was mostly joking when I wrote "post-postmodernism" :)

For me, the key terms for this practice are mashup & remix.

My concise definition of remix would be: the reorganizing, reworking, or rearranging of an existing text using only the elements present in the original source material.

My concise definition of mashup would be: combining elements of two or more separate original source texts.

Thanks for stopping by and for commenting!
