Blog Post #9

For my final assignment I believe I will focus on the importance of assemblage vs. copying or plagiarism. Plagiarism has often been such a scary subject when it comes to my writing. Until taking this course I didn't realize how much in inhibited my creativity and created a disconnect in my work. I would love to write about how learning more about assemblage and remixing has allowed me to trust my own words more and freed my creativity. I would also like to pull from Richards article about "The Interinanimation of Words" and Bolter and Grussin's introduction to the "Double Logic of Remediation". Remediation was originally difficult to comprehend, but once I was clear on its definition, the concept really helped my writing.
