"What is writing? What is remix? Is there a connection between the two?"

In my first blog post, I defined writing as the act of expressing and idea or sharing information through the use of written language. I defined remix as an imitation or transfomation or combination of different pieces of literature to create a new piece of literature; examples range from music, to books, movies, and more. I said the connection between writing and a remix is "that the idea can originate through writing it down, and writing can also be a part of the process to create a remix". I still think these are good definitions and an accurate description of the connection. However, I've learned that writing can also be a form of a remix. Not all writing is based on original ideas, in fact, almost everything in one way or another is a remix.
