Reading10 Remix culture---CAI YAYU

 1.Summarize 

remix culture refers to the practice of creating new works by taking existing media, such as music, images and video, and modifying them in some way. This may involve combining elements of multiple works, reinterpreting existing content, or adding new elements to per-existing works. The resulting new work is often referred to as a 'remix'.
The emergence of digital technologies and the internet has facilitated the growth of remix culture, allowing individuals to easily access and manipulate existing media. Remix culture has been widely embraced in music, with DJs, producers, and musicians using samples, loops, and other techniques to create new music that builds on existing works. Remix culture has also extended to other forms of media, such as film, visual art, and literature.

2. Interesting point

In response to a more restrictive copyright regime (Sonny Bono Copyright Term Extension, DMCA), Lawrence Lessie founded Creative Commons in 2001 to begin to limit the burgeoning sharing and remixing activity on the web. in 2002, Creative Commons released a set of licensing agreements that allowed for a "partial rights reserved " rather than the usual "all rights reserved" for a balanced and fair distribution of creative works as a tool to support remix culture. Over the next few years, a number of companies and government organisations adapted this approach and licensing, for example Flickr, DeviantART and Europeana use or offer CC licensing options that allow remixing. There are several web pages discussing this remix culture, such as ccMixter, founded in 2004.

    There are legal frameworks in place that attempt to strike a balance between these two perspectives, such as fair use laws in the United States

 1. Summary The article argues that understanding Wikipedia requires appreciating its community and collaborative culture, but also recognizing the challenges it faces from personal differences and external threats. Despite its collaborative nature, Wikipedia has been shaped by authorial leadership, with an informal benevolent dictator guiding the community and mediating disputes. However, this leadership role can be challenging to balance, as new responsibilities and authority may arise. The article uses examples, such as Sanger's reflections on his departure from the community and discussions about Wales's role, to illustrate the delicate balance of leadership in the Wikipedia community. 2.

  1. Summary After reading this article, I understand that Wikipedia articles must have reliable sources, and the opinions in the sources should be neutral. Articles should be based on reliable, independent, published sources with a reputation for fact-checking and accuracy. This means that we publish only the analysis, views, and opinions of reliable authors, and not those of Wikipedians who have read and interpreted primary source material for themselves. 2. Interesting points News headlines—including subheadlines—are not a reliable source.  I think this is important because some news headlines are written to grab the reader's attention quickly and briefly; their news content may be exaggerated or lack context, and even sometimes contain sensational claims. 3. Discussion points Do you know how to test reliable sources?
