Everything is a Remix

Everyone who has ever become famous from something has been through a remix.  People build on each others' ideas.  It takes more than one person to invent.  Xerox created the first computer, but Mac released the second- Mac was the remix!  Even the computer that I am using right now is a remix.  It took a team of people to create these computers. It starts with an idea, but there must be a brainstorm to grow that idea into a product. The remix process is a three step process- Copy, transform, and combine.  It's all a form of plagiarizing and citing. Creativity is at the heart of everything people do, write, and make.
