ABSTRACT
Chapter 3, “Sampling and Creativity,” focuses on the reinterpretation of previously existing concepts and material forms for creative production. The open guidelines for this chapter are designed to explore how new content is developed. The creative processes that make new content possible are material sampling and cultural citation. Understanding how creativity takes place based on sampling and citation is important in order to consider how what an individual may produce is a unique instantiation—an intensity of many things that come together at one point to present a concrete object (material or immaterial) that is then contemplated or put to use, depending on the object’s purpose and cultural value.
