ABSTRACT

This chapter explores the dialogic nature of remix and its connection to parody; with particular attention to the role of parody remix in the realm of political discourse. It provides discussion on how remix operates within larger media ecology of samplings and citations, creating a more ambivalent form of appropriation that functions as pastiche. Parody always depends upon legible citations of an originating work in order to operate as such; remix parody, however, quite literally appropriates what it cites, placing words, sounds, and images into a dialogic relationship with one another that undermines the authority of any singular text. The "cut-up" provides a metaphor for the dialogic act of parody, or more precisely the creative freedom to place even the most sacred of received material within a "zone of crude contact" in which new relations between parts results in new discursive possibilities.
