Group 10: Remixology
This project explaines the history of remixing songs and the ethical or unethical path people take. Remixing songs has a main concern of copyright or stealing other work from the original producer and making it your own.
In the powerpoint I had a lot of technical difficulties and the program would not download my voice recordings. I explained the slides in more detail via my recordings but for some reason it would not transfer. Sorry for the inconvenience.

Remixing is definitely a nuanced topic, especially considered that several popular music generes today originated from remixing or scratching on records (hiphop/rap/R&B) and then those music generes became further remixed within each other.
Great presentation. I learned a lot about remixing from your work. I also agree that you should get permission before remixing others work.
I enjoyed learning about this topic, as I was unaware of the rules around copyrights. You made some very good points about the ethical issues associated with remixing.
This topic was really interesting, and good job on the presentation. I think that permission is necessary if someone is going to make a remix, but I don't think the idea of remixing itself is ethically wrong. It is just another form of creative expression.
Nice presentation! Remixing is very controversial. I agree, I believe that you should have to get permission to remix someone else's work.
Group 10:
I think the point about getting permission is really important. Especially with technology continuing to join in on the music side of things, receiving permission and not using others work is an important thing that needs to be remembered and used by all people creating.
I listen to a lot of music from DJs and I never really thought about how they incorporate so many other songs into their music. I found this presentation to be really interesting as I can relate to it everytime I listen to music. The line between copywriting and remixing is so thin and many listeners don't realize that. Great job Group 10!
Remixing is definitely a tough subject. But i think since they are technically a different song, no permissions are required .
You made a good point, I think it is ethically right for remixers to get permission from the original artist before using their track. It makes me think about all of the hip hop songs I listen to that sample beats/verses from like alternative rock bands.
Hi Claire! You made some great points about the ethical issues that are brought about with remixing songs by other artists. I had trouble figuring out how to put my voiceover on my Prezi as well. I don't know if we had the same issue, but I had to go into iTunes and convert my voice recording from whatever format it was recorded in, to MPEG format. I found a youtube video about it. I know it's a little late, but if you have to do something like this in the future, maybe it'll help!
