CAT 2 Lecture Notes - Lecture 10: I Shot Andy Warhol, Cory Arcangel, Roy Lichtenstein
Document Summary
Even when something is considered as original, sometimes it can have some thoughts or values borrowed from others. The content is new but the form is plain (like dali and his melting clocks) or the form is very new and the content is very boring. The form and content become these two levers that the artists keep thinking about and create original, unusual and weird work. Remix: just something small is going to be different about it, basically an innovation. Make sth old into sth new and interesting and relevant again. Grandmaster flash: invented the technique to find a moment on a record where there was only a drum solo. Innovation occurring through sth borrowed, these records were not recorded by him, he is using them to recreate sth new. Reformed, sped up, edited to recreate new music, used as material to create sth new.
