remixthecontext is a cunning and satirical collection of
"theoretical fictions" composed by artist, novelist and media
theorist Mark Amerika. A compelling riff on the classic Platonic
dialogue, Amerika's remixthecontext features Walt Whitman Benjamin,
a Professor of Creative Urgency who intellectually jams with an
assemblage of characters that resemble the actual artists, poets,
and scholars who populate the university cafe culture depicted in
the book. Each chapter is enlivened by Amerika's provocative
mash-up of literary metafiction, new media rhetoric and witty
repartee setting the stage for a series of freewheeling exchanges
that playfully investigate a multitude of themes including remix
culture, psychic automatism, gender fluidity, social media
dystopia, MOOCs as performance art, and the challenges presented by
cutting-edge digital arts and humanities curricula within a
sclerotic academic environment.
