* '''Atul:''' One might argue that the most basic form of remix is actually "view source": looking at what someone else made and putting it in your page--either by blindly copy-pasting it, or by learning from it and using your new skills in your own work. While webmaking may be ''possible'' without this, it's certainly a lot harder and a lot less fun--and also makes the Web seem no different from less transparent platforms like iOS. | * '''Atul:''' One might argue that the most basic form of remix is actually "view source": looking at what someone else made and putting it in your page--either by blindly copy-pasting it, or by learning from it and using your new skills in your own work.

* '''Jess:''' +1 Atul and Michelle. Personally, i feel that remixing is the number one "skill" that we can teach anyone. This is why it is the first concept that we unpack in the Hackasaurus hack jams. Remixing is a skill that easily translates into other "worlds" (that is in addition to the world wide web). While this is one of the core concepts of the 'open web' and what makes the web unique, expertise in remixing gives a learner the ability to be inspired, tinker, hack and contribute to the conversation of whatever field or medium they are working in. | |||
