The Great Gatsby Remix Chapter 1

Remix: arrangement or transformation of creativity

       In chapter one we see that the main character is Nick Caraway we see that he mentions the well judgement of his father we also notice his lack of social connections and upper class. We see that he drives to the East Egg and has dinner with her cousin Daisy and her husband Tom, we also see that the book embraces racism (white racial- group) we notice that they have dinner then at the very end we see that Nick sees Gatsby.

              " green light that mark at the end of a dock"

Remix:

          If we embrace the idea that the summary above is the way that the introduction of the book happens that way but.......what if......... if the book had a different perspective if the main character for example was Daisy and her husband Tom how would the author interpret that situation. 

What would the author create, transform, arrange from the situation and the point of view, introduction?

My Remix Idea:

A remix is to combine or edit existing materials to produce something new. My idea is a movie and events that occur for a reason. Just like remix it is an arrangement or a transformation of creativity.

Any movie that we watch has a remix:

Everything is a Remix

"Music as literature"

Yes we can consider music as literature because music has common sense and represents the different type of background and identity's that singer and artist describe to show their perspectives and different body texts; for example poetry. Poetry is a big role in music because many rappers and other types of genre use it to rhyme for example many rap songs have a lot of rhymes at the end of their verse. So if rappers use poetry in a way that they use songs to express their emotions and how they use the structure of life and course of history, it really just is literature. American Literature!
