Remixing Knowledge


I have been struggling finding remix projects that have to do with crime scene investigations. Even brochures and other websites are all the same with there descriptions and there graphs. So instead of finding a remix by a professional I decided to use a picture of a popular culture icon that shows a little something about criminal justice in a risky way. 




Revision- The picture shows how crime scene investigation is always portrayed in a fake way that is far from the reality of the job. This is perfect with Lady Gaga because it shows that someone with a fake and computerized voice will get the ratings just as the unreal portrayal of crime scene investigations. The creators of these shows and artist get wrapped in what sells and brands people off that not the truth.

Arrangement– Lady Gaga is portraying someone she is not and the tape around her also shows how crime scene investigation is wrapped around making fame.

Invention- The invention is that Lady Gaga is wrapped up in the crime scene tape around her.  It shows how risky she is willing to go and how the crime scene tape is taking as a joke.

Delivery- A screen shot of a part in a music video that shows her dressed up in crime scene tape.

Style-The style of this picture is very risqué, which appeals to American culture of sex appeal.

  1. I also had a hard finding a remix for my profession, but i think it is really cool how you tied in the aspect of hollywood portrayal not being reality. Keep up the good work!

  2. This was a great example of a remix. You obviously have great understanding of what a remix is. I agree with the above post from Omer as well about incorporating the use of Hollywood in your blog as well. With you being interested in Crime Scene Investigation, do you think this picture is a negative image or something positive towards your field?
