This book discusses a lot of subjects such as racism, homophobia, creating your own narrative, and learning to love the skin you are in. This remix is worth reading. This my dream casting - Gabriel : Caleb McLaughlin from Stranger Things Henry: Diggy Simmons from Grownish #queer #bl #remix #jekyll #poc

First book of my July reading goal - I have wanted to read this book. This is the 4th book I have read from this author. I am sure there will be twist and turns. I excited how a classic can be remixed! #july #bdaymonth #remix #jekyll #hyde #blackqueer #queervoices

The examples are dated. Digital content, technologies and how we interact, play, learn, create on this great universe of the Internet changes constantly but the basic principles of Lessig argument are interesting and do make clear that the Read Only industry has had its hour of glory and that the RW (Read Write) generation enabled by digital technologies will change the business models. #nonfiction #rec
3⭐️ because it's 10 years old.

Lennon, McCartney and Harrison grew as artists through remixing others works, especially classical works and made something different. Stars on 45 did the same to them, fandom does it through vids, fanfics, graphic arts. Remix is as old as human's creativity. Corporations may try to control it but it's kinda hopeless. We, the people, will still write, draw, play with stories, art works. You can't kill creativity. #heyjune

Dear Reader is a take on Wuthering Heights. It was just as bad in audio as in print. Could not finish! But I loved Wuthering Heights. Maybe the bar was too high? #bookblogger #bookish #remix #audio #booknerd #audiobook

anhistorianabouttown I found the same for the Jane Austen Project books- SO disappointing 6y
PictureandBook @anhistorianabouttown totally! That book was also super disappointing. Next month I am going to churn through more of the remixes to find the good ones. I did love Longbourn 6y

Remix 1: Texte 1996-1999 | Benjamin v Stuckrad-Barre

As I already mentioned, I rediscovered Stuckrad-Barre after, I would say, almost 15 years of absence. I loved this book which is a compilation of his articles, written at the end of the 90ies. I was laughing so much. And I'm totally hooked by the cover.

OMG I totally forgot how funny Stuckrad-Barre is writing. He was one of my favourite authors during high school. I just rediscovered some of his books. I'll try to translate the prologue: "This book is fun, the author just sometimes, most of the texts are, but some of them are evil, a lot of them are both.... Some texts have been edited (sound! rhythm! chorus!)..."

Had a tooth operation yesterday, have a swollen cheek today. 🤕 The only good thing about that? I can stay at home till Friday and can start (and hopefully finish) some of new books of my #tbrlist. Really looking forward to that. 😍 By the way I'm drinking my coffee with a straw! 😂

MariaW @Jas16 Thanks! 😊 7y
LeahBergen The Egyptian is an old favourite of mine! The Oxford Book of Victorian Ghost Stories is great, too. 😀 7y

mjdowens Hope you heal up quick. Better out than in (although I don't think that was to be applied to teeth)😂😂 7y
Graciouswarriorprincess Hope that you have a speedy recovery! Hugs! 7y
MariaW @mjdowens @Graciouswarriorprincess thanks, you two! 😊😊😊 7y
MariaW @LeahBergen Although I've read plenty of books about Egypt in general and a lot of novels taking place there, I've never read Sinuhe before. Seems a bit weird to me since I'm leaving for Egypt in August. I'm really looking forward to read that one. 😊 7y
