Remixing Shakespeare
b'New technologies are enabling forms of borrowing, appropriation and \\u201cremixing\\u201d of media materials in exciting, provocative ways. In this Forum, two MIT scholars who have studied and written about the remixing of Shakespeare will describe their research, show some salient audio-visual examples and discuss the implications of their work for contemporary culture. Literature Professor Peter Donaldson is director of the Shakespeare Electronic Archive which since 1992 has used computers to develop new ways of studying the text, image and film records of Shakespearean publication and production. Literature Professor Diana Henderson is the author of Collaborations with the Past: Reshaping Shakespeare Across Time and Media and A Concise Companion to Shakespeare on Screen. She is an active participant in MIT\\u2019s partnership with the Royal Shakespeare Company. The forum will be moderated by Mary Fuller of the Literature Faculty.'
