Media Deconstruction
The art of the mash up is one of the key components of the new media landscape, people combining different pieces of material, creating new works and new meanings.
An interesting clip has appeared on YouTube, a deconstruction of The Beatles recording of Seargent Pepper's Lonley Hearts Club Band, seperated back to it's individual pieces, a guitar track, vocals, additional guitars and orchestration. It's not remixed, it been un-mixed, deconstructed. Now it will be very easy for it to be put together in different configurations.
It's a stragely compeling thing to listen to, as if you were standing in a recording studio with John Lennon and Paul McCartney listening to the track bleed through the headphones as they record the vocals.
