Now we are not unfamiliar with the idea of remix in music. Now the time has come for us to once again the same is introduced in literature. Today we live in a different world than the world of Milton. Even if a poet writes loftily like Milton, or if someone writes great epics like Paradise Lost he cannot get readers the way Milton got. That era is over and today people have a different choice and different interest. Shakespeare, Homer, Milton' s works are read as they are optional subjects in college.
That is we as writers must be readers centric when it comes to writing or doing some creative works. A product must sell whether it is literature or cloth-line or any other objects. The market matters greatly as they mattered very less those days.
The success of a literary piece depends not only upon the commendation of a commentator or critic but the mass who read it. Of course a literary piece must be valued in the scales of the interests of its readers. Taking this point into account it is always the reader that shapes or determines what kind of literature must be composed.
Now we can introduce remix into literature also and a piece can have many tastes at the same, a little poetry, a little fiction and many one piece. Of course purists have different notions or different points of view about this.
It does not deteriorate the literariness of the piece and we can simply experiment with this.
After all it is art that matters ultimately and if we can keep it up in a remix it will be really amazing. It will be catalytic.
I want people to share their ideas or responses to this.
