On plagiarism everyday
Our attention has been irreversibly captured by information and communications technology. Scrolling through a device is what we do all day long, often mindlessly, to find whatever it is we are already looking for. We download or stream a song, article, book or movie instantly, get through it—or not—and move to the next immaterial thing. We skim, bookmark, copy, cut, paste, and forward. We post, repost, insta, and regram in all directions at all times. In fact, digital media trains us to be not only high-bandwidth consumers but content producers at no cost....
On plagiarism everyday intended to slow down from rapid-fire online publication. Instead, it focused on off-line publishing aesthetics and, in an age of memes, on a set of editorial strategies of reproduction—such as sampling, duplication, plagiarism, recycling, ciphering, to name a few—in order to observe the relationship between a thing and its mediated repetition. By appropriating a publication in print, an existing form eventually got translated into a personal selection, in a print-on-demand assembly of paper and ink, with a spine and double spreads.
