This document discusses a research project that aims to augment audiovisual archives by including immigrants in remix practices. The researcher proposes exploring how cultural diasporas could enrich and interpret audiovisual cultural heritage through new media strategies to support social inclusion. The project would involve workshops with immigrants and students to develop interface prototypes and tools for remixing content from the EUscreenXL archive, which aggregates audiovisual content from across Europe. The discussion section considers issues around supporting multiculturalism through media, empowering people through video remix, and ethics when working with vulnerable populations.

4. IMMIGRANTS
&
INCLUSION
There are
and
there will be
always immigrants.
But the ones that
migrate are
only a
small proportion of
the population.
(Saskia Sassen,
1999)
Underused creative capacity of
immigrants-‐>
design research posibility
to stage participation,
create disensus and
intervene in
the political
order (Kashavarz &

9. REMIX
Remix
definition:
separating
and
recombining
many
types
of
media
including
images,
video,
literary
text,
and
video
game
assets.
It
is
a
form
of
creativity.
Is
is
a
culture
of
“rip
and
create”
Fagerjord (2010)
RIP! A Remix Manifesto
10. “Our
culture
no
longer
bothers
to
use
words
like
appropriation or
borrowing to
describe
those
very
activities.
Today's
audience
isn't
listening
at
all
-‐ it's
participating.
Indeed,
audience is
as
antique
a
term
as
record,
the
one
archaically
passive,
the
other
archaically
physical.
The
record,
not
the
remix,
is
the
anomaly
today.
The
remix
is
the
very
nature
of
the
digital”
(Gibson,
2005).
12. Remix practices serve as
a way to contextualize
records (making them
part of new entities) and
decentralize curation
(remixers
reconsider which videos
will be reuse).

13. Remixers are not perceived as
possessive.They want to
share their content and have
it remixed or appropriated by
others (Dikopoulus et al,
2007).This is a different
approach in respect on how
archives relate to their
content.

14. The
ability
to
share
movies
and
feel
part
of
the
online
community
is
perceived
as
central
motivation
for
creating.
