This document discusses replica practices in media texts. It defines replica practices as shared procedures of invention that draw from memories and archives to produce new hybrid texts. These practices embody consolidated production and consumption processes within texts. Texts are fixed products while practices are interactive processes. Practices can reopen old texts to generate new ones, and texts can generate new practices. Replica practices produce trans-textual hybrids through modularity and borrowing from other media like TV formats. Examples discussed include director's cuts, cover songs, remixes, and The Matrix which was composed of heterogeneous elements from different media.
