Erri Ammonita prepared a collection of songs and sound files which they copied on 19 used cassette tapes decorated with found letters. Together with the four stories, this prompt brings up some of the many layers of reuse that are part of making music.

This booklet tells four stories about music pieces that are collected inside the re:re:re:er:ri mixtape, which might be in your hands as well.

It is a contribution to think along with the CC4r license about the ethics and politics of re-use, through music.

Each story engages with (and sometimes provides a possible answer to) one of the following questions:

  • How to collectively resist appropriation outside of legal frameworks?
  • What type of reuse is the indiscriminate and automated one brought on by machinic processes? Why and how to take collective stances towards it?
  • Can reuse without consent of "original authors" happen in a response-able and critically implicated manner?
  • How does something stereotypical, offensive and mercenary get turned into something empowering empowering and radical, and vice versa?
