Not only do sampling techniques such as collage, patchwork, and erasure invite us to rethink authorship, but also they are fun! Creativity is unavoidable, even when constructing texts out of other works. In this workshop, we will learn techniques for borrowing text, reconfiguring it, and reinvigorating the spirit of play in our writing. We will revisit the ideas of modernism and the Oulipo—founders of the school of constraints—for the digital age. We will practice making collaborative literature from existing texts, highlighting the authorial decisions involved at each step.
