Joycelyn Wilson: Hacking Hip Hop, Kartoniert / Broschiert

Klappentext

Hacking Hip Hop is a methodological memoir and critical study that positions Hip Hop as a powerful system of design thinking. Drawing on autoethnography, cultural analysis, and more than two decades of teaching and research, Joycelyn Wilson introduces "Design Remix Logic" (DRL) to capture how Hip Hop works as a remix system--for culture, sound, memory, and media--to create meaning and spark innovation.

Grounded in the aesthetics of Black expressive traditions, the book affirms that DRL is practiced by Hip Hop natives as well as those inspired by its methods--across disciplines, geographies, and identities. Employing such resources as OutKast as hermeneutic, Kendrick Lamar as ideological lens, and the evolution of Southern Hip Hop archives, Wilson shows how DRL can be used as an analytical tool and a pedagogical method.

Written for scholars, educators, music enthusiasts, and artists, Hacking Hip Hop moves from what Hip Hop is to how Hip Hop works as a design language that builds new worlds while preserving the stories that shape our own.
