 The discussion of writing imitating what we read had me thinking about the video series Everything is a Remix. In four videos, it covers how various forms of creation (music, films, books, technology, etc.) are based on ideas of copying, transforming, and combining.

I found it to be an interesting look at the creation of culture and inventions. A few of the many examples include rock/rap/music sampling, Star Wars and Kill Bill, the creation of the Macintosh, and the copying of books, music, and software. (Sidenote: If you watch it, be sure to watch after the credits. The videos are about 8-10 minutes long, but the filmmaker runs the credits halfway through, and then restarts with another, equally interesting subject.)
