The main focus of this paper will be on the ideological and political dimension of critical remix practices. It will focus on appropriation as the ideological strategy of certain remix practices. A working definition of appropriation will be derived from one of the most influential publications on the topic by Julie Sanders. This understanding of appropriation will then be contextualized in the field of remix studies.
