As Eduardo Navas writes:

This particular dynamic is actually an extension of sampling... because "writing" is no longer seen as something truly original, but as a complex act of resampling and reinterpreting material previously introduced, which is obviously not innovative but expected in new media. Acts of appropriation are also acts of sampling...
