I was given the brief of incorporating a portrait with text, using the stories within as inspiration (and as the text that I used). I chose two stories, melded the characters together, and created my interpretation.

A world first! The first remixed and remixable anthology of literature.
This anthology of short stories is not some textual tome, frozen in time and space. It is alive, evolving organically in a constant state of flux. Why? Because each story is available under a Creative Commons licence, giving you rights to share and reuse the book as you see fit.
So how do you use a remixable anthology? Simple.
Step 1 - Read. Thumb your way through the pages at will. Find the
stories you love, the ones you hate, the ones that could be better.
Step 2 - Re/create. Each story is yours to share and to remix. Use only
one paragraph or character or just make subtle changes. Change the
genre, alter its formal or stylistic characteristics, or revise its
message. Use as little or as much as you like - as long as it works.
Step 3 - Share. Be part of a growing community of literature remixing. Post your remixes to the Remix My Lit website, remixmylit.com, and start sharing. The entire anthology can be remixed - the original stories, the remixes, and even the fonts.
Through the Clock's Workings is Read&Write!
The book is available to purchase from the Sydney University Press online e-store for $24.95 rrp AU.
