>How can you express something with such a cold medium like technology.
Digital world can be a cold age I suppose. Though I think that I do not like a lot of remixing I think it itself is something that can be more than just lazy or cold, technological process. Look at this:

It is merely a PMV, yet, unlike a parade of random clips ,vectors and special effects it actually tells a bit of a story. The clips, some pretty good editing and special effects and choice of song make something that is utterly haunting. The song I do no care for in any other context and is not quite my style of music yet I love it here. A meaning was added for me. Something that only exist in this mixing up of content.

Even a lazy effort can still be something too. See this?

Truth be told there is not much to it at first glance. Just screencaps with dialog added and rarely small edits. I have sometimes ran into this series in the past and never really thought much of it. I mean, it's just screencaps with the plot of a RPG campaign, not really my cup of tea. And then I found this series a few months ago and was shocked to see it still running and it apparently having been having weekly updates since 2011 . Is using screencaps lazy? Yes. Would I call this Lazy? Not sure I could with over 1000 updates and what must be at least a half decent story to have comments on nearly every page.

So while I do agree that most remixing is nothing to brag about and even when it has a bit of effort can feel hollow, it can be a work of art on it's own merit.

>the more this looks like songs of electronic music to me.
If it's not wub wub dubstep and electronic house dance beats I can enjoy it sometimes.
