Abstract

This article analyzes digital recycling as a cultural strategy through which it is possible to recognize the dialogue between popular digital culture and the most avant-garde electronic creation. Due to its experimental nature, electronic creation provides conceptual and aesthetic strategies to understand and analyze digital cultural processes. This work analyzes the processes in which recycling becomes a protagonist. The strategy of cultural recycling is not novel. It proposes a reconfiguration of the viewer's gaze in front of the work that starts from the historical avant-garde and has a critical intention towards the concept of authorship, the canon, and originality of creative processes. Nevertheless, through the study of the characteristics of the digital ecosystem, we show how the practice of recycling changes considerably, acquiring great prominence and becoming a defining feature of digital cultural behavior today through the naturalization and automation of its processes.
