Remix Sarah Palin
A remix contest created with MixMatchMusic's remix contest widget lets anyone re-sequence sound bites from the former Miss Alaska contender to make it sound as if the words are strung together in some sort of intentional order.
You can either use MixMatchMusic's own online remix tool to do this, but more advanced remixers will want to download the stems and import them into digital audio workstation software where they can be combined with beats and music. So far, the most popular remixes in the contest are all a capella, but entrants have strung together a few amusing sentences so far nonetheless.
If only there were a way for politicians' speechwriters to use something like Scrambled Hackz to create videos of our candidates speaking in a realistic, knowledgable way. Until then, we'll have to content ourselves with more rudimentary puppetry mechanisms like this.
