Clarify difference between appropriation and bricolage

Open amyjko opened this issue 7 years ago • 0 comments

I do not feel like the appropriation vs bricolage explanation is very clear. The line of demarcation seems very slim to me. This is because in the article it describes appropriation as borrowing an idea from someone, and creating something new. Bricolage is pretty similar in that it is creating something from multiple objects, however where it is confusing is the fact that this thing that is created is also technically new. It is hard to identify what separates the two.
