The process of taking elements on one thing and mixing it with elements of another thing (or more than one other thing).

the concept is used in open source development to describe for example building a new computer program by using sections from other computer programs. Since open source software development produces code that anyone can see and use, remixing is a widely used practice where everyone is using everyone ease's code to make new code. This increases the number of adjacent possibles, which makes open source development hyper innovative, in contrast with traditional closed innovation based on proprietary code, forbidding someone else from making use of it.
