See Jarvis v. A&M Records, 827 F.Supp 282, 289 (D.N.J. 1993) (“The digital code that describes the sampled music . . . can then be reused, manipulated or combined with other digitalized or recorded sounds…..”). It is especially common in the “multi-faceted form of art” known as hip-hop. Sunenblick v. Harrell, 895 F.Supp. 616 (S.D.N.Y. 1995) (describing hip-hop as deriving its substance from rap music, breakdancing, and graffiti).

15 Arend (pp. 80–86) draws primarily on the notions of authority and control as expressed in McDougal, Myres, Some Basic Theoretical Concepts About International Law: A Policy Oriented Framework, in 2 The Strategy of World Order 129 (Falk, Richard A. & Mendlovitz, Saul H. eds., 1966)Google Scholar.
16 Arend (pp. 120–22, 130–31) draws primarily on the concept of a regime as a set of mutual expectations, organizational energies, and commitments accepted by members of the regime, as expressed in Ruggie, John G., International Response to Technology: Concepts and Trends, 29 Int’l Org. 570 (1975)Google Scholar.
17 Arend (pp. 130–31) draws on John Rawls’s notion of “rules of a practice” as constitutive rules for a system, as found in his Two Concepts of Rules, 64 Phil. Rev. 3, 24 (1955), and as elaborated upon further and applied to the international system in Keohane, Robert O., International Institutions and State Power: Essays In International Relations Theory 184 (1989)Google Scholar.

19 In a manner suggesting a Borgesian mirror reflecting in other mirrors, this statement is quoted in English in Bell-Villada, id., but is taken from Borges’s interview over French radio as quoted in Georges Charbonnier, El Escrltorysu Obra 75 (1967), which is itself a Spanish translation of Georges Charbonnier, Entretiensavec Borges (1967).

The phrase “literature of exhaustion” was coined by Barth and applies to modes of expression as diverse as so-called intermedia arts (“Somebody-or-other’s unbound, unpaginated, randomly assembled novel-in-a-box... [or] Cage’s 4’33” performed in an empty hall,” id. at 83), as well as to the writings of Jorge Luis Borges.
