Extended affine Lie algebras (or EALAs for short) provide a natural generalization of affine Kac-Moody Lie algebras and of toroidal Lie algebras. An axiomatic definition of EALAs and their root systems was given in [\textit{B. Allison} at al., Mem. Am. Math. Soc. 603 (1997; Zbl 0879.17012)]. As in the case of affine Kac-Moody Lie algebras, an important step in the theory of EALAs is to find a realization of such algebras. In the present paper, the author shows that many of the known examples of EALAs can be constructed from standard examples by the twisting process.
