Japanische Genealogie, Post-Individualismus

Paar interessante Lektüren zur japanischen Genealogie dessen, was im Westen 4chans Anonymous usw. ausmacht:

Wired / “US Fans of the Japanese Web”:

“Japan offers an alternative to US pop culture that goes further than what’s permissible here […]”

Wired / “Meet Hiroyuki Nishimura, the Bad Boy of the Japanese Internet”:

“In American movie theaters, everyone laughs out loud when they’re excited […] You never see that in Japan — you’d probably get punched if you made a sound. But if there were a keyboard next to each movie seat that made comments show up onscreen, people would be typing like crazy.”

Slashdot-Kommentarthread “How Japan’s Biggest BBS Keeps Things Simple “:

This is where internet communication is going. Bulletin boards and imageboards where anonymity is the default and where pointless individualism is deprecated, even derided. (ever been called a namefag? well now you have, namefag.)
