Abstract This paper examines the work of Swedish comics creator Simon Gärdenfors, Simons 120 dagar, as an example of autobiographical comic art in which the concepts of performance and performativity, as developed by Erika Fischer-Lichte, are applied to explore aspects of self-construction. It discusses Gärdenfors’ performative action as a means of extracting experiences with the intention of making artistic work. Self-construction is shaped in relation to the participants in the art project. The work is the product of a social project, but also in relation to elements staged before the advent of the work. By exploring how Gärdenfors’ idea was enunciated and what it achieved, we can examine how he stretches compositional limits and how his graphic memoir becomes a part of a larger artistic event. By working as a performance artist during his production of the book, and by commenting and sometimes interacting with his readers in blog form before, during and after, Gärdenfors’ work attains a performative dimension.

Full textAbstract:
It is well known that from 1920 to 1950, Belgian comics, embedded in a Catholic milieu, sometimes promoted anti-Communism. Au pays de la grande angoisse, drawn by Renaat Demoen and published from 1950 to 1951 in Zonneland and Petits Belges, fits into this category. Nonetheless, its ideological stance can be differentiated from that of series appearing in major Franco-Belgian magazines. Au pays de la grande angoisse is Flemish, intended only for the Belgian market, and therefore not subject to the control of the French Control Commission set up by the July 1949 law. Its critique of Eastern bloc countries is more explicit and more violent. Moreover, the story appeared in comics with a religious affiliation. It sets out to denounce the atheism of the Communists and to glorify the resistance of the believers. Ultimately, Au pays de la grande angoisse is as much a Christian comic as an adventure comic.

One of the clearest signs that Psychology has impacted popular culture is the public’s familiarity with the Rorschach ink-blot test. An excellent example of the Rorschach in popular culture can be found in Watchmen, the comic/graphic novel written by Alan Moore and Dave Gibbons (1987). In the mid-20th century Psychology had an especially contentious relationship with comics; some psychologists were very anxious about the impact comics had on young people, whereas others wrote comics to subvert dominant norms about gender and sexuality. Yet historians of Psychology have had almost nothing to say about this popular and critically acclaimed novel. We read Watchmen here for its narratives that most concern the history of Psychology. We focus on such themes as anti-psychiatry, sexual violence, homophobia, lesbian erasure and social psychological research on bystander intervention. We argue it is possible to align Psychology and comics more closely despite their sometimes contentious history. In doing so we demonstrate the active role of the public in the history of the Rorschach, and the public engagement of Psychology via comics, and also reveal what is possible when historians consider comics within their histories.

Full textAbstract:
In order to face the overwhelming process of Big Knowledge, it is possible to suggest experimental fictions that may help to understand and deal with our knowledge society and culture. The present paper suggests a mode of digital literature named ‘Sociological Comics’, which analyses a political struggle through its story. Under a genre perspective, it fusions sociological knowledge with comics narrative to tell such story. This Sociological Comics example was selected from a corpus of fictional digital texts we included within an archive and Knowledge Base using Hybrimedia. Hybrimedia means the transformation via hybridization of originating media into innovative media. For instance, a post in a blog or a comment in a social network may be reported within a classical mass media e.g. a newspaper, or vice versa. This process actually changes the very nature of these information or knowledge messages.

This article discusses the nexus between art and occultism in the Idéal et Réalité group, which was active in Paris in the third decade of the twentieth century and attracted many prominent writers, poets, actors, and artists. The Idéal et Réalité group emerged from the early twentieth-century esoteric Le Mouvement Cosmique, and it was much influenced by its Cosmic Philosophy. The Cosmic Movement was founded by Max Théon and his wife Théona (Mary Ware) in the first decade of the twentieth century. Art and literature were important in the philosophy and practice of both the Cosmic Movement and the Idéal et Réalité circle. Art dealer Eugène Blot and members of his extended family contributed to the participation of high-profile artists in the Idéal et Réalité circle.

Full textAbstract:
We recently observed that Compound C (CompC), a reversible inhibitor of AMP-activated protein kinase, reduced the cell viability of B16-F1 melanoma cells. To establish its molecular mechanism(s) of action, the cell cycle was examined by flow cytometry and the expression of cell cycle regulatory proteins and angiogenesis-related proteins were examined by western blot analysis. In addition, its effect on tumor growth was investigated using C57BL/6 syngeneic mice bearing B16-F1 xenografts. We found that CompC induced G2/M cell cycle arrest, which was associated with reduced levels of cell cycle regulatory proteins, such as phosphorylated pRB, cyclin-dependent protein kinases (Cdks), cyclins, and phosphorylated P-Ser10-histone H3, and increased levels of Cdk inhibitors, such as p21 and p53. We also found that CompC inhibits proliferation, migration, and tube formation of human umbilical vascular endothelial cells via the inhibition of vascular endothelial growth factor receptor-induced signaling pathways. As expected, CompC significantly reduced the tumor size of B16-F1 xenografts in the syngeneic mouse model. Inhibition of tumor growth may be attributed to reduced cell proliferation via cell cycle inhibition and in part to decreased angiogenesis in CompC-treated mice. These findings suggest the potential use of CompC against melanoma development and progression.

Previous issue date: 2011-12-21<br>Coordenação de Aperfeiçoamento de Pessoal de Nível Superior<br>The comic strip is an opinionative journalistic genre consolidated within the pages of newspapers and magazines. However, the web has allowed the possibility of a new space of creation and placement of this genus, forcing it to adapt to the evolution of digital media. The media convergence, according to Jenkins (2008), explores the possibilities of convergence of devices and media content production as a cultural transformation, as Internet users are encouraged to seek new ways to communicate. The strips, printed productions commonly found in blogs an appropriate space for its dissemination, mainly because they allow us to undertake activities, opinionated, free of censorship and copyright character. Through the studies by Bakhtin (2000) in relation to speech genres, this paper aims to propose a discussion regarding the naming of the comic genre when they are designed exclusively for digital media by adding multimedia features available on the web as did McCloud (2006) and Franco (2004) in relation to comics. To support these goals, a survey was conducted in 104 blogs that had strips in their content, noting that the main types of multimedia and resources used for these crops. The process of creating the Internet has turned into something simple and fun. We're finding new ways to develop already established genres, taking advantage of the gaps left by the content production industry. The web is a place of experimentation and innovation, a space created by the users and the example of these strips are creating new possibilities in digital media and broadcasting.<br>A tirinha (ou tira diária) é considerada por alguns estudiosos, um gênero jornalístico opinativo consolidado dentro das páginas de jornal e revistas. Contudo, a web vem permitindo a possibilidade de um novo espaço de criação e veiculação deste gênero, forçando-o a se adaptar à evolução das mídias digitais. A convergência midiática, segundo Jenkins (2008), explora as possibilidades de confluência de dispositivos midiáticos e de produção de conteúdo como uma transformação cultural, à medida que os usuários da internet são incentivados a procurar novas formas de se comunicar. As tirinhas, produções comumente impressas encontraram nos blogs um espaço apropriado para sua divulgação, principalmente por eles permitirem que se exerçam atividades opinativas, livres de censura e de caráter autoral. Através dos estudos realizados por Bakhtin (2000) em relação aos Gêneros do Discurso, este trabalho tem o objetivo de propor uma discussão em relação à nomenclatura do gênero tirinha quando estes são desenvolvidos exclusivamente para as mídias digitais ao agregar os recursos multimídia disponíveis na web, assim como fizeram McCloud (2006) e Franco (2004) em relação aos quadrinhos. Para fundamentar estes objetivos, foi realizado um levantamento em 104 blogs que apresentavam tirinhas em seu conteúdo, observando quais os principais tipos e recursos multimidiáticos utilizados para estas produções. O processo de criação da internet transformou-se em algo simples e divertido. Como resultado desse estudo, percebemos que estamos descobrindo novas formas de elaborar gêneros já consolidados, aproveitando as lacunas deixadas pela indústria de produção de conteúdo. A web é um lugar de experimentação e inovação, um espaço criado pelos próprios usuários e as tirinhas são o exemplo dessas novas possibilidades criação e veiculação nas mídias digitais.

Cochran, Tanya R. "Toward a Rhetoric of Scholar-Fandom." Digital Archive @ GSU, 2009. http://digitalarchive.gsu.edu/english_diss/51.
Full textAbstract:
Individuals who consider themselves both scholars and fans represent not only a subculture of fandom but also a subculture of academia. These liminal figures seem suspicious to many of their colleagues, yet they are particularly positioned not only to be conduits to engaged learning for students but also to transform the academy by chipping away at the stereotypes that support the symbolic walls of the Ivory Tower. Because they are growing in number and gaining influence in academia, the scholar-fans of the television series Buffy the Vampire Slayer (Buffy) and other texts by creator Joss Whedon are one focus of this dissertation. Though Buffy academics or Whedon scholars are not the only ones of their kind (e.g., academic- fan communities have cropped up around The Simpsons, The Matrix Trilogy, and the Harry Potter franchise), they have produced more literature and are more organized than any other academic-fan community. I approach all of my subjects—fandom, academia, fan-scholars, and scholar-fans—from a multidisciplinary perspective, employing various methodologies, including autoethnography and narrative inquiry. Taking several viewpoints and using mixed methods best allows me to begin identifying and articulating a rhetoric of scholar-fandom. Ultimately, I claim that Whedon academic-fans employ a discourse marked by intimacy, community, reciprocity, and transformation. In other words, the rhetoric of Whedon scholar-fandom promotes an epistemology—a way of knowing—that in Parker J. Palmer’s paradigm is personal, communal, reciprocal, and transformational.

This study focus on authors of graphic and script oriented blogs (comic blogs) and their marketing strategies to explore comic blogs’ development processes and future opportunities.
At the beginning of this research, 15 comic blog authors were selected on the criteria of works publication experience, popularity and two-year blog operating experience. And then, seven interviewees were selected by convenience sampling and were interviewed on six aspects of personal background, requirements of blog platform, operating strategies, marketing strategies, and business models.
The results indicated that all interviewees have similar education background, fields of art or design. Second, the characters they created are positive oriented and stories they created are highly related to ordinary people’s lives experience. Third, the motivations of using a blog firstly based on “social needs” and “respect needs”. After a period of posting works on a blog, “profit needs” becomes the main motivation of using a blog.
Furthermore, “usability of blog platform interface”, “connections between different blog platforms’, “high independency” and “great popularity of a blog platform” are important factors when blog authors selecting a blog platform. When operating a comic blog, authors of comic blogs take good advantages of weblink exchange function of a blog platform, replying text messages for intensive viewers, viral marketing and incident marketing to increase viewing rates of comic blogs. Besides, a profitable business model for running a comic blog includes four aspects: (1) developing characters related products and character licensing, (2) web banner clicking fee, (3) cooperating with an enterprise. Finally, taking good advantages of blog characteristics, developing in multi-aspects, branding, and reaching economic scale of a industry are concluded for future comic blog authors reference.

Full textAbstract:
À l’image des théories de la bande dessinée imprimée, la BD numérique est elle aussi accaparée par les analyses formalistes, dont la plus connue, celle de Scott McCloud, est critiquable, car elle réduit le média à un langage. Or, les mutations provoquées par la remédiation numérique ne sont pas uniquement formelles : l’expérience du lecteur, de l’auteur, et le rapport qu’ils entretiennent ensemble sont modifiés. Ce nouveau rapport influence le contenu des œuvres : on ne raconte pas la même chose dans le livre que sur Internet. L’autobiographie en BD, courant qui a explosé dans l’édition indépendante des années 1990, puis a été largement repris par les blogueurs, permet d’observer les différences de contenus et d’approches véhiculées par le livre et le numérique. Le dispositif du blogue propose un outil de liberté d’expression et de réflexion, mais les paramètres de son exécution (immédiateté, interactivité, désir de popularité, etc.) peuvent détourner cet objectif. Ainsi, beaucoup d’auteurs de blogues n’ont pas produit une autobiographie singulière, mais ont reproduit un courant de pensée existant (en exposant une libido fortement orientée vers la consommation) ainsi qu’un genre codifié, au sein duquel les autobiographies deviennent uniformes. Pour qualifier leurs blogues, on ne peut pas vraiment parler d’autobiographies, car ils ne mettent pas en scène un passé rétrospectif. Il s’agirait davantage de journaux intimes dont l’intimité est communiquée (ou publicisée) plutôt qu’expérimentée. Ce à quoi ces blogues ressemblent finalement le plus, c’est à une sorte de télé-réalité, une « bédé-réalité ».<br>Digital comics, like their printed counterparts, are heavily analyzed in a formalist approach: the most famous analysis, Scott McCloud's, could be criticized for it reduction of the media form to a language. But the changes that stem from the digital remediation aren't solely formal: the reader's experience, the author's, and the relation they share are all modified. This new relation changes the work's content: one doesn't tell the same thing in print and online. Autobiography in comics (a trend that exploded in the independent wave of the 90s and was later re-appropriated by bloggers) allows us to compare differences in approach between books and digital formats. The blog offers a tool for free speech and reflection, but at the same time diverts from such goals by the parameters of its execution (immediacy, interactivity, social networking, etc.). Indeed, many blog authors don't produce a singular autobiography as much as reproduce an existing trend (with a consumption-oriented libido) and a now-codified genre, in which autobiographies become uniform. Those blogs can't be completely considered as autobiographical anymore, as they don't tell of a retrospective past; they are more akin to personal diaries whose intimacy would be communicated (or publicized) instead of experienced. In that way, such blogs are closer to reality shows and could therefore be considered as a form of "reality comic".

Full textAbstract:
This work introduces the chapters (10–14) that analyze transatlantic television’s audiences and fans. It considers debates regarding transnational/transcultural TV distribution and consumption, highlighting issues such as binge watching and piracy. Following Joseph Straubhaar, it argues that the “cultural proximity” of US/UK audiences cannot be treated as objective and can in fact be modified by cultural capital. Such variations in transatlantic TV consumption suggest a need to break with “methodological nationalism,” and the piece concludes by engaging with recent work on transatlantic TV and audiences that has begun to do this, such as Elke Weissmann on TV crime shows. It then sets up each of the following fan/audience-focused chapters, ranging from Black Mirror fans on Reddit to “quality” US TV drama covered via the Guardian media blog, and then from British TV brands at San Diego Comic-Con to fanfiction’s engagement with national-cultural “nitpicking,” and the transcultural fan creation of SuperWhoLock.

Full textAbstract:
Gwen Stacy, who first appeared in Amazing Spider-Man #31 (1965),soon became Peter Parker’s perfect girlfriend—attractive, kind, smart, and completely devoted to him. June 1973 saw the death of this “idealized 1960s ingénue” in an especially tragic and controversial manner—by a “‘snap’heard ‘round the comic book world.” This blow to both Marvel’s fictional denizens and its readers culminated in fans, creators, and scholars dubbing “The Night Gwen Stacy Died” as the “coda of the Silver Age” of comics. Four decades later, women, both as consumers and creators, have become a more visibly and vocally significant force in the world of comics. Itis a force that is demanding representation as fully-formed heroes, villains, and supporting characters. The historical progression of Gwen Stacy from 1965 to the present is curiously emblematic of the parallel revolution of fictional women in comic book universes and real women reading and creating those comic books.

SOCIO-POLITICAL DIMENSION OF THE COMIC BOOK “DEADLY CLASS” The aim of the article is to discuss the socio-political context of the comic book “Deadly Class”, created in 2014 by Rick Remender (script) and Wesley Craig (drawings). The comic is a critique of the rule of the 40th President of the United States, Ronald Reagan. The creators emphasize its significant mistakes (social stratification, increased crime and general mediocrity), but do not notice the significant successes of Reagan’s presidency (economic growth, one of the main drivers of the fall of the Eastern Bloc).

Full textAbstract:
This chapter examines how science, and more specifically the real and symbolic force of Soviet space programs, was harnessed as a weapon in Soviet atheist work. In the 1960s, as cosmonauts and astronauts raced to space, the USSR sought to channel cosmic enthusiasm into atheist work, believing that science could deal the final blow to religion. The chapter first considers the explosion of cosmic enthusiasm after successful Soviet space missions before discussing the use of the Moscow Planetarium as a base for natural scientific and scientific atheist propaganda. It also explores state efforts to spread scientific atheism and shows that the Soviets capitalized on Soviet space firsts to proclaim the truth of scientific materialism. However, scientific miracles and cosmic conquests failed to convert the masses to atheism and exposed the ideological blind spots of Marxism–Leninism.

Full textAbstract:
Chapter 2 compiles evidence for the existence of environmental guilt and shame in the contemporary Western developed world, particularly the United States, from blogs and discussion boards; environmental self-help books and memoirs; broader indicators of cultural trends including comics, TV shows, newspaper articles, marketing studies, and counseling programs; and the few academic studies of the topic. I demonstrate that environmental guilt and shame are commonplace in parts of contemporary U.S. American society, particularly among middle- and upper-class environmentally conscious people. People feel guilt and shame about a wide range of daily activities including their choice of grocery bag, food, and transportation. People experiencing these moral emotions often do so both as individuals and as parts of a collective whether family, community, nation, species, or sometimes diffuse collective (i.e. “industrialized people”). Confessions of and responses to environmental guilt and shame take a religious cast as people confess their wrongs, ask for help in changing their actions, and particularly desire assistance in dealing with the existential ramifications of their actions, and subsequently shape their individual and collective identities.
