  • "The Theories Underlying the Con Environment" from the Pop Culture
    Nova Southeastern University From the SelectedWorks of Jon M. Garon 2017 "The Theories Underlying the Con Environment" from The opP Culture Business Handbook for Cons and Festivals Jon M. Garon Available at: https://works.bepress.com/ jon_garon/51/ The Theories Underlying the Con Environment Jon M. Garon* This article is part of a series of book excerpts The Pop Culture Business Handbook for Cons and Festivals, which provides the business, strategy, and legal reference guide for fan conventions, film festivals, musical festivals, and cultural events. A. Origins and Culture Music and theatrical festivals likely have their origins in humanity’s earliest history and are often entwined with religious rituals. Although the Greek god Apollo was associated with music, being the conductor of the heavenly choir, his brother Dionysus was the god of wine, revelry, and theatre. The modern festival extends this tradition of revelry and finds its roots in the Dionysian side of the family. These revels were significant parts of Western culture and have remained so to this day. Community fairs and celebratory fêtes brought travelers and tradesfolk together for commerce and community throughout history. Today, modern music festivals can range from a small event in a public park to a multi-day, multi-stage live broadcast event reaching global audiences. The modern comic book convention had very humble origins, as did other fringe cultural movements. Comic book conventions date their origin to the New York gathering “Comicon ‘64” of fewer than 100 people. Those in attendance realized the gathering addressed a powerful need and the movement grew.

Cosplay is a way for fans to present themselves and their group to the fan community on a con-wide scale. Originally, I planned to investigate how cosplayers navigate their identities as cosplayers and as members of mainstream American society and how do these two identities inform each other. I sought to understand cosplayer’s identities as laborers within their cosplay groups. Using ethnographic research methods, I interviewed eleven participants and conducted participant observations.

EMBODYING COSPLAY: FANDOM COMMUNITIES IN THE USA by NATASHA LOREN HILL Under the Direction of Emanuela Guano ABSTRACT Cosplay is a portmanteau of costume and play, referring specifically to role-play. Cosplay consists of various costumed role-playing, such as anime, manga, video games, science-fiction, fantasy, horror, mythology, etc. In the 1990s, cosplay emerged as a popular street fashion subculture in Japan that has become a worldwide phenomenon. Cosplay was already present in North American popular culture in association with comic and science-fiction conventions. These events at the time were considered masquerades, not cosplay. Cosplay communities rely primarily on maintaining social relationships via internet communication and word of mouth. The standards for what constitutes cosplay are upheld by individuals, the community, and organizations. These organizations are made of security personnel, cosplay contest judges, local police, and convention staff. Through this ethnography on cosplayers, I will identify the hidden power structures, agency, and resistance or replication of hegemony in the community; by using a combination of interviews, participant observation, and auto-ethnography.

Comic books have rarely been treated as a serious art form or cultural phenomenon. It used to be that creating a comic book would be considered shameful or something done only as side work. Beginning in the 1990s, some comic creators were able to leverage enough cultural capital to influence more media. In the post-9/11 world, generic elements of superheroes began to resonate with audiences; superheroes fight against injustices and are able to confront the evils in today’s America. This has created a billion dollar, Oscar-award-winning industry of superhero movies, as well as allowed created comic book careers for artists and writers.
