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.

    < mill NASCAR OF NASCAR ■ TP'S FAST, ITS FURIOUS, IT'S SPINE- I tingling, jump-out-of-youn-seat action, a sport created by a fan for the fans, it’s all part of the American dream. Conceived in a hotel room in Daytona, Florida, in 1948, NASCAR is now America’s fastest-growing sport and is fast becoming one of America’s most-watched sports. As crowds flock to see state-of-the-art, 700-horsepower cars powering their way around high-banked ovals, outmaneuvering, outpacing and outthinking each other, NASCAR has passed the half-century mark. 50 Years of NASCAR captures all that has made Bill France’s dream into a firm, big-money reality. It traces the history and the development of the sport through the faces behind the scene who have made the sport such a success and the personalities behind the helmets—the stars that the crowds flock to see. There is also a comprehensive statistics section featuring the results of the Winston Cup series and the all-time leaders in NASCAR’S driving history plus a chronology capturing the highlights of the sport. Packed throughout with dramatic color illustrations, each page is an action-packed celebration of all that has made the sport what it is today. Whether you are a die-hard fan or just an armchair follower of the sport, 50 Years of NASCAR is a must-have addition to the bookshelf of anyone with an interest in the sport. $29.95 USA/ $44.95 CAN THIS IS A CARLTON BOOK ISBN 1 85868 874 4 Copyright © Carlton Books Limited 1998 Project Editor: Chris Hawkes First published 1998 Project Art Editor: Zoe Maggs Reprinted with corrections 1999, 2000 Picture Research: Catherine Costelloe 10 9876 5 4321 Production: Sarah Corteel Design: Graham Curd, Steve Wilson All rights reserved.

    Serendipity is waking to capture a 747 sunrise, or shooting Ludvig Bjørnstad’s fireball from the start line with a hand-held 50mm Olympus! However I’ve got nothing on that found by Harlan Thompson, the lone gun legend of my 1980 Hot Gossip scoop. He’d been making a good living for some years as a gun for hire on the East Coast’s lucrative Fuel Coupe match race circuit when a serendipitous meeting with Swedish racer Knut Söderquist saw them teaming up and putting together Tre Kronor to race over here ... "My first time down the quarter mile in Europe they put me into the guard rail, they took the fender off the car,” Harlan told me, adding with a chuckle, “I thought, boy they sure play rough over here!” LLeeggeennddss eeddiiittiiioonn wwoorrrddsss & & p phhootttoosss mmiiikkee c ccoolllllliiinnsss That meeting took place at Harlan’s long-time parts store, the famed Central Jersey Speed & Machine, and in July 1980 they drove into Santa Pod in a beat-up Mercedes, Harlan suggesting that with shot suspension it made them look like down-and-outs! Tre Kronor (three crowns in Swedish), was naked to the elements on an open trailer, its stunning Bob Gerdes’ paint job gleaming in the sun for all to see. Harlan first pass was indeed memorable - Houndog got outta shape, changing lanes and hit Tre Kronor, but with no major damage. Harlan was happy and impressed when Bob Phelps “took the body and fixed it for us while we set the car up for the next pass." They qualified fifth, losing to the pole sitter, British racing legend Bootsie Herridge’s new Gladiator

  • Hot Gossip Will Be 98% Nitrofree!
    Read the story then come back and click Before these Fuel Coupes had even fired up, I was reflecting on the buzz the links, you’ll have more fun that way... I’d got from watching Rune Fjeld and Eric Otley put together their new Mobil 1/Pepsi Trans Am to become the quickest EuroRacers with a stout 5.58 at 257mph. In the first round Rune got the hole shot but hit tyre shake, clicking off as KC Spurlock sped to 5.39 at 266 for the win. Words & photos Mike Collins “Hollywood,” as he’s known, became an instant legend as the first fuel coupe rookie to win an NHRA event first time out, and only a couple of NitroPilots have done it since! Licensed shortly before the event and with just half-a-dozen passes under his belt, Hollywood ran a string of 5.3s, beating reigning NHRA Champion Bruce Larson and then a true racing legend Ed “the Ace” McCulloch (“Roaring down memory lane” by National Dragster Editor Phil Burgess at Dragster Insider), and the pair met again in the 1990 Gatornationals finals above (links to the ESPN’s 5-minute Finals show - with the Greek beating the Bud King!). As I put these words down in Street Machine came the thought that most of our readers are aware of the awesome ground pounding power of NItroFired Fuel Coupes thundering into the night, and especially Eurodragster readers, but either way, many weren’t born when I was enjoying this magic moment!
