  • f/f fanfiction through the eyes of a fence-sitter
  • fanficforensics: "De verstrikking van Vlaanderen ging niet over Di Rupo als persoon." Grappig is BDW wel #be1306 #kies10
  • fanficforensics: "Democracy is the theory that the common people know what they want, and deserve to get it good and hard." Yep #kies10 #be1306
  • fanficforensics: 'suneipu' is probably relevant in some way, does the same go for the Japanese version of other character names?
  • fanficforensics: ...and feminist organizations have opposed manga censorship in the past. Hearting Fujimoto Yukari right now
  • fanficforensics: ...because sexuality is integrated in advanced capitalist system/consumerism (L-Word etc) -> NOT subversive, state control of sexuality
  • fanficforensics: ...but I missed a critique of the concept of reading manga with the use of specialized software. ALL that software is for pc and mac.
  • fanficforensics: ...but wants methodology that keeps variations or historical contexts into account
  • fanficforensics: ...now I want to do a whole chapter on kinks. Might not be such a crazy idea, actually, if dojinshi kinks are easy to determined.
  • fanficforensics: ...or are there very few spoilerific dojinshi narratives in the first place? Are spoilers deliberately avoided by djka?
  • fanficforensics: @alexleavitt @Yuricon Protecting publishers can't be no1 priority -would be like using copyright to protect companies instead of creators
  • fanficforensics: @alexleavitt Comparing Azuma with fan studies theories on repetition/tropes just now. What would you do with Manovich? (don't know him well)
  • fanficforensics: @alexleavitt Cool, are you co-editor?
  • fanficforensics: @alexleavitt Same here ;) Next time I promise to review a book, I'm checking the page count first.
  • fanficforensics: @alexleavitt That's what I was thinking about, yes. I've no idea about the licenses. It'd have to make them money with little hassle or risk
  • fanficforensics: @alexleavitt The first time I heard commentary on a Korea match, there were three or four Kims on the team. It was high entertainment.
  • fanficforensics: @alexleavitt You mean Tezuka is Dead? Will blog about it, but don't hold your breath, I'm going to be a while here. Japanese hard ;)
  • fanficforensics: @animeresearch "Reading manga" is out of stock absolutely everywhere. I ended up begging a copy off the authors...
  • fanficforensics: @animeresearch A student was just raving about your book, I told him to look you up on Twitter. Can't wait to see what he makes of that pic
  • fanficforensics: @animeresearch I stand corrected, it seems the book has appeared on the German and UK Amazons since I was looking for it a while ago
  • fanficforensics: @animeresearch I think it's cultural preference, yes. Everyone here peels their kiwi fruit, for one :)
  • fanficforensics: @animeresearch Looking forward to that book. The Kyoto manga museum has a symposium on the non-existent youths, too http://bit.ly/dqolJE
  • fanficforensics: @animeresearch Not sure what they mean by "edible skins". Before I went to Japan, I'd never even heard of any grape skins being inedible.
  • fanficforensics: @animeresearch This article, thank you very much for checking! http://bit.ly/94LZLG
  • fanficforensics: @animeresearch Yes, it is. Thanks!
  • fanficforensics: @ArianeBeldi Oh wait, I've got the book now. Should've checked Diigo first
  • fanficforensics: @ArianeBeldi What's that book? The link goes to H-Net, but there's nothing on the page
  • fanficforensics: @ArianeBeldi Yup. I thought you were talking about something different ;) Sorry, I have no head right now, just flu.
  • fanficforensics: @bpglobalpr If you're asking for jingles, does that mean we can expect the computer-animated trailer for your next failed attempt soon?
  • fanficforensics: @BrigidAlverson @Kethylia been seeing the same creepy weight loss ad on LJ pages for weeks, 17 times/day. Annoying doesn't begin to cover it
  • fanficforensics: @clow こんにちは。はい、そちらの気持ちに大賛成でしたから英語圏followersのために翻訳を作ってしまいました。大丈夫でしたか。困りましたら削除します
  • fanficforensics: @creativecommons My apologies, I jumped to conclusions based on the CFP title. Reading comprehension fail
  • fanficforensics: @dankanemitsu Great news, and thank you for keeping us all posted on this issue.
  • fanficforensics: @dolls_kyoto I'm wondering how 20 weird keywords appeared on my PhD info, period. Others: "astronomy", "Meat emulsion", "Organised crime"
  • fanficforensics: @dolls_kyoto It's undoubtedly some sort of mistake, but still, the idea of fandom being called "organized crime" is a bit hilarious.
  • fanficforensics: @jcbradley Can't find any references to any study that says 33%. Speaking from my corner of academia, 33% sounds utterly absurd.
  • fanficforensics: @JimBarrett @Setsuna_C @alexleavitt Somebody in our uni thinks "hoppocampus" is SO a word, and I study it. Hippocampus problem, then?
  • fanficforensics: @JimBarrett Is Condon's talk being videotaped? Sounds fascinating
  • fanficforensics: @JimBarrett Yes, you have the most gorgeous workspace I've ever been in over there and I'm insanely jealous. Go on, rub it in ;)
  • fanficforensics: @julienbouvard Thanks! Ask me about in in ten years, when all my youthful idealism has been mercilessly squashed ;)
  • fanficforensics: @julienbouvard Yes, his piece on fujoshi research in ＢＬスタディーズ.
  • fanficforensics: @kbusse2 Ack, that is indeed annoying. Have a post on the costs of peer review (opportunity, monetary and otherwise) http://bit.ly/cpbC2H
  • fanficforensics: @kbusse2 His writing has been debased by reading all those crappy books, obviously.
  • fanficforensics: @kbusse2 I enjoyed the manga version of War and Peace quite a bit, actually :)
  • fanficforensics: @kbusse2 I seriously did not realize DW was so different from LJ not just in philosophy but also feature-wise. A+ for usability
  • fanficforensics: @kbusse2 In the War and Piece manga, Natasha is pretty much in charge and also kicks Anatol in the nuts once. Much better than the book
  • fanficforensics: @kbusse2 That's darling. Perhaps I should reconsider Supernatural, this Castiel personage looks rather fascinating
  • fanficforensics: @kbusse2 Weird. Over twelve months of research, and they managed to hit only upon the names Bacon-Smith and Jenkins, and nothing after 1992?
  • fanficforensics: @kbusse2 What academic field was she writing in?
  • fanficforensics: @kbusse2 Worse than the HP epilogue? I assume the postscript did not involve married Winchesters and mpreg-induced progeny?
  • fanficforensics: @kemlo Manga Shakespeare's been booming for the past couple of years, it seems. Have some annotated links- http://bit.ly/5zXxLa
  • fanficforensics: @Kethylia Happy birthday! ;)
  • fanficforensics: @Kethylia Wherever it went, my day is there too. Tell it to come back if you see it, it needs to finish papers
  • fanficforensics: @khellekson Congratulations! Those look very, very shiny ;)
  • fanficforensics: @khellekson Is there no rule against linking to TV Tropes during the workday?
  • fanficforensics: @khellekson Wasn't me! Whichever uni person edited my PhD info said I was studying the "hoppocampus" and a whole lot of other... thingies
  • fanficforensics: @kyotomm symposium starting in a few minutes, livestream at http://ustre.am/fjqF i#hijitsuzai (@kyotomm live at http://ustre.am/fjqF )
  • fanficforensics: @kyotomm 明日のシンポジアムの生中継、楽しみにしてます！ベルギーから見てみます。何か決まったハッシュタグありますか。
  • fanficforensics: @madelineashby I'm expecting some crazy to blame the cloud on those few EU countries that allow gay marriage, but the porn idea is better
  • fanficforensics: @michaelschiltz die link gaat naar kashira, kan niemand in zonder paswoord. Is dat de bedoeling?
  • fanficforensics: @michaelschiltz die link kan ik niet openen wegens op kashira?
  • fanficforensics: @mkmalfoy Good for him! You should have one too. Just watch, eat too many nibbles, and laugh at the silly people ;)
  • fanficforensics: @mkmalfoy What's the matter with him? Are you making him suffer?
  • fanficforensics: @mrgunn Yes. A company that says it'll exclude me forever if they *suspect* lawbreaking is just not trust-inspiring. There are alternatives
  • fanficforensics: @PorterHill I'm pretty sure I remember reading somewhere that Loveless was going to be somewhere above 10 volumes
  • fanficforensics: @poutingseacow Veel dingen lijken idd alleen maar 'random'. Lessigs online boek is super, gaat ook over Japan http://bit.ly/d4Wssb #ency10
  • fanficforensics: @Setsuna_C "Here" being Maastricht? Yes, please keep me posted -when would that symposium be?
  • fanficforensics: @Setsuna_C ...are WAY more significant than the differences. I suspect affection is at least as relevant as with western fan communities
  • fanficforensics: @Setsuna_C Academic publishing strikes again. Does this mean I can't look at the paper? :(
  • fanficforensics: @Setsuna_C Ah, no, this was in an English exam *question*. Reading comprehension essay on global warming. I kind of want to poke my eyes out
  • fanficforensics: @Setsuna_C Are Uncle and Zuko any fun? Or too embarrassing? I kind of like both of those actors...
  • fanficforensics: @Setsuna_C Are you seriously suggesting that a tall hunky vampire viking would be more interesting than serious business workshoppery?
  • fanficforensics: @Setsuna_C Creating any medium containing a character who looks/sounds like a minor in a sexual situation would be forbidden as well
  • fanficforensics: @Setsuna_C En te denken dat ze die video's aan het weghalen zijn. Genieten van de zeeleeuwen nu we nog kunnen
  • fanficforensics: @Setsuna_C Good luck! Remember, don't pick one with a colour that you wouldn't be happy to see all over everything you own ;)
  • fanficforensics: @Setsuna_C Good luck, the volcano is taking a break so you should be fine ;) What are you presenting on?
  • fanficforensics: @Setsuna_C Has been on my mind lately. I've started comparing English-language and Japanese theories on emotion/affect in fandom
  • fanficforensics: @Setsuna_C Have you seen @rufftoon 's comics about the movie on DA? Great stuff http://bit.ly/dcgGKK
  • fanficforensics: @Setsuna_C Hence the spitting mad mangaka and publishing companies http://bit.ly/clYUh2
  • fanficforensics: @Setsuna_C How are they even going to know if you've given people the whole paper or the conference version?
  • fanficforensics: @Setsuna_C I can pick you up at the station, it's right close. What time are you arriving?
  • fanficforensics: @Setsuna_C I have to pay attention to Nira speaking right now, but I'd like to get back to you on affection at length later
  • fanficforensics: @Setsuna_C I'd like to betaread a cosplay paper!
  • fanficforensics: @Setsuna_C I'm re-framing what's on my site right now, will let you know when the redecorating is done ;) But yes, swap, let's talk later.
  • fanficforensics: @Setsuna_C Is Groen Links talking with the Belgian Greens on those copyright issues? I wish our elections were about such issues :P
  • fanficforensics: @Setsuna_C Japanese. It looks very sedate in print. It actually went "Really!? We draw X like this in Japan!" "No way!" "Way! What about..."
  • fanficforensics: @Setsuna_C Look at my argument some more. http://bit.ly/9z0VkH http://bit.ly/aTSYsO http://bit.ly/aA4m4u http://bit.ly/a71xeQ
  • fanficforensics: @Setsuna_C Oh, and is there anything about your research online? Google fu is failing me (or perhaps I'm just dead tired)
  • fanficforensics: @Setsuna_C Scene 1 is best if you find out by watching! Scene 2 is Eric with his vampire daddy Godric -> http://bit.ly/brJcY2
  • fanficforensics: @Setsuna_C Shame. It seems like they cut pretty much all the wittiness and humor, and the bending looks just silly. Back to fanfics it is.
  • fanficforensics: @Setsuna_C She's dean, of the faculty of sociology. Very revealing how many people were astounded to hear she was the first
  • fanficforensics: @Setsuna_C So how was failbender? :)
  • fanficforensics: @Setsuna_C Sounds like a reasonable hour. I'll send my phone number via mail in case we don't run into each other at the station
  • fanficforensics: @Setsuna_C Squeefest @my office it is, I suppose. We'll make it research.
  • fanficforensics: @Setsuna_C Still boycotting that one over the racebending issue and apparent general awfulness, but let me know what it's like :) #avatar
  • fanficforensics: @Setsuna_C Suggesties voor de uitstap hadden ook zo kunnen gaan, wees blij ;) http://bit.ly/cPXDmb Maar een schaap is wel heel bijzonder
  • fanficforensics: @Setsuna_C Thing is, the dojinshi I study are exclusively written by female fans, and I don't the similarities with western fandom there...
  • fanficforensics: @Setsuna_C We should build a collection. You using any social bookmarking service?
  • fanficforensics: @Setsuna_C Where would you expect someone from Japanese Studies to stand on the issue? (I don't think I caught your meaning here, sry)
  • fanficforensics: @Setsuna_C Yes. It has Eric. http://bit.ly/9Q0VFe
  • fanficforensics: @Setsuna_C Your working week is done? Are you sure you're in academia? ;)
  • fanficforensics: @Setsuna_C Yup, I'm working on Japanese fandom and starting from content (narrative and visual patterns though -not much of a language fan)
  • fanficforensics: @SpiessensGeert Het is blijkbaar leuker om de "verliezers" dood te pesten dan Gennez of Van Besien iets te vragen #be1306 #kies10
  • fanficforensics: @twincest_mafia Don't you feel honored to be contacted by such an, er, famous person? :)
  • fanficforensics: @twincest_mafia I thank my stars I remembered that site before clicking on any images. Lovely thing to reminisce on before breakfast, thx ;)
  • fanficforensics: @twincest_mafia Sauron didn't survive the destruction of his tacky jewelry. Is there an SPN equivalent? Still not past season 2, dammit
  • fanficforensics: @twincest_mafia Thanks! I made it. Viewed only three pages.
  • fanficforensics: @TyasHuybrechts stole NengoCalc for the Japanese Studies links group http://groups.diigo.com/group/japanesestudiesleuven
  • fanficforensics: @YLeterme retweet zijn eigen bericht, maar zoek het verschil: "Brussel" vs "bxl". Waar is dat nuttig voor? #kies10 #be1306
  • fanficforensics: @Yuricon ...put part of their winnings in a pot to support those who translate for a small audience (language- or content-wise)?
  • fanficforensics: @Yuricon And free copies and honourable mentions for all who contributed funds to a translation beforehand? (Okay, leaving you alone now ;)
  • fanficforensics: @Yuricon eg, all translators *everywhere* get the same basic fee, and a tiny cut of every sale. Would translators of big hits voluntarily...
  • fanficforensics: @Yuricon eg, let people set up pools -"we need this amount to get that manga translated into that language, plz contribute"
  • fanficforensics: @Yuricon I agree open source is essential -do you think companies can be pursuaded to allow for translations on an open source platform?
  • fanficforensics: @Yuricon Just wondering how to pay translators for quality work in open source-ish model. Or let readers "sponsor" a translation they want?
  • fanficforensics: @Yuricon No DRM, of course, but how to convince enough people to pay vs copying manga from other users? What would a paying experience add?
  • fanficforensics: @Yuricon People seem happy reading scanlations on monitors or $500 tablets, but the most democratic medium (worldwide) would be cellphones
  • fanficforensics: @Yuricon Random thought: if we're going with open source anyway, could we convince people to be nice and subsidize each other?
  • fanficforensics: @Yuricon Subscription model? Something that (young) readers with limited funds to pass around and litle patience could handle easily?
  • fanficforensics: @Yuricon There'd be a need to coordinate translation, distribute some payment to translators, check quality? Role for publishers there?
  • fanficforensics: A Snape/Hermione dojinshi! The first in literally hundreds of Snape dojinshi I've checked. Why so little het, HP fandom?
  • fanficforensics: A+ presentation RT @drupal: What leads to better performance & personal satisfaction: Autonomy, Mastery, Purpose http://youtu.be/u6XAPnuFjJc
  • fanficforensics: Aaand back to translationg 6000-word dojinshi article. Sounds like fun when you're not actually doing it. At least I figured out OmegaT now
  • fanficforensics: Afprinten van een prezi is nu mogelijk, indien de prezi gedeeld is met andere gebruikers -zelf saven en er een pdf van maken #jskul
  • fanficforensics: Al duimend deredactie.be in het oog aan het houden. De layout daar is aangenaam @groen, goed begin zeker ;) #kies10 #be1306
  • fanficforensics: Alcohol/substance abuse in dojinshi?
  • fanficforensics: All media are keeping me very well-informed about that vuvuzela festival in South Africa. I hear rumors there's football going on too?
  • fanficforensics: Als het hele land in één taal tweet geraken we wel in de trending topics. Wat is #kies10 of #be1306 in het latijn?
  • fanficforensics: Also just realized that I've stored almost 8500 links in my bookmarking service of choice since the end of 2007. Scary http://bit.ly/cSZaBf
  • fanficforensics: Also trying for the umpteenth time to study all JLPT kanji and vocabulary, with the Zen Nihongo app. Attempt going suspiciously well so far

On this site

Talk about the cultural economics of fanwork, data gathering and comparative research between Japanese dojinshi and English-language fanwork, and legal, economic and cultural policy issues related to dojinshi and to fanwork in general. This site is a personal research playground cum treasure hoard, and also a resource in the making about the function of dojinshi in Japan's system of cultural production. Warning: mature or triggering content in fanwork may be discussed here. See research ethics.
