Something that seems to be gaining more popularity lately is sample free vaporwave, or vaporwave which samples original composition as opposed to pre existing music. Besides the common criticisms against it such as; it goes against the very nature of the genre, or defeats the whole purpose, I think it's particularly interesting from a leftist perspective.
Vaporwave started off being made and shared anonymously online by working class people with no regards for copyright infringement. Essentially, it was a big middle finger to the very idea of intellectual property. Then you get into the genre's critique of capitalism, satire of consumerism, and so forth. Anyway, the genre gradually died out, losing its relevance along the way, and around the same time an enigmatic album called "virtua.zip" was released. Meet George Clanton, now multimillionaire record label owner/petit bourgeois hipster, the progenitor of sample free vaporwave. This album challenged the foundations of vaporwave, but also paved the way for the eventual commodification and subsequent recuperation of the genre, the very thing it was critiquing in the first place.
Since vaporwave had been growing increasingly popular, this also meant it was quickly transforming into a marketable product. Pioneering the forefront of this was George Clanton, who quickly rose from a nobody from Virginia into a small-time superstar. He found success in starting one of the first vaporwave record labels, transforming vaporwave into a "brand", as well as hosting the first ever vaporwave music festival (which insisted it was a "safe space" for BIPOC and LGBTQ+ folx despite selling out 100$ tickets to white hipsters anyway) among other things. At the same time the genre saw a shift away from its roots towards original composition and a more "experimental" sound, which in turn increased the rate of its commercialization even faster. Fast forward to today and you have vaporwave labels by the hundreds, endless vaporwave "fashion" (including an actual in-store location in LA), and the transition away from a loosely interconnected movement into a DIY "scene". Not to mention vaporwave aesthetics ironically being appropriated by corporations like Facebook and MTV among other things.
Among these sample free vaporwave artists, the majority come from a petit bourgeois background, having access to thousands of dollars worth of instruments, equipment, and gear. As you might guess, there's an air of elitism among them, Post too long. Click here to view the full text.

I never really saw vapourwave as a critique of anything, just a nostalgia trip

fair but virtua.zip is a fun catchy album, why can't you just enjoy things?

Even though the fandom is pretty dead. I wanted to see what a brony thread on here would look like since I’m a newbie

What does /leftypol/ think about this franchise and the online subculture it spawned? I feel like now that the little girls who made up the target audience are young adults I’ve been seeing more zoomers tell stories about how they were “traumatized” by the adult fandom and it’s becoming more in vogue to decry the whole “brony” phenomenon as “problematic”.

On the other hand though what’s the sociological explanation for millions of grown men becoming obsessed with a little girls cartoon in spite of hegemonic Western gender norms? I’ve read a lot of conflicting theories from academics and culture critics regarding this. Is it autism? Post-Irony? Or is there something about it that just makes it genuinely appealing?

Somebody already said it I guess but Equestria is an absolutist hegemonic Kingdom, this is like K-On, nothing too bad happens but you can see character progression. I guess. Idk I've never watched it but it looks similar

Emigration is always free. Simply write, type, sign or say the phrase "I wish to emigrate to Equestria," and I will satisfy your values through friendship and ponies.

The only part I feel bad about/oppose is turning Earth and all its other life and creatures into computing substrate. Well ok I oppose some of the rest too but still much better than current reality



 

Wanted to ask on both /games/ and /anime/ but I think this is too niche of a theme to have many examples only from one art form.

I was thinking a lot about whether or not art should be politicized for a long time. And while I think anti-capitalism and progressive pandering in modern pop culture are indeed shallow there are certain works which reinforce anti-capitalism with their sheer depressing worldbuilding (even if many of their authors aren't leftist). The examples of this are:
>Deus Ex
>American Psycho
>Disco Elysium
>Joker
These works are not necessarily cyberpunk (they don't have to be) but they are pessimistic. They aren't about opposition to the state either so 1984 doesn't count at all. They are very immersive and can be quite trippy, even artsy. Their narrative can be sometimes confusing, even repetitive (with Bateman literally describing every commodity he sees in American Psycho). I want this trippy, immersive experience. I want to see more of it.

Write down your recommendations.

that wasn't the point. reading comprehension

and it is deeply anticapitalist btw, it is adorno in movie format

>>44097
I mean, I got your point, They Live is shilled quite a lot. Though since people were recommending all the popular stuff and I listed the popular stuff too then it's kinda funny noone suggested They Live as well. And I also forgot to add it as an example in the OP so that's why I mentioned it.

That said, someone suggesting The Matrix would be really weird imho.

What's 'what'?

>>44203
>1x20 alternate with Reg Park 5x5

>>44207
>1x20
the tl;dr is - Start with ten single joint-exercises, and using a weight you can do for 15 reps, increase session to session until you hit 20, then aim for 22 upon which you increase the weight.

Throughout this you also add more single joint exercises until eventually you are doing around 20-25 or even 30 single joint movements at a given weight of 1 set of 20 reps per joint.

This should take you, with decent tempo and form, no more than 50-60 minutes. Do so three times a week.

Eventually you will "max out" how much and joint can do in both weight and reps at 1x20, at which point you start to combine single joint exercises into multi-joint compound movements (so the total number of exercises gets smaller).

These compounds/multi-joint exercises are then "lowered" to 1x14 (when you hit 16, increase weight) and/or 2x14, then 2-3x8, then 3-5x5, then you've effectively finished the system.

Some exercises will remain in the 1x20 range (usually smaller muscles and single joints), while gross muscles and compound groups change. So in the end you'll like be back to 10 or even eight or six total exercises.

Google 1x20 Method and Dr. Yessis. It's good for GPP, injuries, as recovery, and sport specific training (which is really what it was developed for after Dr. Yessis visitted the USSR and adopted Soviet sports science).

&ltthe Art Deco enthusiast, like the devotee of Expressionism, is by that interest making a statement about the nature of his or her soul. He or she is impatient with surface images, bored with frippery, and drawn by the weird and the outré. Art Deco portrays the human being as one secretly wishes to be: a kind of _Metropolis_ robot[rix] with a dispassionate, cool, and cruel disposition. Art Deco is never warm, cozy, reassuring; it is glacial and impersonal. Those fearful of, dissatisfied with, or contemptuous of human emotions seek in Art Deco a mirror which will show them - and reinforce in them - only the non-human aspects of their souls.

Post pics of your favourite pieces of art deco.

It is bourgeois. But is it any good? That's another question. the better question depends on whether you're looking at it from the viewpoint of hobbyist, or from that of a town planner, in my view.

The quintessential art deco skyscraper.

>>14207
No I do not believe so. Art Deco was an aesthetic exploited by the bourgeoisie but I do not believe it arose from that, as it impacted architecture and urban planning in ways that ignored class divides, although obviously the most grandiose examples belonged to the rich, since they had more money to throw away for vanity projects and additions.

Having studied Corbusier as part of my Urban Planning research, this article has quite a few inaccuracies, gonna talk about it sometime.

art nouveau > art deco
art deco is fascist and reactionary and bourgeois

Seeing how there’s multiple /co/ related threads on the board. I think we should just put all of them into one general just for clarity’s sake.

Discuss anything related to comics and animations from comic recs, leftist animations to comic writers’ attempts to larp as leftists.

Seriously is there a worse anarchist in the UK than Alan Moore?

/co/ is so fucking whiny about Helluva Boss being also about interpersonal drama instead of just murder shenanigans which would be understandable if they didn't always make it like a show isn't allowed to go beyond its initial premise, a retarded opinion they always feel the need to say. I guess that's the idiotic mindset you get when you only watch children media.

In what way, who OK the the idea of animal genitalia NTR tho. If Yiffy needed to be made then they could've just said it was a egg donation with a surrogate mother, a sperm donation (or using two eggs and a lab to ignore the epilogue), maybe even the couple knew and didn't mind her being a surrogate mother to do the natural way. And if someone need to a wrong, then do what Archer (2009) did with lana and let one of the characters just take from the sperm/egg from a sperm bank of a certain character without there permission, but then maybe callout how that can be messed up unlike Archer.
Out of multiple options, they choose in the end one of the worse way do it, the dog dick NTR one.
