About me

The more time I spend looking around on the Internet, reading magazines and books, listening to music, watching TV, going to the grocery store and the mall, I begin to notice a strange thing happening.

I’ve been seeing subcultures totally merging and becoming mainstream seamlessly. This, I think, is due to the speed at which information travels today.

I’ve been looking at the very touch-y idea of the “Hipster.” It is a culture that I am part of.

More specifically, the “Hipster” is not a subculture but a generation that is the first generation to experience the disappearance of all subculture. There is no such thing as a subculture anymore. Culture can’t be hidden anymore. Everything is out and in the open and I think Hipsters are the people who personify this idea. They are literally, a mashed-up representation of what culture is turning into.

Is this bad or good? It doesn’t matter at all. What is important, though, is to try and look at this generation from as far away as possible. That means to ask the question: Why?

Why do we like that?

Why do we read that?

Why do we wear that?

Why do we eat that?

Why do we do that?

Why do we listen to that?

There is a reason for everything. We just have to detach and detach until we find the answer.

I will post images, thoughts, sounds and anything I see a pattern in. I’ll talk about them and try to understand them in a better way.
