tishaturk: IP/Gender Symposium - What this means is that even if a vidder doesn't change the story of a show--even if her vid is mere recapitulation--she is changing the narrative by changing the discourse; she is always re-narrating, re-telling. Sometimes "retelling" means telling-against-the-grain; sometimes it simply means telling-again. Either way, a vid is always a transformation of the narrative on which it's based. -
- havocthecat: Femslash Fanfic & Feedback - Do you think the lack of feedback is because there just aren't the numbers to support it, or do you think it's because people just don't leave feedback? Or does one feed on the other? I mean, lack of feedback could cause people to leave for the shinier pastures of het or slash. -
- lolaraincoat: two points on the latest episode of stupid behavior among writers of science fiction - The general point is that the past is more tightly woven together than you think, and no amount of "world-building" can salvage a project that starts with such sweeping assumptions but ends up in such a familiar place anyway. -
- sabinelagrande: There isn't enough facepalm in the New or Old Worlds - Our destinies have been inextricably linked every since Contact. Without Contact, throw away your Defoe and kiss Shakespeare goodbye. -
- everysecondtuesday: An Open Letter to Politifandom - That said, I'd like to talk about the 20s and 30s and (and maybe you're getting tired of this, but) I'd like to talk about race, gender, and sexuality. -
