Description Scanner KILLED it. O: I'm mad...but still. I love it.

So I was reading this really cool magazine called Fashion Rocks!, which is basically a rock fashion magazine, and I came to this photoshoot section called 'In My Tribe' that had these six models posing outside in four different scenes that represent the 4 fashion cults: punk, goth, rave and mod. I thought it was really cool and was also really bored, and decided to make it a collage. So I chose my favorite model from each cult and put it on the collage, cut out the descriptions, too, and found other stuff in the same magazine to fill in the spaces. (About the happy little Disney birds: I have no idea why I put em there, either xD) Then there were more blank spots, so i made them fancy and colored with highlighter...but it didn't exactly come out pretty on the comp, for some reason. The orange looks pukey and the yellow looks like pee. And the pink is...not...bright pink. Waaah. D:

But it does look pretty in real life. Trust me. Linz knows. She sawded it O:

And because I know you can't read the fine print, here we go:

PUNK: It hasn't changed much since the seventies, when Vivienne Westwood, the doyenne of DIY fashion, perfected the devil-may-care style of this British subculture. The look is cannonized here with tartans, ripped fishnets, latex leggings, and aggressive-looking jewelry.

GOTH: They say it began as a gloomy, introspective alternative to glossy pop tunes. Here, its drama is spellbinding, and its darkness is palpable.

RAVE: To some, it's a madcap explosion of neon and plastic; an animated celebration of phsycadelic ecstasy; a club kid's Technicolor dream. To those in the know, it's just another Acid House Summer of Love.

MOD: In this squad, scooters are as important as a pair of striped stovepipes; and they're as much a vehicle for style as the slim suits and shiny Quadrophenia-esque spectator loafers that walked the King's Road circa 1960.

D: ... too many big words o.o

anyway...from punk I like the plaid, fishnets and some of the jewelry; from goth...um, well, I guess the color black? and skulls, I guess...; from rave, teh COLORS!!! and the fancy jewelry and makeup; from mod, the skinny jeans/pants or whatever. And I guess my hair's scene, but that doesn't really fit into any of the four xD Okay, mom's yelling at me to get off the internet, so yah O:

This is a great piece. Ha... fashion culture is so odd to me. :-p

I like the "mod" girl's hair... :-p Yay androgeny.

What's wierd to me is that "punk" is now considered a fashion rather than a philosophy. The aesthetic was originally a reflection of that philosophy, now seemingly long-lost. Even stranger that they cite it's origins in England...

Dead Kennedys, dammit!

hyperism In reply to hitodama [2008-01-04 21:17:13 +0000 UTC]

thank you! :]

never heard of mod til I saw the mag...but yah I like it. mine's short like that but a little longer...and a-line. and moar 'scene' or whatever and choppy and razored n stuff. actually its a lot different o.o well it /used/ to look moar like mod xD

yah...I thought it was sposed to be about not being in fashion originally or something. but oh well...I wear some of that stuff just fer the fashion so I dont mind xD

fashion culture is odd...but I mean this is a rock fashion magazine so its not like theres much preppyness to it...which I love because preppy is so boring and ick O: I wanna subscribe to it. seventeen is too preppy fer me :/ plus Fashion Rocks! has moar punk/rave/scene stuff that ah like to dress in :3

If you love the music, never stop listening to it. If you love the clothes, never stop wearing them. Though... to quote the closing words of one of my favorite songs...
"It ain't about the SCENE!"

hyperism In reply to hitodama [2008-01-05 21:22:28 +0000 UTC]

yahh...I pretty much love all rock except most screamo (I love foo fighters and chiodos though) and way-over-the-top emo (except MCR, which apparently isn't emo anyway :])...my favorites are indie, alt, and punk so yah.

and I dun really care too much about the scene. I've never been too self-conscious. never really wore preppy clothes (except for this one like weird 2 month stage o.o too much spending time with my preppy cousins xD but that changed fast O, and I'm perfectly fine with my own mixed style. even though people call me scene sometimes. which I hate T.T

i try....i guess. for me... its more of a stoner, put on pjs and go to school, why cant i be rockabilly, wear whatever the heck i want, oooo look pink fire hydrant!! IM NOT EMO. look.

but im SO NOT a stoner... people just think i am. its kind of annoying actually. stoners are gay fags. and believe me. i know. i hang out with most of them. thats probably why people think im a stoner. but honestly, i think its repulsive. but i have to admit.... some of them are reallllly hot. like the skater guys.... EEEEEEEE.
aheh...sorry.... i got a little carried away.

RockHarder In reply to hyperism [2008-06-15 07:29:14 +0000 UTC]

um okay so what you do is look for a brush type that says something like overlay or vivid light and then you choose a black swatch and color over the entire thing.
also, the vivid light brush is good when you use it with white at about 77% opacity.

...but thats for killing color not keeping it.
black is for keeping it.
