Youth Subculture's Production And The Construction Of Group Distinctions In The Media Space

ACG culture is an important part of contemporary youth culture.With the development and communication of media,ACG is going to be prevalent and catch more eyes with the unique style on its own,while it was regarded as a minority culture at first.As a cultural product,ACG should be analysed from the sole consumption link to understand the generation of its culture and amateurs.This study pays attention to the daily consumption and leisure of ACG amateurs in internet community by the method of virtual ethnography,and analyses the generation of the style in the ACG Culture and the construct of distinction for amateurs based on the media interaction in terms of the subculture.Amateurs disassemble and recode the text of ACG from different layers,which consequently provides the source for the generation of style in the ACG subculture and constructs the distinction from respects of language,emotion,and memory.Otherwise,amateurs relate the ACG subculture with other cultures by the strategy of intertextuality and the conversion of cultural capital,which also gives more resources for the cultural production of ACG.
