The Art and Popular Culture Encyclopedia is a nobrow encyclopedia for the loftiest of intellectuals and the most jaded hedonists. It explores the hidden links between "mainstream" and "underground" culture.
The encylopedia, a Wikipedia remix, is built along these themes and sensibilities and keywords as well as these artists and theorists.
Methodology
- "Method of this work: literary montage. I have nothing to say only to show." -- Passagenwerk (1927 - 1940) by Walter Benjamin
- The "rhizome" allows for multiple, non-hierarchical entry and exit points in data representation and interpretation. --A Thousand Plateaus - Gilles Deleuze and Félix Guattari, volume 2 of Capitalisme et Schizofrénie (1980)
Biases
- Contrary to the guidelines of Wikipedia (of which this work is a fork), this encyclopedia allows original research and has a publication bias favoring appreciative criticism
- In biographies, lots of attention is given to romantic involvements (cherchez la femme and cherchez l'homme) and patronage.
- Geography: Eurocentrism, Francophilia, Francosphere, Anglosphere contrasted with a distinct freference for otherness and alterity
- Themes and sensibilities: these themes and sensibilities and keywords
- canonical artists and theorists
- Body genres
- Namesakes: homonymy and paronymy are important and strengthen self-referentiality of the encyclopedia.
- General: bias towards the cultish, the transgressive and the nobrow; stereotypical representations
- Music: bias towards black music, underground music, and experimental music
- Film: bias towards cult films, a kind disregard for all film awards
