In the context of globalization, cultural manipulation, and language adaptation, how does the typographic landscape around the internet, fan-space, and shared online platforms influence contemporary interaction and shape cultural identity. A story between me and my internet persona.
“Bullet chats” is a system of commenting that overlays “flying” texts onto the video display also synchronizes them to the video timeline. Chinese youth mix foreign languages and Chinese to create their own cyber-pidgin and use it in “bullet chats”. How do they use “bullet chats” to create their own space and refuse outsiders from entering into the space both linguistically and visually? “Bullet chats” is graffiti on top of the original. It is a unique way to reject the ownership and copyright of the original.
