El lado B de la cultura: análisis del Fanzine y su relación con la cultura escrita y Underground en Colombia

Abstract

The present work perceives a wide and dynamic field of research in the simplest aspects of cultural daily life and from which a conscious nation can be built and participates in its own development processes. Consequently, this qualitative research presents an overview of the characteristics, contexts and dynamics around the fanzine as a manifestation of written and underground culture in Colombia, compared to the characteristics that distinguish mainstream cultural productions. For this, a multimodal analysis of representative fanzines was carried out, articulated with experiences of fanzineros, and observations of self-managed publications fairs; of the main fanzine´s cities of the country: Medellín, Bogotá, Cali and Manizales. Thanks to the contribution of these sources, discourses, designs, forms of production, distribution and consumption were identified and related to underground cultural and trend dimensions.
