Quote from: Jocephalopod on October 15, 2015, 07:48:21 PMIn one of my classes I'm learning about 90s Japan trendy dramas and this is one of the subjects broached. The author Lukács argues that consumer investment in media culture valuates abstract commodities. In the context of the book she discusses image commodification as exemplified by Japanese tarento [popular, transmedial idols], who are used to sell lifestyles. Lifestyles are displayed through advertised goods and fashion trends, appealing to the viewer as a way to identify with lifestyles and through consumerism express their identity.
