Nemrég adtunk hírt a Coelho-generátorról, azóta pedig rábukkantunk méltó versenytársára, a posztmodernizmus-generátorra. Ehhez ráadásul járulékos elemként tartozik egy együttesnév-generátor és egy versgenerátor is.
Az oldal üzemeltetője egy seattle-i informatikus, aki az egyetemen tanult és dolgozott, de aztán inkább mégse szerzett diplomát. Az elsewhere.comot 1996-ban regisztrálta, és mint megjegyzi, azóta nem sokat fejlődött a webdizájn-skillje. Nézzünk néhány generált szöveget! (Elnézést, hogy nem fordítom le, de ha valaki élvezni akarja az oldalt, kénytelen lesz ezt angolul tenni, ebben a provinciális Seattle-ben még nem világnyelv a magyar.)
The Discourse of Failure: Batailleist `powerful communication’, neodeconstructivist narrative and feminism
Agnes Buxton
Department of Sociology, Miskatonic University, Arkham, Mass.
1. Textual subdialectic theory and textual nihilism
In the works of Smith, a predominant concept is the distinction between ground and figure. The subject is contextualised into a Batailleist `powerful communication’ that includes consciousness as a totality. It could be said that an abundance of theories concerning not semioticism as such, but postsemioticism may be discovered.
Baudrillard uses the term ‘Lyotardist narrative’ to denote the role of the poet as participant. In a sense, if Batailleist `powerful communication’ holds, we have to choose between precapitalist dialectic theory and the subcultural paradigm of context.(...)

The Expression of Collapse: Subcultural socialism and surrealism

2. Burroughs and surrealism
“Sexual identity is part of the fatal flaw of culture,” says Derrida. But if the capitalist paradigm of expression holds, we have to choose between subcultural socialism and subcapitalist dialectic theory. Foucault uses the term ‘the capitalist paradigm of expression’ to denote not, in fact, theory, but pretheory.
The primary theme of the works of Burroughs is the role of the reader as observer. Thus, the subject is contextualised into a subcultural socialism that includes language as a totality. Marx uses the term ‘surrealism’ to denote the economy, and eventually the collapse, of neopatriarchialist sexuality.
“Class is intrinsically a legal fiction,” says Lacan; however, according to Abian[4] , it is not so much class that is intrinsically a legal fiction, but rather the fatal flaw, and subsequent defining characteristic, of class. In a sense, the main theme of Porter’s[5] analysis of the capitalist paradigm of expression is the role of the writer as observer. D’Erlette[6] suggests that the works of Gaiman are an example of capitalist nationalism.
Thus, Lyotard promotes the use of subcultural socialism to challenge capitalism. In Erotica, Madonna affirms surrealism; in Sex she examines Marxist capitalism. (...)Therefore, in Erotica, Madonna denies surrealism; in Material Girl, however, she affirms subcultural socialism. A number of narratives concerning not theory per se, but pretheory may be found.

Tehát ha valaki csak azért nem tudja felfuttatni a garázszenekarát, mert nem tudnak kiötölni egy tökös nevet, forduljanak Josh bácsihoz. Jó kérdés, hogy vajon a helyi grunge szubkultúra zenekarai késztették-e az ötletgazdát az efféle gerillatanácsadásra. Mindenesetre az olyan neveket, mint az Alice In Chains vagy a Screaming Trees, esetleg a Pearl Jam-előd Mother Love Bone, akár ő is kitalálhatta volna. Minden posztmodern zenekar lophatna innen nevet - meg szövegeket is a versgenerátor révén, csak meg kell zenésíteni őket. És most hallgassunk Alice In Chainst.
