An intuitive portrait of a contemporary culture. The Essay of a modern culture.
Sergey Sergeyevich is interested in modern cultural processes. This interest is carried out on a background level - not in the form of a program or a plan of cultural research.
"Even if I do not have a special program of analysis of modern culture, even if I do not spend any particular time on this business and do not spend any money on this business... but I can not make an intuitive portrait of modern culture ?'
To begin with, Sergey Sergeyevich singled out "real post-Soviet culture."
"A real the post-Soviet culture" - these are the real residual elements that have survived from the real the Soviet culture.
Here, for example, the author of a number of literary works, earlier - the serviceman, "the participant of actions". He is running from a country to a country. He is a little reminiscent of Guy de Maupassant-a soldier of the army, which was defeated at Sedan. Sergey Sergeyevich read a something from the work of this man. More to read - there is no desire. But Sergey Sergeyevich pays tribute - what was read - was written expressively.
On the Internet they are rare, but there are excellent works on pre-revolutionary, Soviet and modern history. But the authors of these works can not to reach, apparently, to the printing press. In today's social environment, they cannot achieve any historical or literary name, no social status, no money.
In relation to them, and to all other real creative personalities, the rule applies -" first freeze - up to a maximum level, and if it does not work, then smear the lips with a sour cream so that they lick, and that more wanted."
Two or three more or less qualified the state budget historians of literature (historians) are noticed.
In the film sphere, the filmmaker who made the "black Comedy" showed himself. Although Sergey Sergeyevich and not watched this "black Comedy", and to watch special desires not has, but according a sum of an information believes, that the film an independent and with elements creativity.
The film was shot on voluntary donations.
There's a film critic. A young. His film-critical works are watched by more viewers than the films themselves... and why watch these film splints [kino-luboks]? The young film critic, also, lives on voluntary donations. This financial source still remains, as long as there is access to foreign video platforms.
A film Director and a young film critic were attacked [there was an offensive against them], but somehow they managed to stay alive and an unharmed ones.
Sergey Sergeyevich decided not to touch music and other spheres of culture, - They are not interested him much. Nevertheless, a partition of a rappers on "ordinary" ones and on "elite's" is obvious. The two groups have different lifestyles.
Unexpectedly for himself Sergey Sergeyevich saw a group of creative personalities who are in places not so remote or their relatives. This group specializes in memoirs and confessions. Often - a quite high-quality and sincere works.
Many journalists produce a very high-quality literary product-especially portraits of contemporaries and detective plots on a modern history. Apparently, a traditions of journalism are manifesting themselves, an emotions, a weakening of control "from above" in periods of rapid (urgent) and voluminous work.
Next to the "real post-Soviet culture" is located "Russial culture". A "Russial culture" is characterized by a proximity to a raw material budget pie, by an ability to be obedient...
Here and cinema-oligarchs, and the army of budget claquers ready to be silent and speak, to ridicule and regret, to defame and praise. Here, and a "theatrical reservoir". Here and a "writers", of which no one publishes, no one buys and no one reads - but them put (for display) during an ostentatious book exhibitions... There and a subclass of thieves of a creative product (an intellectual thieves)...
Sergey Sergeyevich decided not to give a picture of "Russial culture" in detail. As one cultural figure of the era of Nikolai Pavlovich said: "you need to take care of your skin [take care of your safety]."
"As long as a film like the "Leviathan" is not made - about the cultural sphere, it is useful to have a brief, intuitive, but claiming for generalization, the description of modern culture."
