COSPLAY is a cool pastime and hone creative self-expression or nerd
and expensive way to escape world pressure? Either way you care about
it?
CosPlay tide 101 ignorance and misleading
What is the CosPlay tide? Sounds like a new online video game or a
new Facebook application Farmville to you? Ah, no. The CosPlay tide is a
combination of two words: "clothing" and "role-playing", COSPLAYER is a
nuisance, not necessarily nice people, assuming a character from an
animation program, video games, comics, cartoons, series the role of
comic books, movies or TV series. Inspire them or they think the
characters shoes actor is really cool, copy their clothing, prosthetics,
makeup, hair and Uber cold accessories. Here is what really surprised
me, the actor must not only look like the characters they like, it
sounds like, basically portrays them down to the last smirk of the
characters.
This is how COSPLAY elders between this social phenomenon really
started. However, they seem to agree that the origin of one thing - the
word role-playing. Most elders agree that reporter Takahashi Noboyuki,
first create the word in the article "animation", to attend the World
Science Fiction Convention in 1984, saw a group of Starship swagger own
things (Star Trek fans). From there, COSPLAY has evolved into an
animation, comic books, comic books, movies, basically all the fun in
the sun between the fictional lovers of Asian culture, and elevated to
an art form, and in the various countries of Asia culture. In the
Philippines, COSPLAY popularity soared in the past few years.
COSPLAY and modern escapism
"I have claimed, Escape is one of the main functions of fairy tales,
because I have no objection, it is plain, I do not accept the tone of
contempt or pity, so often used with the" flee "Why should a person is
contempt, found themselves in prison, he tried to go out, go home, or if
he can not do that, he thinks about other topics than jailers and
prison walls and negotiations? "
- J.R.R. JRR Tolkien -
I do not have a genuine psychologist or sociologist, but I can tell
you the approximate views, I am now, COSPLAY part of modern escapism.
The transfer of Mr. Webster, is defined as the habit of mind to purely
imaginative activity or escapism from reality or routine escape
entertainment.
I believe you will agree that we live in one of the world is full of
pressure, threats, constant noise, irritating soap opera, the sailing of
the unhealthy fast food, dazzling billboards, Overnight on Facebook.
Therefore, we need to escape - to re-adjust our focus on the pleasant or
unpleasant things, rather than the everyday world of harsh reality. We
emphasize, we do not exceed escapism, and cosplay certainly others.
It is good, otherwise boring or tense world to add a little
imagination. However, people's fantasies into reality can be tricky. I
do not know if the parents really should be worried about their young
people to express a strong desire to survive anime in the fantasy world,
perhaps they should take into account the part of the health and social
reality. And the desire to "escape" is a complex process, and find
themselves a part of. I think we all escape from the reality in
different ways.
This is my own to become the most troublesome judgment. I do not
understand how important the concept of escape and clarify escape the
exact type, I have to solve many of the actor. I admit that many
Filipino participation in COSPLAY, mainly in order to avoid own their
work, relationships, school pressure and other life troubles, such as
personal war, but a fun, competitive, or even make a living.
Escapist world of magic
Harry into this magical world, and is it any more than to leave the
world better? Only because he met a better person. The Magic did not
make his world better significantly. Relationship to his world Magic
complex in many ways his life. "
- Research K. Rowling -
Is the difference between a healthy and unhealthy escapism? In
today's reality, we can not do the escapist way of our ancestors - this
is to tell the story around the fire, or written on the cave. We are to
escape the plight of the world, reading, watching soap operas and
movies, browse the Internet, blog and so on and so forth.
As I said earlier, COSPLAY is an escape from the reality of new and
modern form. Unlike other forms of escapism, COSPLAY involved. The other
"character" a direct hit in their magical world of interactive use of
the personality of their assumptions. Regular meetings and gatherings,
and other activities, has also taken new forms of this escapism is
directly dependent on the author of the animated character.
Self-fantasy and animation in the world
Which caused the problem of the actor. This is just my theory OK.
Assume the character, I will call it a dream since it began to rival the
real world. The animation in the world due to the pure complex and
magical, fantasy, self may continue to rely on his or her escapism in
the form of COSPLAY. There are a fantasy of self-treatment of the
animation world, as a large part of a person in real life, and may
dominate the real-world possibility.
Any pressure from the animation world when the animation in the world
to become part of their real-world, will bring with them when they
enter the real world. Now, no longer COSPLAYER only real-world concern,
but also what is happening in the animation world expressed concern.
This actor who participate COSPLAY Convention home stressed, depressed -
it should only be an interesting day, walking in the clothing and
extraordinary day.
Dream of self and true self-collapse
Another possibility may be a prolonged stay in a form of escapism in
the animation world, is the real fantasy self-collapse. I repeat, this
is only a possibility, I am not a psychologist - extremely nervous but I
do not read the fine books - this is just my theory. COSPLAYER loan
money to buy clothing, skip class or work, to participate in COSPLAY
Convention, if they start claiming more than just clothing, COSPLAY.
Focus of COSPLAYER., If these actions are a clear demonstration.
This collapse of the trouble is obvious. As their real life is no
longer the focus of their attention in school, they will be shaken will
be shaken to their health, their performance will shake their social
life - often sacrifice time with family and friends and cosplaying.
Cut-off point
I guess the cut-off point is whether it can become a totally
realistic depressed, on the other side, in its extreme form, whether it
lead to compulsive behavior, so that people completely ignored the
reality of their adverse health means.
After all, I am not a health or unhealthy count the final arbiter
and, more importantly, I can not say COSPLAY 1 COSPLAYER know. I just
want to give my views and understanding to me what strange things. Who
is more extreme than I am, I respect their choice because, as I hope
they respect my views I do about my opinions or what I prefer to keep a
leisurely pastime.
I can safely conclude that the role-playing can be an escape from the
reality of the health form and the development of creativity and
self-confidence a great opportunity for. Of course, extreme adverse
effects.
