Interacting With Babylon 5 Fan Performance in a Media Universe
- Binding: Paperback
- Publisher: Univ of Texas Pr
- Publish date: 07/01/2001
Kurt Lancaster opens with a background analysis of Babylon 5, including creator-producer J. Michael Straczynski's online interaction with fans. Then he thoroughly examines the performance aspects of all the participatory media surrounding the show -- the role-playing game, collectable card game, war game, CD-ROM "guidebook", fan fiction, and web pages. His use of performance theory offers a new way of understanding the enormous popularity of imaginary entertainment environments and the fandom surrounding other popular sites of science fiction and fantasy, including Star Trek, Star Wars, and J. R. R. Tolkien's Middle-earth.
