    Summary

    “I realized that we’re now at a point of self-reference with the Internet culture that there’s almost no there left, you know? It’s important to make new things. It’s important to make culture, rather than simply reference it. I love a good cultural reference, and it’s one of the great joys in my life, but it has to all be in balance with the core job, which is to make something new.” - John Hodgman

     

    Internet culture in America has been infamous for taking any crumb of juicy gossip and blowing it up to ridiculous proportions. This, of course is due to the public's insatiable thirst for famous figures to exploit and curiosity to know what they have no business sticking their nose in.

    [A spin on the time-honored classic, "Marinette's Class Trip to Gotham City, America" coupled with world building, celebrity and paparazzi culture — topped with the media and online discourse.}
