AbstractThis lecture will address the issue of non-official cultural production in contemporary mainland China, using the example of the punk-rock movement. The development of the punk scene was stimulated in the 1990s by the appearance of dakou CDs and tapes, sold on Chinese main cities’ black market. In a political regime that tightly controls cultural production, Chinese punks had to rely on their own strengths to produce CDs, posters or fanzine. Hence, this lecture will explain how Chinese punks used the D.I.Y. (Do It Yourself) philosophy, to produce and release underground material contents.
