Zactly. Christopher Moot is kinda there already, but until 4Chan + /b/ is
"decoded" and rendered [significantly] palatable by a set of art movement
"honers" [think: Bridle with "The New Aesthetic kinda" deal] who can
conceptualise/frame the splatterpunkish anarchy into something akin to
channelled subversion, then it'll stay "underground" [only in terms of an
institutionalised view, obviously]. Maybe u and I should do it, Rob?;)

By the way: a warning to all other netbehaviouralists - *please* be careful
if searching /b/, 4Chan at large or Encyclopedia Dramatica. They are full
of [potentially] explosively offensive content [think NSFWx a gazillion].
