Abstract

This paper presents the concepts of scene (Straw, 1997, 2006) and cybersubculture (Bell, 2000 and Caspary & Manzenreiter, 2003) in their relevance to the study of social communication processes, production and dissemination / distribution of information In the context of cyberculture. From the theories of cyberculture and British post-subculture studies we proposed the discussion of the concepts in relation to some concrete practices of communication and sociability of the electrogoth / industrial subculture on the Internet.
