“Hipster culture is omnipresent,” says Peter Furia, a founder of Seedwell Digital Creative Studio in San Francisco. “It dominates fashion, music and lifestyle. It crosses borders of ethnicity, socio-economic status and sexual preference \u201d\u201d something that we haven’t seen since the boom of hip-hop culture.”<\/p>\n
Furia’s studio is producing a documentary-style Web series, American Hipster \u201d\u201d for its nascent YouTube channel \u201d\u201d that will debut in April 2012. “What’s funny is that people who aren’t hipsters generally express distaste for them and those who appear to be hipsters hate to be identified as such. Everybody hates hipsters … especially hipsters. And the ironic part is that hipsters’ opposition to pop culture has become pop culture.”<\/p>\n
