My pardons for x-posting!

I recently read a journal article in which an emergent sexual
practice/subculture ("dogging" -- see citation below) was conceptualized as
(roughly) an assemblage of bodies, technologies, spaces, and antecedent sexual
practices and subcultures.

Although my research is concerned with well-established, long-standing, and
global subcultures (graffiti artists and goths), the "assemblages"
conceptualization might solve some on-going problems with the way that youth
subcultures have been framed (in past and recent scholarship), while also
accounting for local variations. I write to ask:

*What are the key readings for understanding the geneology of "assemblage" as a
way of framing cultural practices/communities?

*Are you aware of any scholarship dealing with subcultures (youth or otherwise)
that put this framework to use?

Thanx for the always-insightful responses of the academic e-communities! Please
respond on-list!

love and kisses,
