Luther Blissett, multiple name : ウィキペディア英語版
Luther Blissett (nom de plume)

Luther Blissett is a multiple-use name, an "open pop star" informally adopted and shared by hundreds of artists and activists all over Europe and the Americas since 1994. The pseudonym first appeared in Bologna, Italy, in mid-1994, when a number of cultural activists began using it for staging a series of urban and media pranks and to experiment with new forms of authorship and identity. From Bologna the multiple-use name spread to other European cities, such as Rome and London, as well as countries such as Germany, Spain, and Slovenia.〔
Cfr. Marco Deseriis,( -->Deseriis_Blissett_Cultural_Activism.pdf "'Lots of Money Because I am Many:' The Luther Blissett Project and the Multiple-Use Name Strategy" ).

Rodopi, 2010. p.65-94.
〕 Sporadic appearances of Luther Blissett have been also noted in Canada, the United States, and Brazil.
For reasons that remain unknown, though according to one former member the decision was based purely on the perceived comic value of the name,〔http://www.bbc.co.uk/programmes/b02ykrdd〕 the pseudonym was borrowed from a real-life Luther Blissett, a notable association football player, who played for A.C. Milan, Watford F.C. and England in the 1980s.〔Cf. ("Englishmen Abroad: Luther Blissett" ), TheFA.com, July 2, 2003.〕 In December 1999, the Italian activists who had launched the Luther Blissett Project in 1994 decided to discontinue usage of the name by committing symbolic ritual suicide, or seppuku.〔
Cfr. ( "Seppuku!" ), lutherblissett.net, September 6, 1999.
〕 After authoring the best-selling historic novel ''Q'' as "Luther Blissett", five of them went on to found the writers' collective Wu Ming.
==Luther Blissett's mythmaking and politics==
While the folk heroes of the early-modern period and the nineteenth century served a variety of social and political purposes, the Luther Blissett Project (LBP) were able to utilize the media and communication strategies unavailable to their predecessors. According to Marco Deseriis, the main purpose of the LBP was to create "a folk hero of the information society" whereby knowledge workers and immaterial workers could organize and recognize themselves.〔Marco Deseriis, ("'Lots of Money Because I am Many:' The Luther Blissett Project and the Multiple-Use Name Strategy" ), cit.. p. 70.〕 Thus, rather than being understood only as a media prankster and culture jammer, Luther Blissett became a positive mythic figure that was supposed to embody the very process of community and cross-media storytelling. Roberto Bui—one of the co-founders of the LBP and Wu Ming—explains the function of Luther Blissett and other radical folk heroes as mythmaking or mythopoesis:
Mythopoesis is the social process of constructing myths, by which we do not mean “false stories,” we mean stories that are told and shared, re-told and manipulated, by a vast and multifarious community, stories that may give shape to some kind of ritual, some sense of continuity between what we do and what other people did in the past. A tradition. In Latin the verb “tradere” simply meant “to hand down something,” it did not entail any narrow-mindedness, conservatism or forced respect for the past. Revolutions and radical movements have always found and told their own myths.〔Wu Ming 1, (“Why Not Show Off About The Best Things? A Few Quick Notes on Social Conflict in Italy and the Metaphors Used to Describe It” ), December 2002.〕

Another important element was relationship of the Italian LBP to the Autonomist-Marxist theory of labor known as Italian Workerism. Drawing from the work of Italian Workerists, such as Antonio Negri, Paolo Virno, Maurizio Lazzarato and others, the activists of the LBP envisioned Blissett as the expression of the capacity of immaterial workers to produce forms of wealth that cannot be properly measured and attributed to an individual producer. The incalculability of these new forms of labor is articulated in the ("Declaration of Rights of Luther Blissett" ), redacted by the Roman LBP in 1995. In this manifesto, the LBP claims that because in late capitalism any social activity can potentially generate value, the culture and media industries should guarantee a basic income to every citizen detached from individual productivity:
The industry of the integrated spectacle and immaterial command owes me money.
I will not come to terms with it until I will not have what is owed to me. For all the times
I appeared on TV, films, and on the radio as a casual passersby or as an element of the
landscape, and my image has not been compensated . . . for all the words or expressions
of high communicative impact I have coined in peripheral cafes, squares, street
corners, and social centers that became powerful advertising jingles, without seeing a
dime; for all the times my name and my personal data have been put at work inside
stats, to adjust the demand, refine marketing strategies, increase the productivity of
firms to which I could not be more indifferent; for all the advertising I continuously
make by wearing branded t-shirts, backpacks, socks, jackets, bathing suits, towels,
without my body being remunerated as a commercial billboard; for all of this and much
more, the industry of the integrated spectacle owes me money!
I understand it may be difficult to calculate how much they owe me as an individual.
But this is not necessary at all, because I am Luther Blissett, the multiple and the multiplex.
And what the industry of the integrated spectacle owes me, it is owed to the
many that I am, and is owed to me because I am many. From this viewpoint, we can
agree on a generalized compensation. You will not have peace until I will not have
the money! LOTS OF MONEY BECAUSE I AM MANY: CITIZEN INCOME FOR LUTHER
BLISSETT!〔English translation available in Marco Deseriis, ("'Lots of Money Because I am Many:'The Luther Blissett Project and the Multiple-Use Name Strategy" ), cit.. pp. 76-77.〕
