Wow, so two years later, and 100000 views! I had no idea when I wrote this that it would take off like it did. I was invited to Philadelphia to play this song at the AAA meeting in 2009, and interviewed by Lorenz Khazaleh for antropologi (which you can read at www.antropologi.info if you like). By far the best part is, I still am getting amazing messages from you folks from all over the world! Thanks so much, everyone; it's been really fun to be part of this :) I graduated with a BA in Anthro and Religious Studies in May '09 from the University of British Columbia. I wrote this song while pursuing my Masters at the University of Toronto, which I completed in 2010. During that time I also worked as an Anthro TA and won a teaching award from the university, in part because of this song. If you leave a comment, especially if you've watched this in a class, I'd love to know where/what school you're from. The chords are super simple: Am, C, G, D. Feel free to learn it, play it, reappropriate it, share it, and add your own verses! Also, any video responses are welcome. *** Lyrics: Hey Mom & Dad, I've got to come out and say, I've got to tell you, it's the only way Something I've learned about myself since I was away (at college) I really think that I might be a little bit -- of an Anthropologist Mom & Dad, I've been led astray, I've been experimenting with archaeolog(a)y On an excavation, tried C-14 dating And ground penetrating radar for the first time -- (if you know what I <b>...</b>

About 15 years ago, Grant McCracken went to a shopping mall to interview teenagers about their identities. He found that the old rigid categories of "preppie," "jock," and "nerd," had given way to a much longer list: There were surfer/skater guys, b-girls, goths, punks, heavy-metal rockers, and many other types of kids wandering around. In books such as Plenitude, McCracken catalogued the explosion of new lifestyles and identities in North America and the developed world more generally. In his most recent volume, last year's Chief Culture Office, McCracken argues that an understanding of how consumers play with their identities is key to making products that people want. His next book, Culturematic, will be published next year and examines how people create self-replicating cultural experiments that producers and audiences either dig or reject. One example: MTV's invention of reality television in 1992, just as the station's old programming model was beginning to flag. Out of a moment of desperation grew today's dominant form of serial TV. Trained in anthropology, the Canadian-born McCracken is a research affiliate at Convergence Culture Consortium at MIT and a brand consultant; his blog covers everything from arcane academic research to Gossip Girl plot threads. Reason.tv's Nick Gillespie sat down with McCracken to talk about the throughline that exists in all of his work. Edited by Jim Epstein; camera by Epstein and Anthony Fisher. Approximately 8 minutes.

Mimi Ito is a cultural anthropologist and expert in the field of digital media and learning, focusing on children and youth's changing relationships to media and communications. She recently completed the Digital Youth Project, a landmark study supported by the MacArthur Foundation of the ways youth use new media. In September 2010, she was appointed as the John D. and Catherine T. MacArthur Foundation Chair in Digital Media and Learning at UC Irvine. Ito emphasizes the need to put aside prejudices against new media in order to harness their potential as learning tools: "I think there's a more general perception in the culture around new media [...] that it is inherently a space that is hostile to learning. And that's a perception that I think we really need to work against." (4:46) "We know that the learning outside of school matters tremendously for the learning in school. [...] The question is: how can we be more active about linking those two together?" she adds. (5:33) Mimi Ito is a Professor in Residence at the Department of Anthropology and the Department of Informatics at the University of California, Irvine, and serves as Research Director of the Digital Media and Learning Research Hub in the system-wide University of California Humanities Research Institute.

Here he talks about his work, and watermen Robert Daniels, Dickie Webster and Art Daniels talk about their lives. Produced and directed by Michael W. Fincham, Maryland Sea Grant.
