  1. Bringing plenty of #solarpunk to #worldcon this year. I'm especially looking forward to presenting my ethnography on Sunday! It's the culmination of over a year of research that I can't wait to share.

    Aside from my panels, come play a game of Solarpunk Futures with me on Friday... and be sure to ask me for some thematic badge ribbons ;)

    See you at #lacon @LAcon !

  3. Discovered while doing ethnographic research for a public library district. I was touring one of their branches when this caught my attention.

    It’s genius. Smartest solution I’ve seen for this common problem.

    Librarians could save the world if we’d let them. 😉

  5. 💁🏻‍♀️ TIL: 🐕🧬 Archaeologist Peter Mitchell’s new #book draws on #archaeology, #genetics, and #ethnography to argue that #dogs and #humans evolved together as partners over roughly 15,000 years.

    Dogs developed specialized traits matching each region’s #climate and needs, from #Arctic sled dogs built for hauling to agile #tropical hunting dogs, resulting in a varied set of co-evolutionary paths across the globe.

  7. I am wondering what the examiners (and maybe future researchers if someone else will ever read my thesis) will make of the answer I got from a kid when I asked:

    "What did you like about the Eden Project?"

    "The ice cream. Their ice cream was the best"

  9. New website, new #introduction!

    I'm Rhys, a storyteller, #librarian, and #archivist living in Leicester, UK. I use they/them pronouns.

    I have a rich background working in multimedia #storytelling, oral #history, guerrilla #journalism, and #ethnography. More recently, I’ve expanded into #libraries and #archives.

    Outside of work, I’m a budding #gardener, #solarpunk, nature #photographer, #druid and #anarchist. I’m proudly #neurodivergent (AuDHD) and #queer.

  10. New study compares 60 ethnographic and 49 archaeological societies and finds burying the dead at home was far more common in the deep past than anthropologists realized, before colonialism and religious conversion reshaped the practice. #Archaeology #Bioarchaeology #Ethnography #Burials #Culture anthropology.net/p/the-dead-wh

  12. "Because they are removed from their original contexts in time and space (which can never be recovered), and recontextualized in others, the meanings of material forms preserved in museums are problematic." Marilyn Strathern, "Learning to See in Melanesia"

  16. Maybe it's a rather far shot but, could anyone out there share their experience using OpenQDA for qualitative research? And has at least comparative experience using QualCoder or MAXQDA/Atlas.ti? ​:neocat_boop:​

    Concerning coding text and analysis, usability and reliability. I'm not interested in any of the AI related functionality, just bog standard social sciences qualitative analysis
    ​:neocat_thumbsup:​.
    *Oh, please spare me ye old school recs like using Excel/Word for coding text segments
    ​:neocat_boop_googly:​.*

    Thank you! Boosts appreciated

  23. "It's a cold winter morning ..." This is a kitsch opening and has nothing to do with #ethnography. Why do non-anthropologists so often think that something becomes 'ethnography' if you start a new paragraph by writing about the weather? #peerreview #methodology
