VCUN on the Anthropological World Wide Web

Because I don’t ever seem to learn my lesson, I agreed to a few other blog posts on various anthropological outlets. As we are just home from the field, I have had the high rise and matters of making visual on my mind. I started off with a process piece over on the blog Savage Minds. It was a chance to write out what it is like to work together without eclipsing the other’s modalities. Next, I was invited to write as part of a ‘literary experiments in ethnography’ series on the Centre for Imaginative Ethnography’s website. Taking advantage of having just been in the field with Gen, an astute fiction writer, I decided to craft a short piece of ethnographic ‘faction’ (it is a word) using both of our observations from the High Rise elevator. I called it Going Up. See what you think!
