Anthropologists no longer a primitive tribe?

Well thanks for the links Lorenz!
Since I’ll be in the mix of the podcast project I’ll week it’s unlikely I’ll get to attend any other sessions- but I’ll be sure to post about the reception by folks at the conference about the podcasts. The podcasts were inspired in part by you in a way, your wanted to know more about the conferences led me to believe there might be a demand for such a thing

Thanks, cool. There’ll be a demand, at least in the blogosphere. I’m looking forward to the first anthropology conference postcasts ever.

But I suppose not all researchers like to be filmed and postcasted?

Hi there,
It’s actually going to be audio-only recordings this time around. There are plans in the works to continue this next year and I hope to add video then. We’ve had a surprisingly warm welcome thus far- only one speaker has declined to be recorded and almost everyone else has actually thanked me! We did session TH-123 and 153 yesterday with the folks that set the tone for anthropology these days (Whiteford, Singer, Farmer, Bourgois, Fassin, Bylko-Bauer, Nordstrom, Quesada) and all of these presenters were thrilled! I think that the fact they support it will make others more receptive (or at least that’s what I’m hoping!)

Great. This is good news, and deserves a new post
