Dancing Upside Down

Digital Ethnography & Michael Wesch

Recently I was introduced to an amazing short video by Michael Wesch.  Michael Wesch is a cultural anthropologist and media ecologist exploring the impacts of new media on human interaction also known as Digital Ethnography.  He is an Assistant Professor of Cultural Anthropology at Kansas State University. 

The video was created by using CamStudio for the screen
captures and Sony Vegas for the panning/cropping/zooming animations. He mentions that someday he might make a video tutorial for those who are interested.  I sure hope he does! 

Another thing that I found exciting is that Wesch has only been teaching for four years and he is rocking the world – through his
use of Social Media and his study of it!!
