Would love to talk with you with time about your Harbin Hot Springs' ethnographic thinking and re Chloe Conger's thesis which I think you guided - https://web.archive.org/web/20070125003710/http://www.stanford.edu/dept/anthroCASA/pdf/newsletterV2.pdf - http://scott-macleod.blogspot.com/2010/10/sri-lanka-rock-actual-virtual-harbin.html. I think we share much in common in our interpretations. (Thanks to Chloe Conger for sending me her undergraduate thesis as I was writing "Naked Harbin Ethnography: Hippies, Warm Pools, Counterculture, Clothing-Optionality & Virtual Harbin," and thanks to Nelson Graburn for writing the Forward to my "Naked Harbin Ethnography" as well).


My actual-virtual Harbin Hot Springs' project continues and for my next Harbin Hot Springs' ethnographic book, I seek to create a realistic virtual Harbin for actual-virtual, physical-digital comparison, and by developing a new social science method I'm calling ethno-wiki-virtual-world-graphy - https://scott-macleod.blogspot.com/search/label/ethno-wiki-virtual-world-graphy.

I'm also seeking to teach a course comparing my "Naked Harbin Ethnography" and "Coming of Age in Second Life: An Anthropologist Explores the Virtually Human" both at Stanford and at World University and School concurrently, potentially online (and possibly as a conversation with Tom Boellstorff):


Bipedalism: "Naked Harbin Ethnography" Chapter Titles, Summaries and Table of Contents, for MacLeod’s "N.H.E.: Hippies, Warm Pools, Counterculture, Clothing-Optionality & Virtual Harbin," Boellstorff’s Coming of Age in Second Life, Chapter summary comparisons

Endemism: Reed College course with Scott MacLeod's "Naked Harbin Ethnography" book, reading Tom Boellstorff's "Coming of Age in Second Life" in parallel in the first nine weeks?, "Actual/Virtual Ethnography: ethno-wiki-virtual-world-graphy," Here's a beginning syllabus for a course I'm tentatively entitling, Having sold my "Naked Harbin Ethnography" book (no sales though) in person (a first ever) at Reed yesterday, I've kind of come full circle with my first book and re agency or individualism even (and with an economic "good" - a book which costs $64.95) vis a vis 'society and information technology' as a kind of social "structure"
