I’m so showing my relatives over the holidays. No one ever seems to really understand what anthropologists do or why i want to be one. Now i have an awesome song that says it all. Thanks for giving us ANTH peeps another voice.

I’m finishing my undergrad in cultural anthro and am coming to the AAAs this year for the humanistic anthropology awards…I think your performance could fit very nicely somewhere between ethnographic poetry and the photography competition?? Anyways, it’s always great seeing other anthropology students I relate to. Please let us know when and where if you’re going to sing!

Peace and sunshine,
Brynn Champney

The wonders of anthropology…

I’ll add that I love your bedroom decor too, while I’m at it- very anthro-crunchy 😉

It’s pretty great (and flattering!) to see my video posted to Savage Minds, wow, thanks! As for the chord progression, it’s available in the written commentary section of the video on the actual YouTube site, at http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=LHv6rw6wxJY. You’re welcome to learn/use/change/play the song; I’m just glad people are enjoying it 🙂

Where can I get the chord progression?

That one’s going straight on my Intro to Anthropology course website. Just in time to have them all be humming it all at the mid-term exam!

Good luck!

One more bit of powerful evidence that anthropology is bigger, more awesome and easier to circulate than the latest consultant’s report might suggest.

When asked to explain the difference between folklore studies and anthropology, one good illustration is that it is hard to imagine Ms. Cooper singing her fine song in the lobby of a Hilton during a AAA meeting. Whatever other differences there are, the American Folklore Society sets aside time and space for such things. (This Saturday in Boise, from 9-12 to be exact.)
