Re: [Air-L] Short internet ethnography suggestions
I would suggest Jeff Lane's soon to be released ethnography "Digital Street" on young people in Harlem. An extensive online/offline ethnography based on five years of observations, dealing with poverty, gangs, violence, dating and more. https://amzn.to/2RYqamh He published a journal article, early observations that does a nice job of explaining the need for why ethnography of digital subjects needs offline components: https://journals.sagepub.com/doi/abs/10.1177/0002764215601711?journalCode=ab...

Hi Everyone!
I have agreed to teach a guest lecture on ethnography for a friend's undergraduate research method course and I'm wondering if people in this group might have suggestions for a really great reading. I really want to give them a reading that is itself an ethnography (rather than being a piece about ethnography or how to do it), and that deals with some aspect of technology or internet and society, perhaps incorporating both online and offline ethnographic methods. Perferably something published in the last 8 years to keep it contemporary. I have tons of favorite ethnographic pieces in this vein, but the problem is most of them tend to be books and I don't think you can get a good feel for these works by just reading one chapter. So does anyone have suggestions about short readings, perhaps, a journal article, that fit the bill?
Thanks in advance for any suggestions!
Eleanor

Hi Eleanor, Undergraduates have enjoyed my New Media and Society piece "Every Selfie Tells a Story...." The piece, relatively short in nature, draws on three years of connective ethnographic data to examine LGBTQ youth lifestreaming. You can find it here: https://www.academia.edu/17227874/_Every_Selfie_Tells_a_Story_LGBTQ_Youth_Li... Hope you find it useful!
