Tom Boellstorff
December 1st 7:45 PM
Marriott Balcony A
I will explore futures for anthropology in the study of digital culture, as well as futures of digital culture for anthropological work. The discussion will include methodological questions of the digital as a focus of ethnographic research, and advocacy for the role of anthropology in scholarship on digital culture. Finally, I will address how anthropology can contribute to theoretical debates regarding the digital and the human, as well as political debates regarding our human futures—online and offline.
