I CAN HAZ BLOG?

​Welcome to my site, foodandfieldwork.com. I’m a foodie and an ethnomusicologist, and this site blends these two passions in both title and substance.
On this site I’ll be featuring several different topics:
  • Gluten-free recipes, both my own and those tweaked from a wide range of sources
  • GF dining tips! Which places are accommodating, which places are delicious, and which places say “What do you mean you can’t eat meat?” when you say that you can’t eat wheat.
  • Ethnomusicology: discussions of fieldwork, trends in the field, my personal research, and some projects that I think are excellent/intriguing. My main topics of interest:
    • Medical ethnomusicology: how does this nascent genre (at least in title) connect to broader discussions, theorizations, and practice of the arts and healing connection(s)?
    • Digital, hybrid, and in-person social capital: How does the digital and device omnipresence detach us and connect us to each other? How do technological shifts and advances affect arts consumption? Is something lost? Gained?
    • Music and sports: In what ways does music, whether recorded or live, ameliorate the sport experience? I particularly focus on baseball and the role of the walk-up song.
    • Music torture/music and conflict: What are the underlying aspects to music’s deleterious effects, when it also serves as one of life’s greatest gifts?
  • Food trends and food science: what scholar trained in anthropological methods isn’t fascinated by the rapid-fire shifts in food production, consumption, and delivery (both visually and physically)?
There will also be some discussion of the life of the academic parent. You know you’re an academic parent when you find yourself crafting papers such as “Gendered and Racialized Discourse in Bob the Builder.”
I welcome feedback, suggestions, and reflections. Thank you!
