Cross-cultural podcasting from la Ruta
Maya
04/05/2005 07:03 PM
Xeni Jardin: Boing Boing reader Dave Pentecost has been traveling through southern Mexico with his pal Nicco, and they've just uploaded some podcasts and photos of their travels. Snip:
I just returned to the Maya highlands from Naha, in the Lacandon jungle. 24 hours ago I was watching young Lacandones struggling to dock their dugout cayuco, a transport technology now being forgotten after thousands of years of Maya navigation. 48 hours ago I promised a traditional elder and his son both VHS and DVD copies of my footage of them from 25 years ago, then went to see the incense burner gods in Antonio's temple, and visit his jungle milpa to pick up maize from the corn crib.

(...) Yes there is leveling, but I have to believe there are still sharp divides, between two places a 6 hour drive apart, or between two neighborhoods in New York. Managing this frontier will occupy many of us in the next years. What interests me is the persistence of culture and cultural differences through these world-flattening phases. It happened here to the Maya in the Spanish conquest, the exploitation of the jungles, and the diffusion of roads and communication. But the old ways remain embedded in the new. Remix on a global scale.

Link. Dave says there's more to come and adds, "We also want to direct folks to Ed Barnhart's site -- the Maya Exploration Center in Palenque, Mexico -- as we start an experiment in peer-to-peer exploration."
