[Air-L] Subcultures and virtual communities

[Burcu Bakioglu]

Hi Eloise,
A fellow graduate student from Communication and Culture, who is currently
in my dissertation group, is writing about hip hop subcultures, though his
research doesn't involve virtual communities. But he knows a lot about the
topic. His name is Mark Benedetti. Let me know if you'd be interested in
contacting him and I can introduce you two...

Tnx.
