Video: Mimi Ito at UMSI

This week, we were delighted to have Mimi Ito, anthropologist and scholar of digital media and youth, visit the University of Michigan School of Information as the annual speaker for the John Seely Brown Symposium. Ito’s work looks deeply at the connections youth — usually teens — are making in both interest-driven and friendship-driven groups (her terms) and their lives in a digital landscape. The complete footage is above (click here if the video does not appear).
