Fascinating #folklore project: a #map of #folk tunes gathered by Oskar Kolberg, great ethnographer of 19th century, to listen and download. Mostly territories of Commonwealth of Both Nations (that is, today's #Poland, #Lithuania, #Belarus and #Ukraine), but also #Lusatia, #Slovakia, #Slovenia, #Croatia, #BosniaHerzegovina and #Serbia. Sadly, not linked to lyrics, music only, but still a delightful journey.

As Kolberg worked in 19th century, his works obviously do not contain recordings, but the map gives #MIDI, #MusicXML and #EsAC.

Researchers from UCL's Centre for Outer Space Studies (COSS) have been working on the EthnoISS project, which looks at social and psychological aspects of sharing that unique place amongst a a variety of nationalities and cultures.

Lessons learned and similar themes are explored in their new open access book: Exploring #Ethnography of Outer Space: Methods and Perspectives.

Ethno-ISS patch, a blue mission patch with an outline of the ISS, and ETHNO-ISS and ЗТНО-МКС (Cyrillic) round the edge. There's a sort of green tartain pattern on a globe, alluding at the ground track of the ISS orbits.
COSS Patch. A purple and black mission patch with a globe, 3 pointed stars and a swoosh, and the letters UCL at the bottom.
Cover of the book, a photo of an astronaut in a green & white suit, in what appears to be a room lined with glass cabinets, containg samples bottles of various colours and sizes..
