@UW_Archy269@MackieMesser001 What are ephemeral events? Ephemeral can be defined as not permanent. An example of this would be the Woodstock Festival held in Bethel Woods, New York 1969
@MackieMesser001@UW_Archy269 This just shows how the chaotic ephemeral nature of the event really took on a life of its own. In terms of trash, archeologists didn't find much, surprisingly. Which played into the festival's environmentalist ethos.

@MackieMesser001@UW_Archy269 Many vendor booths were found, but not in the original place that organizers intended. When excavating the site archeologists found booths made out of readily material such as boards, rocks, and trees.
@MackieMesser001@UW_Archy269 Woodstock was extremely ephemeral. It included three days of music and culture, blurred by a haze of heavy drug use. It can never be recaptured.
@UW_Archy269#UW_Archy269 The “cali deck”, named after the street it’s on, is a lookout point in my neighborhood where I often find myself looking out into the puget sound. It brings me great comfort and is an amazing place to go when I feel overwhelmed as it is extremely calming
@UW_Archy269 The archaeology of homelessness is to examine how homeless people adapt to their given environment while also understanding the remains and material culture they left behind #UW_Archy269
@UW_Archy269 De Leon demonstrates the power, story, and hardship behind debris and artifacts left behind by migrants. Their deaths were not forsaken, as what they left behind serves as remembrance within their communities while also fueling advocacy and change #UW_Archy269
@UW_Archy269 during the pandemic when UW was completely remote, i would shift my desk and bed every month in order to make my room feel “new” again. each new/changed environment helped me feel productive and motivated to do school!! #changeofscenery#UW_Archy269
@UW_Archy269 Can’t live without my computer! I use it every day to do school work, listen to music, watch Netflix, etc. We love technology! #UW_Archy269
@UW_Archy269 The way I see archeology is through the lens of dissecting, analyzing, and learning about the different cultural, human, and worldly experiences throughout time. This is done through the examination of artifacts, objects, and other material goods! #UW_Archy269
