So, I sat down with anthropology professor (and fellow Fulbright grantee) John Bodinger de Uriarte to talk about how the museum plays with our ideas of authority and reality, why gift shops in Reykjavík are \"museums of imagined Icelandicness,\" and more. \nThe song in this episode is Þjráhyggja by JóiPé x Króli.\n_______\nMuseums in Strange Places is a podcast for people who love museums, stories, culture, and exploring the world.
