In this episode, Matt speaks with folklorist Trevor Blank about digital folklore, including creepypasta, and its role in shaping how creepy subjects are discussed. Matt and Trevor also discuss why folklorists were slow to accept that online folklore is, in fact, folklore. Along the way, there are detours into prison folklore, Slender Man, and Bloody Mary.

In our first bonus episode, Hannah sits down with two vampire hunters in a very serious interview exploring the real life implications of real life vampires. This episode was hosted by Hannah Wright and edited by Tal Minear. The transcript was done by Rook Mogavero. This episode was originally published on April 1, so you can be sure that there's no shenanigans here. None at all. The transcript is here. Are we far enough into the show notes yet? Look away if you haven't listened to the episode yet! Alright... April Fools! I suspect you caught on, but these are not real life vampire hunters. Or vampires. We think. In this silly bonus episode, Helvetica was played by Brooke Jennett, a brilliant voice actor and producer on the excellent horror anthology podcast Thirteen (fans of horrifying audio drama, you have to check it out). Drakkon was played by Mason Amadeus, cohost of the nonfiction podcast Digital Folklore, and one third of the hilarious comedy show PodCube (if you want more ridiculous improv like this episode, PodCube's the show for you). Our serious bonus episodes will start, along with the first of our letters from our good friend Jonathan Harker, on May 3.

Welcome to another installment of Digital Folklore Unplugged. Unplugged episodes are all about stripping away the fancy production elements so that we can give you access to raw (or slightly edited) interviews with folklore experts. This is part two of our interview with Dr. Lynne McNeill. If you've not yet listened to part 1, you can find it here… but that's not really necessary to appreciate today's discussion. Lynne McNeill's name is nearly synonymous with the study of Digital Folklore. Her work and her voice has been instrumental in helping people understand that our online world is just an extension of our lives… and it's not only a place where folklore can arise… but thrive at a speed and scale previously unimaginable. In this episode, Lynne shares her thoughts about the value of studying folklore academically, how digital platforms influence the types of folklore created on them, the concept of Poe's Law, examples of digital legend tripping, her favorite urban legends, and more… This is an action packed episode that you won't want to miss. Ok, let's get unplugged… Guest: Dr. Lynne McNeill (Twitter) (Website) Videos: Lynne's TEDx Talk: Folklore doesn't meme what you think it memes And a great lecture by Lynne: CWG Brown Bag: Lynne McNeill Paranormal Caught on Camera's Lynne S.

Defying Convention (Memes, Conspiracy, & Communication) Despite their best efforts, the gang cannot stop the flow of time and MEMExpo is upon them. Perry and Mason venture into the convention looking for someone to essentially do their presentation for them. As it happens, they encounter Josh Chapdelaine of Digital Void for an insightful conversation about memes and online communication. After failing to con Josh into presenting for them, the Digital Folklore crew encounters Dr Kristina Downs. After buying out all of the merch from the Texas Folklore Society booth, she agrees to do the talk - presenting on the strange online commentary following the theft and/or escape of several animals from the Dallas Zoo. In this episode: Black Software by Charlton D. McIlwain. Memes in Digital Culture by Limor Shifman. A veritable scavenger hunt of meme references in the background. The Dallas Zoo animal thefts. Perry says "Macaroni with the chicken strips". Guests: Josh Chapdelaine, creator and educator with Digital Void.

The Links Between Us (Algorithmic Identity, Goncharov, and Tumblr) With MEMExpo looming tomorrow, the Digital Folklore gang pulls an all-nighter trying to piece together a presentation. They speak with Dr. Cassandra Pfeifer about identity and online communities, as well as the effect of algorithmic content curation on our sense of identity. Then, they call up Lauren Shippen and Cherokee McAnelly from the Dashboard Diaries podcast to talk about Tumblr's uniqueness as a platform, and Goncharov - the greatest mob movie never made. Plus, loads of easter eggs from the internet era of the early aughts! In this episode: The mystery of the 'p' in 'pH' None Pizza with Left Beef How the current college-age generation views their online folk groups vs their offline folk groups. The way algorithms effect our worldview, and vice versa. Goncharov - Martin Scorsese's most important film (that he never made). Tumblr's unique userbase & culture. Guests: Dr Cassandra Pfeifer, author, educator, and folklorist. Lauren Shippen & Cherokee McAnelly, hosts of the Dashboard Diaries podcast. Featuring voice acting from: Brooke Jennett of THIRTEEN as Digby.

On today's show, Perry sits down with Jayson E. Street to discuss his unique blend of social engineering, physical penetration testing, and security awareness. Jayson refers to this as being trained by a simulated adversary. At the heart of Jayson's method is intense boldness in his approach to social engineering and penetration testing coupled with an equally intense passion for helping his clients and their employees improve their overall security posture and mindsets. It's about education rather than exploitation. Guest: Jayson E.

There has been a lot of buzz for the past few years about the benefits and importance of establishing security champions programs. These are groups of people in your organization who become vital, responsible, and proactive contributing evangelists to the security culture of your organization. I often refer to them as "culture carriers." And, while there is general agreement that these are good programs to have, establishing them is currently a bit of a dark art. On today's show, Perry sits down with Sarah Janes of Layer 8 security to discuss the importance of champion programs and tease out a few best practices.

Una scoperta affascinante grazie a uno dei miei podcast preferiti, Digital Folklore, vi metto il link a fondo pagina. La parentesi di Gutenbert si è chiusa con l'invenzione di internet, quando siamo tornati a tramandarci le cose usando il linguaggio orale, da molti a molti, mettendo in secondo piano la supremazia dell'autore unico che, grazie alla stampa, era in grado di cristallizzare la storia e rivendicarne l'originalità.TRASCRIZIONE [ENG translation below]Oggi voglio parlarvi di un concetto affascinante che ho scoperto grazie a uno dei miei podcast che al momento è tra i miei preferiti Digital Folklore, folklore digitale. Cos'è il folklore digitale? Ma prima di tutto, cos'è il folklore?Per folklore non si intende costumi e tradizioni di gente vestita con gli abiti di 100 200 anni fa. Il folklore è inteso come storia orale che viene tramandata da persona in persona, oralmente.Ed è proprio qua che si allaccia, che nasce il concetto di 'parentesi di Gutenberg', di cui non avevo mai sentito parlare. Allora, prima dell'invenzione della stampa, le cose venivano tramandate in modo orale, perché solo i ricconi e le persone del clero, che spesso erano le stesse, sapevano leggere, sapevano scrivere, poi avevano i soldi per avere i libri che venivano scritti a mano dagli amanuensi.Una volta che è stata creata la stampa da Gutenberg, si è anche democratizzato il concetto di scrittura e di lettura. Non dico che tutti avessero i libri, però sicuramente sono stati più alla portata della popolazione in generale. Non solo, ma mentre prima dell'invenzione della stampa le storie venivano tramandate oralmente, con l'avvento della stampa c'è proprio la supremazia della scrittura, che quindi la storia veniva cristallizzata, così era e nessuno poteva metterlo in discussione, perché era nero su bianco, e poi anche ha molta più importanza, la figura dell'autore unico, che era quello da cui la storia emanava.Bene, questo è durato tutto il periodo, dall'invenzione della stampa fino all'invenzione di internet, perché con internet è questa una cosa veramente geniale, vista da questo punto di vista, si è tornati a quella che era la situazione orale prima dell'invenzione della stampa. Adesso chiunque può scrivere su internet, quindi c'è una comunicazione da molti a molti, e infatti così nascono le storie, nascono le leggende urbane, nasce il folklore che viene ancora una volta, come prima dell'invenzione della stampa, passato da persona in persona con una grande differenza, che mentre prima per fare il giro non dico del mondo, ma anche di una nazione, una storia impiegava settimane, mesi se non anni, adesso è tutto molto più semplice.Una storia, un meme fa il giro del mondo in pochi secondi, esce la mattina e la sera è già cambiato. E un'altra differenza è che se prima, con la storia orale, non si sapeva mai l'origine delle storie, adesso con internet invece non solo si hanno le storie orali tramandate, ma si può anche risalire esattamente alla prima volta che è stata, si è parlato di una determinata storia. Affascinante!TRANSLATIONToday I want to talk to you about a fascinating concept that I discovered through one of my podcasts that is currently among my favorites Digital Folklore. What is digital folklore? But first of all, what is folklore?Folklore does not mean costumes and traditions of people dressed in the clothes of 100 200 years ago. Folklore is understood as oral history that is passed down from person to person, orally.And that's where it ties in, that the concept of the 'Gutenberg parenthesis' was born, which I had never heard of. Back then, before the invention of printing, things were passed down orally, because only rich people and clergy people, who were often the same, knew how to read, knew how to write, then had the money to have the books that were handwritten by amanuenses.Once printing was created by Gutenberg, it also democratised the concept of writing and reading. I am not saying that everyone owned books, however, they were certainly more within the reach of the general population. Not only that, but whereas before the invention of printing, stories were passed down orally, with the advent of printing there is really the supremacy of writing, that therefore the story was crystallised, it was as it was and no one could question it, because it was black on white, and then also gains much more importance, the figure of the sole author, who was the one from whom the story emanated.Well, this lasted the whole period, from the invention of printing to the invention of the internet, because with the internet is this a really genius thing, seen from this point of view, you are back to what the oral situation was before the invention of printing. Now anyone can write on the internet, so there is a communication from many to many, and in fact this is how stories are born, urban legends are born, folklore is born, which is again, as before the invention of printing, passed from person to person with one big difference, that whereas before to make the rounds of not world, but not even a nation, a story took weeks, months if not years, now it is all much easier.A story, a meme goes around the world in seconds, it comes out in the morning and by evening it has changed. And another difference is that if before, with oral history, you never knew the origin of the stories, now with the Internet, on the other hand, not only do you have the oral stories handed down, but you can also trace back exactly to the first time it was, a particular story was talked about.

Welcome to Digital Folklore… Unplugged Edition. “Unplugged” is a new, additional, episode format type we're trying out.  Digital Folklore episodes labeled as “Unplugged” will be much more like traditional interview-based podcasts. Whereas our standard episodes tend to focus on a fun way to present a single topic or set of tightly related topics, Digital Folklore ‘unplugged' is about showcasing our interviewees… and so will often touch on a wide range of topics in a single interview.  Today's guest is GennaRose Nethercott. She is a folklorist, an author, a poet, and is also a researcher & producer for the podcast Lore. She's won a National Poetry Series award for her book, The Lumberjack's Dove… and her most recent book, Thistlefoot, a reimagining of Baba Yaga that she somehow effortlessly weaves together with American road adventure, the complexity of sibling relationships, and puppetry…  What you are about to hear is a roughly 45 minute excerpt from our full hour and 30 minute interview with GennaRose. If you're a Patreon supporter, you can head over to Patreon for access to the full interview where you'll hear about GennaRose's life as a child clown, her quest to secure a bell tower to work from, what it was like to win the National Poetry Series, the writing of Thistlefoot, and more… That's all on Patreon. We pick up here with a discussion of folklore, urban legends, and the interesting time we find ourselves in, which is enabled by social media and other forms of mass public online expression…. Ok, let's get unplugged… Guest: GennaRose Nethercott (Twitter) (Website) Books (Amazon Associate Links) Thistlefoot: A Novel The Lumberjack's Dove: A Poem

This week, we would like to introduce you to Digital Folklore, a new podcast distributed by Realm.

Their names are Slenderman and Momo, and they are great examples of a few key folkloric concepts. So join us as we take a look at Slenderman and Momo and learn about ostension, monster theory, moral panics, and the defining traits that make something folklore as opposed to just a simple online expression of creativity.

This week, we would like to introduce you to Digital Folklore, a new podcast distributed by Realm. Digital Folklore is an immersive audio adventure that takes place inside a fictional universe, but explores the real-world truths behind various expressions of internet culture and how each holds up a mirror to the society from which they emerge.  This episode introduces us to two "monsters" who were birthed on the internet, but couldn't be contained there. Their names are Slenderman and Momo, and they are great examples of a few key folkloric concepts. So join us as we take a look at Slenderman and Momo and learn about ostension, monster theory, moral panics, and the defining traits that make something folklore as opposed to just a simple online expression of creativity.

Can you believe it's been 50 years since the very real film Goncharov came out in very real movie theaters? We're celebrating the anniversary by bringing on the brilliant Perry Carpenter and Mason Amadeus from the podcast, Digital Folklore. We talk about how Tumblr created its own folk legend in inventing a movie whole cloth from a knock off shoe. Yes, you heard that right. A shoe. Listen to Digital Folklore here: https://digitalfolklore.fm Follow us on Tumblr at dashboarddiaries.tumblr.com to see the posts we talk about on this episode or email us at dashboarddiariespod@gmail.com! Dashboard Diaries is a production of Atypical Artists, hosted by Lauren Shippen and Cherokee McAnelly. Our theme was composed by Lauren Shippen and mixed by Brandon Grugle. Art by Shae McMullin.

Digby is at the 'vet', while Perry & Mason review a fascinating interview on LARP... After the tumultuous and ambiguous events at the end of the previous episode, Perry swings over to Mason's place again. The pair talk through that strange thing that happened with their RSS feed, some potential production decisions for the future of Digital Folklore, and also plan out their interview episode about Live Action Roleplay featuring Tara M. Clapper. There is so much more to LARP than fighting with foam weapons (although that in itself is extremely fun). It provides a safe space to engage in empathetic roleplay, a venue for self-improvement, and a community around the creation and sharing of lore and stories. Tara dishes her wisdom on the subject, and shares just how transformative and important LARP can be! And now Mason wants to find a group to play with. Guests: Tara Marie Clapper, game designer, writer, editor, digital content manager, and creator of Geek Initiative.

Monsters and Mental Healthcare - Vivian Asimos & Kathleen Hale This is the first of our 'Folk' episodes, where we share longer excerpts from our interviews! We talk with Dr. Vivian Asimos about the importance of storytelling and narrative, what makes a monster significant, and a deeper analysis of how of Slenderman - and the circumstances around his creation - catapulted a legend into our collective consciousness. Then, we'll hear from author Kathleen Hale about her journey to uncover details around the Slenderman stabbings in Wisconsin, the surprising insights she gained about our juvenile justice system, and a discussion about access to mental healthcare services in the United States. We'll also meet Mason's pet raccoon (and unofficial Digital Folklore mascot) Digby!

For the last episode of season 3, I thought we'd talk about something that's been in the news quite a lot recently: Authentication and Password Managers. As security professionals, we've decried the password for decades. Multifactor authentication (MFA) has started to gain popularity... but not without its own issues. Security leaders and tech teams may have once again hoped for a silver bullet, only to be disappointed to find out that crafty attackers can easily bypass MFA. We've also been touting the benefits of Password Managers for quite a while. After all, in a world where most of us have to manage upwards of 200 passwords in a year, who can keep up? No human can have great password hygiene across all those accounts. But password managers also face their own problems as illustrated by a recent high-profile incident. Our guest today is Roger Grimes. He has a multi-decade cybersecurity career and is the author of 13 cybersecurity books, countless articles, and is a highly sought-after industry luminary. ... Oh -- and he has opinions. Listen in as Roger and I discuss the current state of authentication, MFA, password managers, and more. Guests: Roger Grimes (LinkedIn) (Twitter) Want to submit a question to have answered in a future episode? If you've got a question or comment that you'd like me to try to answer or respond to, leave a voice message at https://www.speakpipe.com/8Li. Frankly, that would make it more engaging than if I just read your questions. But, if you aren't able to record a message or don't want your voice on the show, then you can email me your questions at perry@8thLayerMedia.com. I'd love to hear from you and answer any questions you have about my thoughts on security topics, creativity, online culture, podcasting… or anything else you have on your mind.

On this episode, Perry speaks with Chris Cochran and Ron Eddings. Chris and Ron started the Hacker Valley Studio Podcast back in June of 2019 with the goal of exploring the human condition to inspire peak performance in cybersecurity. The podcast is about Chris and Ron's quest to find inspirational stories and knowledge to elevate themselves and their communities. That podcast eventually kicked off a journey that led them to create their own podcast network (Hacker Valley Media), foster communities, and they recently partnered with SANS to create the Difference Makers Awards. Chris and Ron are passionate about cybersecurity, leadership, creativity, and podcasting — and so on today's show, you'll hear us touch on all of those topics and more.

In the subgenre of analog horror, there's something sinister or supernatural lurking in the horizontal lines and vertical holds in those old VHS tapes. Filmmaker Chris LaMartina explains why he wanted his movies WNUF Halloween Special and Out There Halloween Mega Tape to seem like live broadcasts taped off local TV news in the ‘80s and ‘90s. I talk with podcasters Perry Carpenter and Mason Amadeus from the show Digital Folklore about how The Internet became our new campfire to tell spooky stories. Plus, we hear from Alex Hera, director of the documentary The History of Analog Horror, and folk horror lecturer Diane A. Rodgers of Sheffield University about why people born in the digital age want to tell horror stories set in the distant yet familiar era of VCRs. In this episode we also discuss The Mandela Catalog, Local 58, and The Backrooms. This episode is sponsored by Birds of Empire, and Brilliant. Our ad partner is Multitude.

Today we look at the top Digital Trends of 2020, from the fun to the profound. Each year folklore students at Utah State University track digital trends. They then meet at the end of the year to prepare a ballot that goes out to a national panel of experts in digital folklore, which selects the winning trend. Top results for 2020 include #BreonnaTaylor and #GeorgeFloyd, as well as the meme: “How It Started/How It's Going/How It Ended,” and gender-reveal, presidential election, and Zoom meetings memes.
