[Dancecult-l] Dancecult online bibliography

After much procrastination (on my part) and a lot of hard work (on 
Eliot's part), http://www.dancecult.net has slipped the blocks, and 
is floating in the area. Many thanks to Eliot for producing the site 
(especially while in the field in Istanbul), including the banner.

Please feel free to add entries to the bibliography, your details on 
the scholars/researchers page, and other relevant web resource links. 
We've already started the bibliogaphy but this needs a lot of 
attention for those with some spare time. Would be great to see it 
grow.

The site is fairly bare right now - suggestions welcome.

>Hello fellow danceculters...
>
>An early and ongoing issue raised by Graham, myself, and many others has
>been creating an authoritative bibliography of electronic dance music
>culture references.
>
>After several weeks of collaboration, Graham and I are proud to announce
>a new site:
>
>http://www.dancecult.net
>
>Which currently contains the following:
>  - an ever-growing bibliography of books, book chapters, journal
>articles, dissertations, and lectures/presentations
>  - scholar listings (with web links)
>  - web resources, including articles, resources, conferences, and journals
>
>The best part of this is that you can contribute online, helping the
>bibliography grow. If you notice that your book is missing, or know of
>articles that should be on the bibliography, just use the convenient
>online form to submit it. If you're a scholar of EDMC, post your
>personal site under the "people" section. Know of an upcoming
>conference? Post it in the web resources conference category. All
>submissions are moderated (we're trying to keep out spam and unrelated
>articles) - meaning that after Graham or I approve it the post will be
>public.
>
>The website is coded in unicode, so that foreign-language submissions
>will show up correctly (please add spanish, french, italian, dutch, and
>german language EDMC articles!) Though we're not currently filtering the
>bibliography by language, that kind of feature would be very easy to add
>in the future. Post to the list or email me privately if you know of
>languages we need to add.
>
>Also, there is a "URL" field for all bibliographic entries. If you know
>of an online version of the article (or, for example, know the google
>books URL for sections of the book in question), post this here.
>Hopefully we can all spend more time participating in raves or other
>electronic music events, and more time being productive scholars, and
>less time trying to search for obscure references!
>
>This site has room for expansion - Graham and I are talking about films,
>documentaries, and other multimedia sources - but let's get started with
>the print sources and websites, and see what kinds of expansion would be
>most relevant.
>
>Let us know what you think!
