By exploring indigenous people’s knowledge and use of sea ice, the SIKU project has demonstrated the power of multiple perspectives and introduced a new field of interdisciplinary research, the study of social (socio-cultural) aspects of the natural world, or what we call the social life of sea ice. It incorporates local terminologies and classifications, place names, personal stories, teachings, safety rules, historic narratives, and explanations of the empirical and spiritual connections that people create with the natural world. In opening the social life of sea ice and the value of indigenous perspectives we make a novel contribution to IPY, to science, and to the public

(J3 Music Studios). Climb the mountains of Peru and enter Siku's world, a place where melodies drift through the hills and valleys. Sing along with Siku, a young alpaca who breaks the rules in order to express herself by singing and humming the songs in her heart. This storybook helps children explore the musical element of melody. Siku's song is like the pan flute's voice, clear and strong. A companion CD includes a pan flute party jam track, an audiobook of the story, and easy-to-sing "Siku's Song," written and performed by Julia Jordan Kamanda and her students.
