Old and young/Old or young?

I am really happy to have the opportunity to get back to my research by doing a presentation for a workshop. My task is to create something inspiring about the age discussion, or at least that is the way I am going to do it. It is great to be able to exclude the typical header "marketing to seniors" and dig a little bit deeper in the cultural discussions concerning age as a concept. So I have made a wonderful little "mash-up" of pictures, caricatures, texts and music to show some example of how we construct age in our society. Please listen to my spotify-list as an example of how age is constructed in some lyrics: http://open.spotify.com/user/suokannas/playlist/5pWF40xBRguDc2mc8oHxGV
