I hope I'm posting this to the right place -- I've been looking for an email contact for the Beastie Boys, and this is the closest I've gotten.

I'm hoping to score a high-res copy of the video for Open Letter to NYC for academic reasons. Seriously.

I teach geography, and one of the topics I cover in my class is the way that society socially constructs place.

I've been a huge fan since Licensed to Ill, and would love to play the video for my class so that we can then pull apart the lyrics and show how a number of geographic theories about place show up in this fantastic song.

So, if an admin out there can help me out with this request, gimme a hollar.

You can find it on the Solid Gold Hits DVD which came out last month.

What geography class is this for? We never covered anything remotely close to this in high school or college.

Yo, I'm teaching a class on cities and society starting in January. I'd love to know what geographic theories you're talking about so that I can pass them on to my students too. Teachers recognize teachers, please.
