Hello Everyone,
Next Week we will be having a "Hot Topic" discussion. (Thanks to Kat
for the idea!) The "Hot Topic" up for discussion, conversation, and
debate will be copy right issues as they pertain to ethnomusicology
and fieldwork, publication etc.
Michael MacDonald will be leading the discussion. Michael is "an
ethnomusicologist of popular music at the University of Alberta
currently holding a postdoctoral teaching and research fellowship in
Canadian Folk Music. His research area focusses on folk music and
community collective action and its interface with the
industrialization of music culture. He is particularly interested in
the role folk music plays in the production of a folk subjectivity and
the role this social identity may play in the creation of more
equitable and just societies."
