What happens when the sound (music) of religious ritual is turned into a media product, transformed into a commodity circulating within a media system? What questions must be answered in order to describe such a transformation completely? (for instance: what is mediated and what is not mediated? How are media products circulated? What is the radius of circulation? Who buys them and how are they used? How are intellectual property rights resolved? Who profits?)
Are meanings, effects, functions of religious music thereby transformed? Does the religious system itself change? What is the impact on the music system?
Please think about these questions, and add other questions that may occur to you as well, below. Also try to find:
- scholarly articles or web sites discussing this topic
