About Us
Methodology
The BSU Music & Society Digital Archive is a collaborative tool, a curated platform, and a working collection at the same time – showcasing student work in the creative arts on a platform designed, developed, and maintained by students in STEM. Content includes student compositions derivative of an array of curricula and performance at BSU and diverse enough to include artworks and imagery, film documentaries, sound and concert recordings, and written essays. For example, Labor Movements and Identity Protest of the 18/19th century is a short documentary discussing the intersection between social movements and musical representation of political turmoil during the Labor Movement. Another example of a professional recorded arrangement of the Buchenwald song, a student arrangement recorded at Ball State.
