Creative Development: The STEAM Inherent In Hip Hop Culture

Instructor: Craig Arthur, Program Director and Co-Founder of VTDITC Hip Hop Studies at Virginia Tech and Associate Professor of Practice in Virginia Tech’s Academy of Transdisciplinary Studies.

Join the VTDITC: Hip Hop Studies at Virginia Tech team as we demonstrate and explain the science, technology, engineering, art, and mathematics of the Hip Hop arts. You’ll get to witness and try your hand at two of Hip Hop culture’s traditional creative practices: DJing (both mixing and scratching) and beat making. After we explain the science behind what we do, we’ll happily answer any questions you have and provide advice on how you can start creating. We look forward to learning with you!
