Songwriters, Videographers, NewMedia creators, and Teachers: do you want to expand your craft and the depth of your work by bringing in more history, be it family, world or local? How do we approach telling our cultural histories/experience against the backdrop of a present and past America in ways that people will listen? Come join us for a methodology/general approaches workshop with Dr. Julian Saporiti of No-No Boy, an ethnomusicologist who, across multiple albums, has shared the untold histories of the many and varied "Asian-American" experiences on stages such as the Lincoln Center, NPR's World Cafe, Weekend Edition, and schools and campuses across the USA.
Called a "Master Storyteller" by All Music, Saporiti will share his process for finding and incorporating history, place, culture, and sound into good old fashioned, singable, and danceable rock and roll.
So share this with the songwriter/Storyteller in your life.
We hope to see you there.
In the Black Box theatre at the MAC
Free and open to the public.
