Anthropology - UMBC: Audio/Video/Images

UMBC elective

Audio

Association for Cultural Equity

Over 17,400 digital audio files, beginning with Alan Lomax’s first recordings onto (newly invented) tape in 1946 and tracing his career into the 1990s. Not a single piece of recorded sound in Lomax’s audio archive has been omitted: meaning that microphone checks, partial performances, and false starts are also included.

Videos

Ethnographic video online (Alexander Street Press)
