- Class Notes:
- Under capitalism, musical content creation, performance, recording and audio reproduction technologies overlap with one another in complex and contradictory ways. In this course we'll discuss various approaches to the labor of music making, the intricate histories between musical production and technology, the emergence of music as a commodity (published, recorded, performed, licensed, streamed) and the widespread evolution of the global music industry. This course will take a Marxist perspective on the economies of music and launch into broader conversation about income inequality, intersectional analysis, vocational vs. avocational labor and ultimately, the medium - and long-term viability of the capitalist mode of production itself.
