Engaging scholars in "Music and Peace" & "Business and Peace"
May 12, 2017: SUMMIT
A day that brought together national and international researchers,
activists, and artists who currently focus on two major fields
of interest – “Music and Peace” and “Business and Peace” –
in a series of presentations and discussions.
Friday, May 12, 2017| William and Gayle Cook Library, M285
Indiana University Jacobs School of Music
As the first summit of its kind, the project actively juxtaposed and cross-pollinated a wide range of intellectual and artistic practices in the belief that a coherent set of understandings can emerge on how the two disciplines interact with and co-inhabit their worlds. The day was a discovery of ideas that will lead to larger efforts in the future.
Guest participants included Alexander Bernstein, Carolyn Calloway-Thomas, Andre De Quadros, Timothy Fort, Constance Cook Glen, Kathleen Higgins, Aida Huseynova, Nancy Love, Cindy Schipani, Scott Shackelford, Ruth Stone, Olivier Urbain, and Gerald White. Please click here for full bios >
The day-long session was designed to be open-ended and exploratory; a vetting of the nature of new interdisciplinary dialogue. Participants gathered in Bloomington, Indiana, as well online as they connected through interactive live-streaming,
Summit Planning Team: Alain Barker, Timothy Fort, Constance Cook Glen, Aida Huseynova, Scott Shackelford, Ruth Stone.
