In this episode, we explore what it’s like to create born digital projects in India with support from the two AIIS research centers: the Center for Art and Archeology (CA&A) and the Archives and Research Centers for Ethnomusicology (ARCE). Both units share an online archive and digital exhibit space, the Virtual Museum of Images and Sounds, that you can visit and browse at vmis.in.
The DIL Summer Student Fellowships for Digital Sonic and Visual Projects has supported two cohorts of students in 2022 and 2023 to travel to India and conduct research at the CA&A and ARCE under the fantastic guidance of Dr. Vandana Sinha and Dr. Shubha Chaudhuri.
We will hear reflections on the process of creating the 2023 DIL summer digital exhibits from beginning to end with Arya Adityan, a graduate student in the Department of Religion at Florida State University, Ava Bush, an undergraduate student completing her B.A. in Art History at Tulane University, Balakrishnan Raghavan, a graduate student at the University of California, Santa Cruz, Jamphel Shonu, a graduate student in the Department of History at Pennsylvania State University, and Tyler Thom, a graduate student in the Department of Ethnomusicology at the University of Denver. We’ll begin with a conversation at the beginning of the summer program and then catch up with the participants after the program has ended.
