“tambay” by Dayang Yraola

An Invitation to “tambay”

24 September, 2-4PM
Center for Ethnomusicology (UPCE), 2F Jose Maceda Hall, College of Music, University of the Philippines, Diliman

This is an informal gathering for the participants of R2 monumentED, U.P. Center for Ethnomusicology staff, and selected students of the U.P. College of Music.  The UPCE gave a tour of the new archive, library, instrumentatrium and studio, as well as showed samples materials from the collection. The participants of R2 monumentED gave a brief presentation about their projects. Dayang Yraola, as curator and a media archivist, facilitated a discussion on the theme: monumenting/ monumentalising—the discursive role of memory institutions in reassigning values. This gathering  contributed inspiration in the art production of the R2 monumentED participants, as their interaction with the UPCE staff enriched the young archivists-ethnomusicologists experience on the embeddedness of their respective roles in the bigger society.
