FYSP 004 - Cleveland Scene Semester Offered: First Semester Full Course Credits: 4 credits Attribute: 4HU, WINT
What does it really take to know a city? The word ‘scene’ conjures ideas of setting and cultural practices, and perhaps specific musics and subcultures, but these only scratch the surface. We will get to know Cleveland from the perspectives of its music scenes (and related renaissances in sports and arts), but also from perspectives that demand greater intimacy (oral history research on lifeways and musics of both integrated and ethnic/immigrant industrial neighborhoods) or, conversely, greater critical distance (Cleveland’s sonic and visual mediation, as both the butt of TV jokes and the setting of classic films like Major League). Field trip(s) required.
Enrollment Limit: 15 Instructor: I. MacMillen
