ENCRUZILHADAS CYBERATLÂNTICAS NAS ROTAS DE ÁFRICA: MÚSICA E DISPUTA PELA MEMÓRIA NA FORMAÇÃO DE ACERVOS DIGITAIS
Main Article Content
Abstract
As digital technologies are increasingly present in our day-to-day activities and
access to information over the Internet has been gradually increasing, many of the content that
was originally produced analogically is being scanned around the globe. The format of
museums and collections of traditional research has been systematically replaced in digital
platforms, either through the digitization of these collections and their availability in platforms
on the Internet, or through the work of colecctors without institutional links that has been
promoting a greater democratization of the knowledge. As the internet is also a space for
struggle for memory, the existence of electronic sites such as blogs allow a greater possibility of
access to non-hegemonic cultures, as is the case of music produced on the African continent.
This research aims to understand the process of the formation of archives for the digitization of
collections of African music and its availability on the Internet, problematizing the roles that
music can play in the representation of the memories and cultures of these peoples
contemporaneously through the networks in the internet.
