Instead of focusing just on musical performances themselves, I think I’m going to examine the audiences as well. I think it would be interesting to observe the dynamic between the music or musician and the type of audience and how they react to certain types of music.

I think instead of doing a hip-hop culture study, I talked with Dr. Quinn and it sounds like I might be able to do something with the Hearing Impaired and how they interact and how there spatial distances may be different. Still Tweaking, but I think that would be really interesting.

For my project I’m thinking about studying the art of preaching. I’m not sure if this is a definite plan yet. However, I want to start looking at different churches in the downtown area which I might like to conduct my field research. Particularly, I’d be interested in looking at AME churches or [...]
