OFFICIALLY OPEN FOR REGISTRATION KHO KHONG KHO: A Methodological Frameworks for Documentation & Digital Archiving of Performing Arts & Cultural Practices Project

The “Methodological Frameworks for Documentation & Digital Archiving of Music & Performing Arts” project is a research and educational program, funded by Queen’s University Belfast, United Kingdom, with the main partner being the Dom Dom Experimental Music Center in Vietnam.
Archiving and documenting music are important, but are often overlooked in the process of researching and practicing music, culture, arts, and heritage in Vietnam. Through this program, we aim to develop tools and techniques for methods and documentation of traditional & ethnic music, while bringing together researchers and Vietnamese musicians to explore methodologies for documentation, and to build necessary research capacities towards the creation of a Vietnamese cultural archive.
In this way, we also aim to contribute to the preservation and enhancement of the value of traditional music heritage, promote the development of music research & music industry in Vietnam while establishing domestic and international partnerships among researchers and artists.
