MaMuMi “Mapping the Music of Migration” è un progetto pan-europeo sulle tradizioni musicali di due anni finanziato dal programma Erasmus+, incentrato sulla musica e sulle canzoni come strumenti di conoscenza interculturale. Prevede la raccolta, l’editing e il caricamento di “Song Stories”, storie sulla musica in un’app interattiva. Queste storie si concentrano su “tracce ereditarie”; le canzoni o la musica che i migranti hanno ereditato, la cui discussione funge da piattaforma per la consapevolezza della diversità nei seminari specifici del progetto MaMuMi chiamati “Song Worlds”.

Obiettivi del progetto

Il progetto mira a utilizzare lo storytelling sulla musica come meccanismo positivo per contrastare gli stereotipi e per attivare spazi di discussione.

Obiettivi Specifici

Offrire ai migranti uno spazio in cui possano usare la musica per raccontare storie di canzoni e quindi rafforzare l’autostima e l’importanza in un ambiente nuovo o ostile

La Music Migration Map sarà un’app interattiva gratuita che metterà in evidenza le storie e i viaggi dei migranti.

MaMuMi Audio Collection (Case Studies)

This audio collection stores the MaMuMi song stories in one accessible digital archive. It is an innovative audio library of song stories. The output has high transferability potential; individual stories can be accessed and used by NGOs, policy makers and arts organisations to illustrate individual stories around migration. Its expected impact is in its capacity to affect change in attitudes towards migrants and to provide evidence of shared histories and experiences amongst migrant groups in host nations.

Music Migration Map (App)

The MaMuMi Music Workshops will deliver individual stories about music and song. These stories will be added to a virtual map. When the user clicks on a place, they will hear the story (and clips of the song) and trace that individual’s migration journey, from and to their current location. Individuals will remain anonymous (unless they indicate otherwise). The Interactive App will be suitable for phone, tablet and computer.
