[Dancecult-l] Archive of Rave and Club Culture

[nyesean at mac.com]

Dear Colleagues,

I am a PhD candidate in the Comparative Studies in Discourse and  
Society program at the University of Minnesota and am currently based  
in Berlin. Much of my work in Berlin is with the Archive of Youth  
Cultures, an amazing media archive, mostly of German subcultures, that  
includes more than 20,000 fanzines. www.jugendkulturen.de. We will  
soon have better English language web presence, so stay tuned.

I would like to announce our special project here to expand our  
holdings of EDM cultures into the first official Archive of Rave and  
Club Culture. Please see the attached press release. Our EDM  
collections are already the largest in Germany - over 3,000 EDM  
fanzines, hundreds of press clippings and countless flyers. Above all,  
I hope you will consider donating copies of your scholarly work to the  
archive (we also have a library of about 100 books and academic  
publications). Most of the books are in German, and I am working to  
expand the English language scholarly holdings. Your work will in this  
way easily be made better known to the many scholars and journalists  
that pass through Berlin. Finally, if you also have any EDM material  
(fanzines, flyers, clothes, etc) that you would wish to donate, we  
would greatly appreciate it.

Please contact me if you have any questions or comments.

And once again, please see the attached press release and forward it  
to interested parties.

Best wishes and thanks,

Sean Nye
Archive of Rave and Club Culture, Berlin
