CORE 002 SC - Collective Cultural Experiences of 1970’s NYC

This course will explore how the disco era and hustle culture (including music, dance, fashion, light/sound technologies) in the 1970s club spaces of the South Bronx and New York City ignited creativity and fostered community. Students will learn how to utilize key elements of disco club culture–music, DJ, fashion, spatial technologies, queer and straight integration—to create their own dance party and how all of this can be used to negotiate social change.
