Our classroom DH values are:
Collaboration-interdisciplinary and transdiciplinary with being open to wokring with others
Experimentation-Embraces the scientific method (hypothesize, test, refine). To be perfect is to never get better at anything, trial and error
Openness-Open to others: allows collaboration/involvement of others
Diversity-DH allows work without gate keeping
Aim to build more diverse gender, race, bodily abilities, language than traditional in humanities
Transparency-Data sources AND Methods must be revealed & shared
Transparency connects research/creativity to Publication/Dissemination
Musicology values are:
Social-Music is of undeniable value as a sort of social glue and agent of solidarity, helping to create, maintain, and strengthen a sense of community. Music is notably more effective in this regard than almost any other art form.
Aesthetic-This, arguably the fundamental value of music as such, is the value of experiencing music’s patterns and qualities for their own sakes—a value that is accessed when we appreciate a piece of music for the distinct individual it is, formally, expressively, and in its specific fusion of the two (Levinson, 2009).
Idiosyncratic-Music can have value for a given listener that need not be shared, or even shareable, with others. Music’s idiosyncratic value is a matter of the way some music speaks to someone in a completely individual way, resonating with his or her specific memories, associations, history, and physiology.
