This webinar explores music production as a form of youth work and how the benefits have been quantified and reported.
Focusing on ‘labelled’ youth, we explore the intersection between youth work practices and spaces (both real and digital), in particular, that of the recording studio. The research papers presented in the webinar collectively investigate how music shapes and structures youth – both constructing and characterising the experiences of diverse groups of young people – and go on to question how these impacts have been measured, and could be measured in future.
There will be presentations from Frances Howard (Nottingham Trent University) on bedroom culture to ‘the booth’, Brian McShane (Coventry University) on youth work in the studio space and Simon Glenister (Noise Solution) on well-being impacts of digital youth work and music mentoring.
