The DADA Project

I thought I knew what Dada was, but I had no idea ...

During the Spring term of 2007, as part of my Master of Arts in Liberal Studies (MALS) coursework at Duke University, I will be conducting an Independent Study in Dada -- it's origins, it's influences, it's players, it's meaning and where we find it today. This Independent Study is designed to allow me to complete the first half of what will be the final product of this project: an hour-long audio documentary. I intend to keep this site updated with the progress of my project.

One of many sites - I like this page. It's mostly about sound poetry.

Neo-Dada site - has lots of good links itself.
