Welcome to the website of the DEKKMMA project (Digitalisatie van het Etnomusicologisch Klankarchief
van het Koninklijk Museum voor Midden-Afrika / Digitization of the Ethnomusicological Sound
Archive of the Royal Museum for Central Africa). This project is a joint-effort of the
Royal Museum for Central Africa (RMCA), Université Libre de Bruxelles and Ghent University,
and its mission is to digitize the entire ethnomusicological sound archive of
the RMCA.
"Project description" provides a detailed project outline.
Furthermore, the site offers the possibility of searching the ethnomusicological archive of the RMCA for instruments and recordings from Central Africa.
Remark: Because digitization is a lengthy process, information available on the website is augmented on a daily basis. Thus some information has yet to be entered or translated. Our apologies for this inconvenience.
