Collaborative Investigative Composing (CIC): where stories & music meet
At CIC, journalists, filmmakers, and composers collaborate to tell underreported stories of social injustices via music and film. With projects on inequities Mexican immigrants experience, humanitarian crises in Venezuela, democracy dismantled in Belarus, grave misogyny in Mexico, and the aftermath of gun violence in the U.S., we use journalistically sound and artistically engaging practices to debunk misinformation; counter censorship; lift up silenced voices; and reveal the agency, resilience and gifts of people who have been marginalized. Through our innovative cross-disciplinary collaboration, we call for public awareness and action.
