content: This series contains African-related sound recordings. Some are Karp's field recordings of Iteso stories; interviews; and music, including performances by Obasie Palinyang. A few of these are marked as copies of originals held at the Indiana University Archives of Traditional Music. There are also recordings of the "Performance in Contemporary African Art" conference held in Racine, Wisconsin, in 1985; Karp's talk at a screening of a Gisu initiation film; and a Smithsonian Radio broadcast featuring an interview with Karp regarding music in Iteso possession ceremonies.
