Tanzanian cassette digitization project

This report contains the interim results and project documentation for the Tanzanian Cassette Digitization Project (TCD). The first section contains results of and recommendations for the project as of August 2011. The second section contains the workflows and technical apparatus that documents current procedures and preserves information about the organization of the digital objects. This document was written and compiled by Jesse Johnston over the summer of 2011. The notes are meant to provide a snapshot of the project at the end of August, as well as to facilitate the continuation of the project and provide documentation of the cassettes. This will help to ensure that individual songs can be located for research purposes over a long-term period. Tom Bray set up and checked most of the lab equipment on 24 June 2011.
