Art and Life in Africa CD-ROM Description
The Art and Life in Africa program is an interactive
CD-ROM that recontextualizes African art in the cycle of life. Using

their lives to solve problems, overcome adversity, and meet the
unique challenges of life in an African environment. Discussions
include topics such as "Key Moments in Life," "Art and Human
Abundance," "Art and Education," "The Arts of Governance and Social
Order," "Death and the Ancestors," and "The Changing Face of African
Art," among others.
The CD includes over 10,000 images of 600 objects and 750 field
photographs; 107 ethnographies; 27 ethnographic maps; 1400 entries in
a bibliographic database; 11 chapters; 36 essays; video and music
clips. Features include a fully searchable Index, and a Slide Show
Maker for creating custom presentations.
