Dust To Digital

<p>Dust-to-Digital was founded in February 1999 by Steven Lance Ledbetter, a radio disc-jockey at WRAS, Georgia State University in Atlanta (Georgia, USA). They specialize in producing cultural artifacts that combine rare recordings - mostly taken from 78 RPM records - with historic images and detailed texts describing the artists and their works.</p>

3 CD, one DVD and Book Set. This watershed release represents the life’s work of William Ferris, an audio recordist, filmmaker, folklorist, and teacher with an unwavering commitment to establish and to expand the study of the American South.William Ferris was born in Vicksburg, Mississippi in 1942. Growing up on a working farm, Ferris began at a young age documenting the artwork, music, and lives of the people on the farm and in his local community. The archive of recordings that he created and the documentary films that he had a hand in producing have served as powerful tools in institutions of higher learning for decades. It is with great excitement that we present these films and recordings. Our hope is that the enjoyment and educational value that has been received by Ferris’s students over the years will be transmitted to listeners around the world and further the understanding of Southern culture.
