Material culture refers to the touchable, material things-physical objects that can be seen, held, felt, used-that a culture produces. Examining a culture’s tools and technology can tell us about the group’s history and way of life. Similarly, research into the material culture of music can help us to understand the music-culture.

This all part of the information revolution, a twentieth century phenomenon as important as the industrial revolution was in the nineteenth.
