Digital Music Ensemble is a technology-based interdisciplinary performance troupe that collaborates in the creation and performance of new works of art and performs historically innovative works. Headed by University of Michigan Professor Stephen Rush, DME uses methods of open-ended critical inquiry to challenge meaning in the creation, realization and performance of art.
