Multi-Media Universe

Visit the three worlds of Youth Service Project's Multi-Media Universe: YSP's Tribase Recording Studio, YSP's Computer Technology Center (CTC) and Hewlett Packard Digital Lab and the Universal Music and Art Shop!

YSP's Tribase Recording Studio is designed as a training space for youth skill development, musical experimentation and fun! The curriculum, developed in partnership with Columbia College Chicago's Sound Department, teaches youth about music appreciation, music business, and audio production.

Created in partnership with DePaul University's Egan Urban Center, the Community Technology Center (CTC) provides young people with lots of exciting activities! Young people work on graphic design projects using complex software programs, and complete post-production work and create marketing materials for studio projects. In addition, the CTC is the site for YSP's accelerated e-Business program, an intensive program that focuses on e-commerce, e-business and web development. Developed in partnership with Hewlett Packard, the HP Digital Lab provides young people the opportunity to learn about photography, technology and community.

Music recorded in the studio and art produced in the CTC and the HP Digital Lab will be sold in YSP's Universal Music and Art Shop (UMAS) - a retail music store that is more than just a place to buy CD's - it is also a training ground for youth to learn about customer service, entrepreneurship and business development.
