David Buyze

David is a writer on music and culture for Atwood Magazine. He has a PhD from University of Toronto, and is a professor at several universities including TCU where he teaches courses on David Bowie; British Music & Memoir; and Music, Fashion & Style in the MLA program. He enjoys exploring innovative ways to write on music and culture and review music through the prism of his own experience and as a surveyor of cultural dynamics. David views the transformative power of music as an existential force that transcends cultures, identities, and one that shapes human relationships in highly illuminating ways across time and memory.
