Communication professor Josh Kun, pictured, is part of the production team on an upcoming collaborative music project called "Jewface." Kun joined forces with former Interscope Records executive Courtney Holt, former Warner Records executive David Katznelson and music critic Jody Rosen to release the album, a compilation of Jewish-themed pop recordings from earlier eras. The vaudeville songs, such as "When Mose With His Nose Leads the Band," were performed by Jews at the turn of the century as an effort to make light of their stereotyped culture and better assimilate into American society. "We're all kind of disaffected American Jews, who aren't particularly religious, don't really practice and don't really lead very Jewish lives at all," Kun told The New York Times. "Digging up these recordings was really about figuring out who we were in this world." The CD, which will be released on the Reboot Sterophonic label, will soon be available at record chains like Virgin, as well as Amazon.com and iTunes.
