  1. GEOG 433 Presentations and Synthesis of the Course

  2. Housekeeping Items • Major assignments are due today. • Ryan will do his genre presentation. • After that, we will hear from anyone who hasn’t shared their final project, as we did last week. And we will also hear Melissa, Doug and Ryan’s performance of their multi-genre mash-up! • Then we will try to pull together some of the threads of the course. • A reminder that the exam will be like the mid-term – short answers and essays – and will start with soul music.

  3. Course Themes & Concepts • *colonialism *migration *diaspora *cultural hearths *cross-fertilization *adaptation/ innovation *'cultural appropriation' *urban vs. rural *technologies of communication *professional vs. amateur music production *instruments and recording technology *commercialization and role of mass media *racism and other forms of marginalization *music as a means for articulating/ asserting cultural and ethnic identity *music as a form of resistance/ agent of change. • We will do a review for the final on Thursday.
