Hooked on Gqom: an ethnographic study of a contemporary urban youth musical identity in South Africa

- Description: Gqom music has grown from being a relatively obscure sub-genre of South African Kwaito into a globally recognised sonic identity and social movement. Gqom, as a distinct music style, has featured heavily in mass media since 2015, spawning social phenomena such as viral dance challenges on various social media platforms, and constituting a launch pad for the careers of musicians such as DJ Lag and the Distruction Boyz. Gqom also featured in the international motion picture Black Panther in 2018, and in the 2019 Lion King: The Gift album by American pop icon Beyoncé. Although the origins of Gqom, its characteristics, impact, and ascension to noteworthiness have received attention in the form of newspaper articles, online blogs, YouTube documentaries, etc, and small treatises or academic articles, little literature has been generated about the music and its theoretical construction as sonic and social phenomena. I argue that by using the theoretical scaffolds of ‘identity politics’, specifically ‘identities in music’, one is better able to understand Gqom as reflective of a broader social urban youth identity characterised by partying and political disillusionment. In other words, I make the case for an intergroup identification that prioritises in-group musical identities associated with Gqom and its phenomenology of practices which I have excavated using an ethnographic qualitative method. , Thesis (MMus) -- Faculty of Humanities, School of Visual and performing Arts, 2022

- Description: The high-spin states of the nucleus ⁷²Ge were populated via the ⁷°Zn(a,2n)⁷²Ge fusion-evaporation reaction at a beam-energy of 30 MeV. The ')'-decays were observed with the AFRODITE spectrometer array at iThemba LABS (Faure, South Africa). Twenty-seven new transitions, 18 new levels and 2 new bands were added to the ⁷²Ge level scheme, and several corrections were made to t he previously-known level scheme. Transitions were characterised using Directional Correlation from Oriented states (DCO) and polarisation measurements, and spin-parity assignments were made for 7 new levels. Spin and parity were also reassigned to a previously-known structure. One of the new bands was ident ified as part of an octupole-vibrational band. No tetrahedral states were observed in the scheme despite N = 40 and Z = 32 having been identified as tetrahedral magic numbers. The meaning of the new 14⁺ yrast level for the underlying structure of the ground state band is discussed

Agreement and coordination in XiTsonga, SeSotho and IsiXhosa: an optimality theoretic perspective

- Description: This thesis provides a unified Optimality Theoretic analysis of subject-verb agreement with coordinated preverbal subjects in three Southern Bantu languages: Xitsonga (S53), Sesotho (S33), and isiXhosa (S41). This analysis is then used to formulate a typology of agreement resolution strategies and the contexts which trigger them. Although some accounts in the Bantu literature suggest that agreement with coordinate structures is avoided by speakers (e.g. Schadeberg 1992, Voeltz 1971) especially when conjuncts are from different noun classes, I show that there is ample evidence to the contrary, and that the subject marker used is dependent on several factors, including (i) the [-HUMAN] specification on the conjuncts, (ii) whether the conjuncts are singular or plural, (iii) whether or not the conjuncts both carry the same noun class feature, and (iv) the order of the conjuncts. This thesis shows that there are various agreement resolution strategies which can beused: 1) agreement with the [+HUMAN] feature on the conjuncts, 2) agreement with the[-HUMAN] feature on the conjuncts, 3) agreement with the noun class feature on both conjuncts, 4) agreement with the noun class feature on the conjunct closest to the verb, and 5) agreement with the noun class feature on the conjunct furthest from the verb. Not all of these strategies are used by all languages, nor are these strategies interchangeable in the languages which do use them – instead, multiple factors conspire to trigger the use of a specific agreement strategy within a specific agreement featural context. I show that these effects can be captured using Optimality Theory (Prince and Smolensky 2004). The analysis makes use of seven constraints: RES#, MAX[+H], MAX[-H], DEP[-H], MAXNC, DEPNC, and AGREECLOSEST. The hierarchical ranking of these constraints not only accounts for the confinement of particular strategies to specific agreement featural contexts within a language, but also accounts for the cross-linguistic differences in the use of these strategies. I end off by examining the typological implications which follow from the OT analysis provided in this thesis.
