  • African Afro-Futurism: Allegories and Speculations
    African Afro-futurism: Allegories and Speculations Gavin Steingo Introduction In his seminal text, More Brilliant Than The Sun, Kodwo Eshun remarks upon a general tension within contemporary African-American music: a tension between the “Soulful” and the “Postsoul.”1 While acknowledging that the two terms are always simultaneously at play, Eshun ultimately comes down strongly in favor of the latter. I quote him at length: Like Brussels sprouts, humanism is good for you, nourishing, nurturing, soulwarming—and from Phyllis Wheatley to R. Kelly, present-day R&B is a perpetual fight for human status, a yearning for human rights, a struggle for inclusion within the human species. Allergic to cybersonic if not to sonic technology, mainstream American media—in its drive to banish alienation, and to recover a sense of the whole human being through belief systems that talk to the “real you”—compulsively deletes any intimation of an AfroDiasporic futurism, of a “webbed network” of computerhythms, machine mythology and conceptechnics which routes, reroutes and criss- crosses the Atlantic. This digital diaspora connecting the UK to the US, the Caribbean to Europe to Africa, is in Paul Gilroy’s definition a “rhizo- morphic, fractal structure,” a “transcultural, international formation.” […] [By contrast] [t]he music of Alice Coltrane and Sun Ra, of Underground Resistance and George Russell, of Tricky and Martina, comes from the Outer Side. It alienates itself from the human; it arrives from the future. Alien Music is a synthetic recombinator, an applied art technology for amplifying the rates of becoming alien. Optimize the ratios of excentric- ity. Synthesize yourself.

  • Live Music Audiences Johannesburg (Gauteng) South Africa
    Live Music Audiences Johannesburg (Gauteng) South Africa 1 Live Music and Audience Development The role and practice of arts marketing has evolved over the last decade from being regarded as subsidiary to a vital function of any arts and cultural organisation. Many organisations have now placed the audience at the heart of their operation, becoming artistically-led, but audience-focused. Artistically-led, audience-focused organisations segment their audiences into target groups by their needs, motivations and attitudes, rather than purely their physical and demographic attributes. Finally, they adapt the audience experience and marketing approach for each target groupi. Within the arts marketing profession and wider arts and culture sector, a new Anglo-American led field has emerged, called audience development. While the definition of audience development may differ among academics, it’s essentially about: understanding your audiences through research; becoming more audience-focused (or customer-centred); and seeking new audiences through short and long-term strategies. This report investigates what importance South Africa places on arts marketing and audiences as well as their current understanding of, and appetite for, audience development. It also acts as a roadmap, signposting you to how the different aspects of the research can be used by arts and cultural organisations to understand and grow their audiences. While audience development is the central focus of this study, it has been located within the live music scene in Johannesburg and wider Gauteng. Emphasis is also placed on young audiences as they represent a large existing, and important potential, audience for the live music and wider arts sector.

However, over the last couple of years gentrification has swept through the city started by a movement of young creatives who are moving back to the centre of Johannesburg to live and work – proving that there is more to the city than meets the eye… This film is an interesting look at a city where young people from different cultural backgrounds are making it through a new wave of art, music and creativity.” – Connect / ZA “Two days that look more like a week… Joburg Party lasts just eight minutes. You would like to learn much more, because it seems really interesting what is being built there.” – Die Zeit WORD ON THE BLOGS “Check out this amazing brief documentary about the new youth underground movement in South Africa…” – AfroSuperstar “Chris Saunders and Rod Stanley made this great mini documentary on the Joburg street scene, check it out, it probably features some of your favourite South African artists.” – We Are Awesome “Cool story about the new youth movement in Johannesburg / South Africa… Super interesting, definitely check it out.” – WhuDat “Some fun reporting on the new urban underground subculture and the music it’s spawning in South Africa… Genuinely super interesting.

Sitting on the sidelines, around 60 school kids cluster in cliques, blasting rap music on a boombox, gulping fizzy drinks, unaware of who’s about to arrive. As the golden afternoon sun slices between the skyscrapers of downtown Johannesburg, there’s a nervous energy among Tthe crew. It’s our final shoot of the day – and our subject is late. “It’s too busy; she’s going to get mobbed,” protests a sharply dressed record exec, looking nervously toward the teens. And then, she arrives: Moonchild Sanelly bounces onto the court. As predicted, there’s a hum of excitement and lots of pointing as the kids snap away on smartphones. Dressed in a paint- box of bright primary colours and her cobalt- blue “moon-mop” plaits, the Port Elizabeth-born, future ghetto-funk star hides behind yellow-tinged sunglasses.

  • Tedxsoweto Programme 2011 Lr.Pdf
    This book belongs to TEDxSoweto delegate (If found please return to owner) Greetings, from Kelo Kubu and the TEDxSoweto team. In the spirit of ideas worth spreading, TED has created a program called TEDx – local, self-organized events that bring people together to share a TED-like experience. Since 2009, over 2000 TEDx events have happened, in over 100 cities, in 100 countries, touching millions of people. TEDxSoweto’s mission is to find local ideas worth spreading. We look for remarkable people doing amazing things, put them on the TEDxSoweto stage, film their talks and amplify them online. Their innovations, stories, teachings, experiences and insights enrich our lives and inspire a better future. The first TEDxSoweto was held on 27 April 2010, at the Apartheid Museum in Johannesburg. This year, TEDxSoweto has come to the heart of Soweto – at the MIAGI Centre for Music. The programme line-up is a combination of selected TEDTalks and the perspectives of more than a dozen remarkable local and international live speakers. The theme is a challenging one – “The Future is Inevitable”. Our speakers will reveal possibilities about what’s coming. From that, we hope to gain insight into the anticipated twists and turns of this thrilling but sometimes terrifying human adventure.

  • GLM Study Trip 2017
    JOHANNESBURG GLM Study Trip 2017 EDITORIAL NOTE It is the tale not of two cities, but one, with fragmented realities under the bright sun. City of Gold, City of Apartheid or City of Africa, Johannesburg has many names. The city’s constant evolution renewed by time and struggle has opened our eyes to the weight of imagining and crafting the city. Imagine. The top floor of the tallest building in Africa. A view that reveals the tentacular expansion of the city in its sur- roundings, simultaneously reminding us of previous temporalities, almost as a visualisation of history. To the South-West, we could see remnants of the gold mines, the economy on which the city was built in the 19th century.
