  • Sonic Modernities of Our Present By
    Remixing Relationality: ‘Other/ed’ Sonic Modernities of our Present by Mark V. Campbell A thesis submitted in conformity with the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy Sociology and Equity Studies Ontario Institute for Studies in Education University of Toronto © Copyright by Mark V. Campbell 2010 Remixing Relationality: ‘Other/ed’ Sonic Modernities of our Present Doctor of Philosophy 2010 Mark V. Campbell Sociology and Equity Studies University of Toronto Abstract Far from simply playing music, the turntable has, in recent decades, been transformed into a musical instrument. Those that play these new instruments, called Turntablists, alter existing sounds to produce new sonic arrangements, exceeding the assumed use value of the turntable. The turntable’s transformation from record player to instrument captures one of the ways in which Afrosonic sound making activities refuse to conform to existing paradigms of music making in the western world. Throughout the African diaspora, it has been the musics from various regions and nations that continually capture the attention of the world’s music connoisseurs. This dissertation examines the ways in which careful consideration of the sonic innovations in Afrodiasporic cultures produce alternative paradigms through which we might analyze contemporary life. The following chapters interrogate turntablism, remix culture and hip hop music as subtexts that elaborate a foundational narrative of Afrodiasporic life. These subtexts are used as tools to examine the various ethnoscapes of Black Canadian life, official multiculturalism and notions of home within the African diaspora in Canada. The dominant narrative of the African diaspora explored in this work, housed within the sonic, elaborates a relational conception of freedom and modernity born out of the ii particularities of Afrodiasporic life in the west.

Many companies and organizations have made investigations and reports to enable them to reach this full potential. The purpose of the present research was to study the level of consumer awareness towards corporate responsibility through the role of media channels. The objective was to study the scope of corporate responsibility from the consumer perspective and provide an association between theories and practical solutions. A further aim was to explain historical roots and the development of the concept, as well as the ideologies behind it and study customers’ awareness about the phenomenon; one important factor being the media. The theoretical framework is constructed on a literature review consisting of various books, academic and non-academic articles, and online publications. A qualitative interview with 20 participants was used to elicit the consumer viewpoint. Coca-Cola Company’s sustainability and GRI reports and strategies for the 2011-2013 financial years were analysed. The results indicate that the functional utilization of corporate responsibility requires concrete actions rather than a polished veneer.
