Month Year April 2009 Acknowledgments I would like to express my sincere appreciation to my dissertation supervisor, Dr. Connie Mok for her guidance, patience and valuable advice given during the whole process of completing this study. I become relaxed and confident of my dissertation after she shared her self-experience and expression to me. I am pleased with the support and encouragement of my family and friends. I would like to thank Pako, Nick, Yan, Redness, Karen, William, Mayumi, Tracy and Gary. I would also like to thank every participant of the focus groups. They provided useful and valuable information and ideas for the primary research. Abstract It is believed that films or television dramas might have an impact on tourism by encouraging tourists to visit the places or attractions which were screened (Riley and Van Doren 1992, Busby and Klug 2001). Although there has been an increasing trend of tourism research about film-induced tourism, its focus was mostly on specific sites in western countries.

This is an electronic version of a PhD thesis awarded by the University of Westminster. © Miss Guo-ting Lin, 2021. The WestminsterResearch online digital archive at the University of Westminster aims to make the research output of the University available to a wider audience. Copyright and Moral Rights remain with the authors and/or copyright owners. Music Culture and the Self-Presentation of Indigenous Musicians on Social Media in Contemporary Taiwan Guo-Ting Lin A thesis submitted in partial fulfilment of the requirements of the University of Westminster for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy April 2021 Abstract The purpose of this research was to provide an indigenous perspective of popular culture in Taiwan as a means to re-examine Taiwanese contemporary identity. In-depth qualitative interviews and digital ethnography were adopted to collect data about indigenous musicians' self-presentation on social media. Being an indigenous musician in postmodern Taiwan is a highly contested phenomenon, as social media offers a double-edged sword requiring a conjunctional analysis that delves into both the past and the contemporary. This research unpacks the performance of contemporary indigenous musicians in the post-digital media age and offers five findings. Firstly, the indigenous musicians interviewed for the purpose of this research use social media to perform their indigenous identities to wider audiences, both indigenous and non- indigenous. Secondly, identity performances of indigenous musicians on social media are inspired by and reflect the richness and diversity of Taiwanese society.
