Extreme metal scene on global context: Izmir extreme metal scene

Attempting to think about globalisation brings along serious questions. ?Does this concept point at monotyping or at stereotyping?? These two questions, although they may have seem to be pretty simple, are the basics of discussions about globalisation. Tomlinson discusses globalisation around the ?complex connectivity? concept along with explaining the increasing connections emphasis. Author describes globalisation as an empirical state of the modern world, with the help of the complex connectivity concept . With this concept , Tomlinson strives to explain that, globalisation points at a rapidly improving, condensing reciprocal connections and connectivity network, which characterizes the modern life. Nowadays, one way or another, connectivity is a common phrase, used in studies subjecting globalisation. Tomlinson gives a typical example and indicates that McGrev explains globalisation simply as ?condensation of global connectivity?, and implies that this concept points at a large amount of connections. He says ?Nowadays, goods, capital, people, knowledge, fashions, and beliefs all readily flow across territorial boundaries. Trasnnational networks, social movements and relationships are extensive in all areas of human activity from the academic to the sexual.?However this ?connectivity network?, is specific to globalisation, in other words it?s a way of reciprocal connectivity. This connectivity, mutated by the nature of relations between local and global, is a result, also affected by some components of modernity. The aim of this study is to focus on globalisation around the connectivity concept, to highlight the importance of connectivity on globalisation and to evaluate local-global dynamics of music scenes, exclusive to Extreme Metal scene and analyse the İzmir Extreme Metal Scene within terms of connectivity concept.
