Prerequisites

What you need to understand first.

  • Frequency L5 (requires)
    A band in physics is a range of frequencies or energies, but the concept of a band as a social unit is not relevant here.
  • People L8 (requires)
    A band is a social unit characterized by a relatively small, cohesive group of people sharing a common identity, often marked by temporal continuity and shared cultural practices.
  • Share L14 (requires)
