Intercultural Mobilities in Central and West Asian Contexts
As Noel B. Salazar (2018: 153) suggests, Mobility is all-pervading as a metaphor for the contemporary world, both in its physical forms and its imaginative implications. Mobility may well have beco
Waking up the Colours
This article examines three examples of twenty-first-century Iranian popular music and draws on the theories of Walter Benjamin to analyse their representations of memory and their use of elements of allegory. The three artists, azila, Salome MC and Siavash Amini, were all born in the wake of Iran's 1979 revolution, during the long, devastating Iran-Iraq War. At this time, there was a baby boom in Iran, with the result that this generation is num…
Dance, Dreams and Defiance
In the field of Asian Australian studies, questions recur around the production, reception, performance, resistance and negotiation of cultural identities. Implicit in these questions has been a concern with modes of sociability – how culturally marked groups have engaged with each other and how people have negotiated the strictures of racist histories to alter those histories’ frameworks and enable new, sociable forms of marking time and recordi…

Hope, Fear and Dance Dance Dance
In the decades preceding Iran's 1979 revolution, the country underwent rapid cultural change, implemented in part by a monarchic regime seeking to ‘modernize’ the nation. As Iran's then Shah, Mohammad Reza Pahlavi, increased his personal power in the 1960s, many Iranians resented aspects of his policy of ‘westernization’. This resentment was a significant factor in the emerging revolutionary movement. At the same time, many Iranians welcomed aspe…
Music as a Model for Postmodernist Textual Analysis
Sacred Curses’
This paper examines the texts of two young rappers who migrated to Australia from Iran and rap in their first language, Persian. The rappers call these ‘life epistles’ and use the narratives to recount traumatic memories of oppression in Iran, migration, and the experiences of teenage isolation in Australia. They shape an Iranian-Australian cultural memory drawing on not only recent experience of trauma but also traditional and allegorical Sufi p…
Diasporic Transpositions
Twentieth-century Australia was the site of a range of diasporic encounters, as well as the continuing effects of colonization and simultaneous movements towards decolonization. Extensive mid-century immigration schemes saw hundreds of thousands of (selected) Europeans migrate to Australia, including Jewish Holocaust survivors, or displaced persons as they were known then. After Israel, Australia's population now has the highest proportion of Hol…
