Taylor, Co-Chair The last decade has witnessed an increase in scholarly attention paid to experimental electronic music, especially the subgenres of sound art and noise music. Numerous books, articles, and conferences have taken up these topics as objects of study. However, only a small amount of that work has focused on the music’s relationship to affect, identification, and cultural history. There remains in some disciplines an assumption that examples of experimental electronic music are either dryly formal demonstrations of art-for-art’s-sake, or essentially resistant to legibility and meaning. The more “abstract” and “difficult” a piece appears on first ii glance, the more likely it will be seen to retreat from social and political concerns. This dissertation considers specific works of experimental electronic music through the lenses of affect theory, performance studies, sound studies, cultural studies, and other related approaches to argue for a perspective that more thoroughly accounts for the human in the electronic.

  • The Lived Experience of Blind Street Musicians in Thailand
    The lived experience of blind street musicians in Thailand Quanchai Kerddaen A thesis in fulfilment of the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy Social Policy Research Centre Arts and Social Sciences UNSW Australia May 2018 THE UNIVERSITY OF NEW SOUTH WALES Thesis/Dissertation Sheet Surname or Family name: Kerddaen First name: Quanchai Other name/s: Abbreviation for degree as given in the University calendar: PhD School: Social Policy Research Centre Faculty: Arts and Social Sciences Title: The lived experience of blind street musicians in Thailand Abstract 350 words maximum: Although many visually impaired people in Thailand have long time undertaken street music for their everyday livelihood, little is known about them. They tend to have experienced unprecedented economic and social exclusion across their lives. Through an examination of the lived experience of blind street musicians in Thailand, this thesis explores the social, cultural, economic and political influences specific to disability in contemporary Thai society that affect their lives, and indicates possible policy directions that could assist them. Applying a social constructionist and socio-economic approach, this qualitative study involves semi-structured and unstructured interviews (nineteen men and thirteen women) and three group discussions (six to ten per group) with blind street musicians, and interviews with eleven disabled activists. Most of the blind street musicians had migrated from rural regions, and shared considerable socio-economic similarities, notably living with poverty and inadequate social protection. Their life trajectories were limited by the structural constraints derived from societal negative views of disability, based on Buddhist beliefs and Thai customs. This created a cumulative impact of disablement over their life course: family neglect, poor access to education and skill training, limited employment opportunities and brittle social support networks.
