Serie:
Anthropology, creative practice and ethnography
Inhalt:
This is a personal history written at the intersection of colonial anthropology, creative practice and migrant ethnography. Renowned postcolonial scholar, public artist and radio maker, UK-born Paul Carter documents and discusses a prodigiously varied and original trajectory of writing, sound installation and public space dramaturgy produced in Australia to present the phenomenon of contemporary migration in an entirely new light. Rejecting linear conceptualisations of migrant space-time, Carter describes a distinctively migrant psychic topology: turbulent, vortical and opportunistic. He shows that the experience of self-becoming, when mediated through a creative practice that places the enigma of communication at the heart of its praxis, produces a coherent critique of colonial regimes still dominant in discourses of belonging.
