Statement:
We are pleased to announce the 2nd Inter-Asia Popular Music Conference in Hong Kong in collaboration with School of Journalism and Communication in the Chinese University of Hong Kong at 22-23 June 2010. After having the first conference at Osaka in 2008, we move forward to having the next one at Hong Kong, the birthplace of one of the most popular and most globalized sounds of Asia: Cantopop.
The studies on Asian popular music are still in its embryonic stage. There is no institution devoted to popular music studies within Asian universities, neither is there is a journal which specializes on Asian popular music. What we have now is an online based, transnational research portal, Inter-Asia Popular Music Studies Group in 2007 plus a rapidly growing research network that at the moment includes 80 scholars not only in Asia but also in Europe, America and Oceania. Although the organization has just taken its first steps, there is no doubt that the academic interest in Asia popular music is rising both inside and outside Asia. There is a growing feeling that Asian popular music has not received sufficient attention from international popular music studies and that the existing paradigms of popular music studies may not be that adequate for Asian popular music. This conference will be the unique event to engage with all the scholarly debates surrounding the emerging field of of Inter-Asia popular music studies.
The 2nd conference has a main theme entitled ‘Genres of Popular Music in Asia’. The 2nd IAPMS Conference will focus on different genres of Asian popular music. The central theme is on the emerging specific Asian music genres as a consequence of globalization/inter-Asian cultural flow/hybridization between indigenous and global culture. Rather than just introducing different kinds of music genres in Asia (melody, lyrics, etc), the paper submitted should focus on how these musical genres intersect/ engage with different social, cultural and political arenas. Genres of Asian popular music can cover pop, rock, hip-hop, reggae and any other traditional musical expressions in Asia. But we welcome any paper if it seriously studies Asian popular music.

Conference theme: Globalizing Music Industry in Asia
Rationale:
We are pleased to announce the first Inter-Asia Popular Music Conference in Osaka in collaboration with Osaka City University, Urban Culture Research Center (UCRC) in July 2008.
Over the last two decades, the study of popular music has been dramatically developed in the interdisciplinary fields from musicology, sociology, literature, history, education, anthropology, to media & communications and cultural studies since the establishment of the International Association for Study of Popular Music (IASPM) in 1981. A similar trend has also been observed in the Asian continent where more and more scholars are involved in the critical studies of popular music.
Today, however, we face two major problems to be considered generally among scholars of non-Western(Asian) popular music cultures: Firstly, while it has been well established academically as an distinctive field of study in Western campuses, research efforts on popular music in the Asian contexts remains largely scattered, limited without. There are currently no institutions devoted to popular music studies within Asian universities, and the more sustained interactions of scholars in this field in the region have also been hampered by language barriers. Secondly, in spite of its more globally diffused patterns of distribution, appropriation and consumption, scholarly accounts on Asian popular music has been predominantly centered within contemporary national boundaries Such existing paradigms would have to be revised in light of the recognition of the socio-cultural fluidity arising from developments in communication technologies as well as more intensified rates of human migration.
As part of our preliminary efforts to address theses issues these problems, we launched an online based, transnational research portal, Inter-Asia Popular Music Studies Group in 2007, and have also started discussions among about 40 scholars not only in Asia but also in Europe and the United States.
In the first international conference has a main theme entitled ‘Globalizing Music Industry in Asia’, by which we would like to focus on the recent situation and historical trajectory of popular music genres in Asia like rock, pop music to hip hop and dance music which have been heavily influenced by globalization of music industry, in particular, the restructuring of global capital, the radical change of distribution network including media and internet and the transformation of fan’s practices.
Possible session themes;
Music, internet and piracy (Copyright)
Beatles in Asia
Hip hop in Asia

■日時:2008年7月26日(土)−27日(日)
■場所:大阪市立大学高原記念館 (〒558-8585 大阪市住吉区杉本3-3-138)
■主催:インターアジア・ポピュラー音楽研究グループ
大阪市立大学都市文化研究センター
■テーマ:グローバル化するアジアの音楽産業
■趣旨:
第一回インターアジア・ポピュラー音楽研究国際会議を、インターアジア・ポピュラー音楽研究グループと大阪市立大学都市文化研究センターの共催で2008年7月に開催いたします。
この二十年間のあいだにポピュラー音楽研究は、音楽学、社会学、文学、歴史学、教育学、文化人類学、メディア&コミュニケーション研究、文化研究などの領域横断的な学問として目覚しく発展してきました。1981年には国際ポピュラー音楽学会(IASPM)が設立され、国際的なネットワークが形成され、アジアにおいても、この国際的な動向を受けて多くの研究者がポピュラー音楽の研究を行っています。
けれども、現在の国際的なポピュラー音楽研究を俯瞰した際に二つの大きな課題が残されています。
ひとつは、英米圏の研究に出自を持つポピュラー音楽研究が依然として欧米圏を中心としていて、アジア地域における研究の出版がきわめて少ないことです。このことは、地政学的な問題とともに、ポピュラー音楽研究が大学アカデミズムのカリキュラムの中にまだ根付いていないことや英語という言語的障壁が大きいことが理由として挙げられるでしょう。
もうひとつは、実際のポピュラー音楽が、しばしば国境を越えた流通や生産、消費が行われているにもかかわらず、それぞれの研究が国ごとに分断されていて、包括的な比較研究がほとんど行われていないということです。
インターアジア・ポピュラー研究グループは、こうした問題意識のもと、アジア地域のポピュラー音楽研究者によって形成された国際的な研究ネットワークグループです。現在、アジア全域、アメリカ、ヨーロッパから約40人の研究者によって運営されています。
第一回の大阪会議では、「グローバル化するアジアの音楽産業」をメインテーマとして、アジアの音楽は、近年グローバリゼーション、特にグローバルな資本の再編や、インターネットをはじめとする流通の変化、ファン意識の変容に大きく影響されてきたロックやポピュラー音楽、ヒップホップやダンスミュージックなどアジアの音楽の最近の状況を考察する予定です。
■想定される個別テーマ
・ 音楽とインターネット、不正ダウンロード(著作権)
・ アジアにおけるビートルズの受容
・ アジアのヒップホップ
・ トランスナショナルな音楽消費のフロー
・ 国境を越えるポップスターとアジア的近代におけるその役割
・ クリエイティヴ産業における労働の変容
・ iPodと携帯音楽
・ 映画やテレビドラマにおけるポップミュージックの再利用
・ 世界的な実験音楽におけるアジアのミュージシャン
・ 映画やゲームなどメディアの音楽
・ アジアのディアスポラ的音楽
*そのほかのテーマも歓迎します。
