About

Aaron Corn, PhD Melb, holds long-term collaborations with Indigenous communities in Arnhem Land on research into the application of their traditions to new intercultural contexts, and is a founding Investigator on the National Recording Project for Indigenous Performance in Australia. His recent book, Reflections and Voices, explores the cultural and political legacy of the celebrated Australian band, Yothu Yindi, and its influential lead singer, Mandawuy Yunupiŋu. Dr Corn contributes to numerous Indigenous cultural survival initiatives with Yolŋu performers from Arnhem Land, records Indigenous oral histories for the National Library of Australia, and lectures extensively on Yolŋu music, law and culture in consultation with Yolŋu elders such as Neparrŋa Gumbula. He has recently been awarded a prestigious Future Fellowship, the first in any field of the Creative Arts, by the Australian Research Council (ARC).
