This conference is a part of a series of events hosted by the Island 
Southeast Asia Centre along the theme of /Intersections of Area, Media 
and Cultural Studies/ which aim to critically question the established 
understanding of, and the relationship between, these three studies, 
with Southeast Asian region as the object of investigation.  This 
semester’s conference, on “Creative Industries, Youth Culture and 
Identity Politics in Southeast Asia" is a seminal attempt to explore 
issues and debate on cultural production in the context of cultural 
industries and identity politics both within and outside the region. The 
event brings together a range of speakers from various fields, including 
film-making, art, education, Islamic studies, and creative industries.It 
is hoped that this exciting program will shed light on some important 
aspects of cultural production in the region, including links between 
creative industries and identity politics, Islamic creative/cultural 
industries, production and consumption of Islamic commodities, and 
processes of cultural fusion and mediation in contemporary Southeast 
Asia and beyond.
