When we face displacement, how do we overcome such experiences and make new social relationships? This symposium aims to illuminate such a question by examining music and art of the diaspora communities, the Jews and the Roma, as the media of creating the past, the present, and the future, namely, “art for survival”. The Jews and the Roma are known as artistically talented people. We explore the sustainability of those diaspora community, focusing on how their arts have allowed the people to create or deviate from the collective memory and narratives, which tend to converge toward linear sense of time and a single origin of the community. In this symposium, those two diaspora cases in different regions are compared further with the cases of the atomic bomb survivors in Hiroshima, who have gone through displacement and fragmentation of memory, in order to clarify the relationship between the practice of remembering and the demarcation of communities.Date：28th March 2023Place：Room 1102, Faculty of Integrated Human Studies, Kyoto University（京都大学吉田南キャンパス総合人間学部棟1102教室）◎第1部の一部と第3部に日・英同時通訳がつきますAcknowledgment: SPS KAKENHI Grant Number 18H00783Cultural Anthropological Research on the Medium of Diaspora Memory and Remembering【Time table】10:00-10:10 Opening Remark: Ayako Iwatani (Kyoto University)<1 - Sound of Diaspora Community>10:10-10:40 Ayako Iwatani (Kyoto University)"Singing beyond the Present: Manele or Sharing the Transient Present among the Romanian Roma"10:40-11:10 Sachiko Takiguchi (Josai International University) "Making Music from Fragmented and Assembled Pieces of Memory: the Case of Lovara Roma in Austria"11:10-11:40 Haruyuki Kuroda (Matsuyama University) "Under the Musical Umbrellas: Diasporic Scenes of Klezmer Music"11:40-11:55 Comment: Joshua D.Pilzer（University of Toronto）11:55-12:10 Discussion12:10-13:10 Lunch Break<2 - Art for Survival>13:10-13:40 Ryoko Sachi（Toyo University） "Art That Matters: The Roma Contemporary Art Movement and Diasporic Memories"13:40-14:20 Valérie Leray(France) "Place with No Name: Visible and Invisible History of the Gypsy Internment in France"14:20-14:50 Aya Udagawa (Tokyo University of Science) "How does Art Make the Past?: Kibbutz Yad Mordechai and Holocaust Monuments in Israel"14:50-15:05 Comment: Taro Tsurumi (Tokyo University)15:05-15:20 Discussion15:20-15:30 Break <3 - Anchoring Diaspora> 15:30-16:10 Gil Yefman(Israel) "History, Memory and Imagination: Kibbutz Buchenwald and its Unfolding Texture"16:10-16:50 Harri Stojka(Austria） "The Conflicts and Compromise between a Jazz Guitarist and a Rom"16:50-17:20 Takuma Higashi (Hiroshima, Japan) "Syncopation and History : Thinking Through ‘hiroshimas’"17:20-17:35 Comment: Kotaro Takagi (Aoyama Gakuin University)17:35-18:45 Roundup Discussion
