PERFORMANCE: Indefinite Deferral: Reflections on a Maton Alver - Performance by Steve Chinna

Armed with a Maton Alver guitar that he bought a long time ago, Steve Chinna takes you on a trip with tales, songs and images into a time of living a future deferred, when national service beckoned, the Vietnam War loomed large, Bob Dylan betrayed his fans (yet again), and pop, folk and protest music drove the rhythms of life in the dance venues and on the streets of Perth for the restless mobs of junior clerks and apprentices, living their lives in limbo, waiting for the day that the marble would to be drawn to decide their fate. Dr Steve Chinna is a UWA Senior Honorary Research Fellow and School of Humanities’ director-in-residence.
