This lecture focuses on the relationships between geography, postcolonialism and culture. It outlines the ways that these three concerns have been centrally placed within a body of scholarship that has ranged from analysing the spatial politics of Sri Lankan diaspora formations as well as diasporic imaginative literature, the environmental aesthetics of South Asian tropical and modernist architecture, and most lately the recent history of British Asian dance music. 

In so doing, the lecture evokes the importance of thinking through colonial and postcolonial lives, their routed spatialities and worldly orientations, as one way for geography and geographers to engage with the legacies of imperialism in everyday life.

I shall see you there.
