About Joshua Han

Joshua Han is a researcher in Musicology. He has undertaken cross-disciplinary research across a range of fields and areas including linguistics, social semiotics, multimodality, critical discourse analysis, musicology and social media. He was awarded his PhD in music semiotics from the University of New South Wales in 2022. He has teaching experience in visual communication and social media studies, and has also worked extensively as a researcher in discourse analysis. 

Joshua’s current research project is entitled “Decolonising Music Theory” and is funded by Wenner-Gren Foundations. The aim of this project is to critically examine and work towards challenging the hegemonic position that western classical music theory holds in the field of music theory. Further, it investigates alternative music theoretical perspectives from diverse musical practices. Methods from critical discourse analysis and multimodal social semiotics are applied and applications of the research findings to music education are also investigated.
