Drawing on dozens of original interviews and close analysis of
Australian examples sampled from across 40 years of “indie”
music, comedy, film, computer games, and graphic design, Fringe to
Famous explores how some of Australia’s leading cultural
practitioners negotiate their position between the margins and the
mainstream in the contemporary period. Fringe to Famous critically
re-examines the relations between “independent” and
“mainstream” cultural production at a time when the very
meaning and relevance of those terms is being widely debated. In
recent decades, critically-aware artists and their entrepreneurial
business partners have engaged in a playful negotiation of marginal
and mainstream tastes, harnessing the values associated with the
creative underground—transgression, independence,
authenticity—for both aesthetic and commercial ends. At the same
time, crises in the business models of commercial media industries
and the proliferation of online distribution have made
“mainstream” increasingly difficult to define.
