This article is a preliminary attempt to locate the practice of non-formal arts education in Malaysia since the 1970s, tracing and intersecting its growth across a broad panorama of cultural, social, and political change highlighted in the AEAM Meta-Timeline. My reading considers how the trajectories of this field may have responded to overlapping currents in civil society and pedagogy, as well as parallel movements in regional cultural practice.

Baling is a documentary performance that reconstructs these historic negotiations between Tunku Abdul Rahman, David Marshall and Chin Peng, where various visions on building a new nation were imagined, discussed and discarded. Reading from publicly available transcripts, the performer-researchers relook at the meanings of freedom, loyalty, terrorism, reconciliation, surrender, sacrifice and independence, and consider how the phantoms of our history continue to haunt our present.
