Many of Australia’s greatest radio serials were produced during the 1940s. Among those listed in this guide are the Sunday night one-hour plays - The Lux Radio Theatre and The Macquarie Radio Theatre (becoming the Caltex Theatre after 1947); the many Jack Davey Shows, and The Bob Dyer Show; the Colgate Palmolive variety extravaganzas, headed by Calling the Stars, The Youth Show and McCackie Mansion, which starred the outrageously funny Mo (Roy Rene). Fine drama programs produced in Sydney in the 1940s included The Library of the Air and Max Afford's serial Hagen's Circus. Among the comedy programs listed from this decade are the George Wallace Shows, and Mrs 'Obbs with its hilariously garbled language.

  • Play and No Work? a 'Ludistory' of the Curatorial As Transitional Object at the Early
    All Play and No Work? A ‘Ludistory’ of the Curatorial as Transitional Object at the Early ICA Ben Cranfield Tate Papers no.22 Using the idea of play to animate fragments from the archive of the Institute of Contemporary Arts, this paper draws upon notions of ‘ludistory’ and the ‘transitional object’ to argue that play is not just the opposite of adult work, but may instead be understood as a radical act of contemporary and contingent searching. It is impossible to examine changes in culture and its meaning in the post-war period without encountering the idea of play as an ideal mode and level of experience. From the publication in English of historian Johan Huizinga’s Homo Ludens in 1949 to the appearance of writer Richard Neville’s Play Power in 1970, play was used to signify an enduring and repressed part of human life that had the power to unite and oppose, nurture and destroy in equal measure.1 Play, as related by Huizinga to freedom, non- instrumentality and irrationality, resonated with the surrealist roots of the Institute of Contemporary Arts (ICA) in London and its attendant interest in the pre-conscious and unconscious.2 Although Huizinga and Neville did not believe play to be the exclusive preserve of childhood, a concern for child development and for the role of play in childhood grew in the post-war period. As historian Roy Kozlovsky has argued, the idea of play as an intrinsic and vital part of child development and as something that could be enhanced through policy making was enshrined within the 1959 Declaration of the

Stranded takes a look at the role four musicians from suburban Brisbane played in the explosion of one of the all time greatest musical movements. Featuring interviews with the members of the band, including its leaders Ed Kuepper and Chris Bailey, as well as the likes of Sir Bob Geldof, former Dead Kennedys frontman Jello Biafra and Buzzcocks guitarist Steve Diggle, Stranded examines how the oppressive and conservative government of Joh Bjelke-Petersen in the 1970s helped act as a catalyst for the rise of punk rock in Australia, and how as a result The Saints went on to be one of the most influential bands in the country.

  • John Birt's Mactaggart Lecture 2005
    John Birt's MacTaggart Lecture 2005 When Dawn unexpectedly invited me to give this 30th Anniversary lecture my immediate instinct quite honestly was to refuse - despite her formidable back-you-up-against-the-wall-you-can't-say-no-to-me powers of persuasion. My head is somewhere else now, I thought. Anyway, when the Bishop retires he should leave the Diocese. My presence will simply inflame old hostilities. But I forced myself to take a day or two to reflect. And I changed my mind. Truth to tell, I devoted the bulk of my life to this industry. I care about it deeply and passionately. And I stand before you tonight - one of the few MacTaggart lecturers ever to be eligible for a free bus pass - because I finally realised I really did want to talk to you - the people who drive and power this great industry - about a subject that increasingly sets me alight - the looming, intensifying threat to the UK's extraordinarily successful tradition of public service broadcasting. This will be my subject tonight. The health warning is that I speak purely in a personal capacity. Homecoming Now I'm here, I must say it is good to be back. I first immersed myself in this cauldron at its very inception, when there were only three television channels. And I've been here most years since, until I retired. The Festival was the brainchild of Gus Macdonald, a former shipyard activist and visionary. He and I had been joint editors of World in Action in our 20s - he still looking like a sinewy industrial worker, me with hair heading for my shoulders.

  • The British Underground Press, 1965-1974: the London Provincial Relationship, and Representations of the Urban and the Rural
    THE BRITISH UNDERGROUND PRESS, 1965-1974: THE LONDON­ PROVINCIAL RELATIONSHIP, AND REPRESENTATIONS OF THE URBAN AND THE RURAL. Rich�d Deakin r Presented as part of the requirement forthe award of the MA Degree in Cultural, Literary, andHistorical Studies within the Postgraduate Modular Scheme at Cheltenham and Gloucester College of Higher Education June 1999 11 DECLARATIONS This.Dissertation is the product of my own work and is. not the result of anything done in collaboration. I agreethat this. Dissertationmay be available forreference and photocopying,. at the discretion of the College. Richard Deakin 111 ABSTRACT Whateverperspective one takes, contradictions in the relationship between the capital and the provinces have always been evident to some extent, and the British undergroundpress of the late 1960s and early 1970s is no exception. The introductoryfirst chapter will definethe meaning of the term 'underground' in this context, and outline some of thesources used and the methodologies employed. Chapter Two will show how the British underground press developed froman alternative coterie of writers, poets, and artists - often sympathisers of the Campaign forNuclear Disarmament movement. It will also show how having developed from roots that were arguably provincial the undergroundadopted London as its base. The third chapter will take a more detailed look at the background of some London and provincial underground publications andwill attempt to see what extent the London undergroundpress portrayed the provinces, and vice-versa. In Chapter Four actual aspects of lifein urbanand rural settings, such as communes, squats, and pop festivals,will be examined in relation to the adoption of these lifestylesby the wider counterculture and how they were adapted to particular environments as part of an envisioned alternativesociety.
