Introduction Language, land and song are closely entwined for most pre-industrial societies, whether the fishing and farming economies of Homeric Greece, or the raiding, mercenary and farming economies of the Norse, or the hunter- gatherer economies of Australia. Documenting a language is now seen as incomplete unless documenting place, story and song forms part of it. This book presents language documentation in its broadest sense in the Australian context, also giving a view of the documentation of Australian Aboriginal languages over time.1 In doing so, we celebrate the achievements of a pioneer in this field, Luise Hercus, who has documented languages, land, song and story in Australia over more than fifty years.

    THE ROAD TO TIMBUKTU LADY DOROTHY MILLS Frontispiece 55~3 1924 THE/ROAD TO TIMBUKTU/ BY IAAY DOROTHY MILLS .#T Author of" The Tent of Blue," "The Road," etc., etc. I JUN14 1985 LONDON: DUCKWORTH AND CO., 3 HENRIETTA STREET, COVENT GARDEN, W.C.2. First Published - March, 1924 Second Impression - September, 1924 (ALL RIGHTS RESERVED) Made and Printed in Great Britain by Southampton Times Limited, Southampton I DEDICATE THIS BOOK TO ALL FRIENDS, WHITE AND BLACK WHO IN VARIOUS WAYS HAVE CONTRIBUTED TO THE MAKING OF IT PREFACE FIRST of all I want to express my gratitude to all those whose very great kindness and sympathy helped, and indeed made possible, one of the most interesting trips I have ever undertaken. Their name is legion, and where so much gratitude is due it would be invidious to particularise, though their names and the memories of them are with me as I write. Secondly, a word to those who, if they read it, may blame the superficiality of this book, who asked me to tell people of the inner rather than of the outer aspects of their colony. The reason is a due sense of my own limitations. Naturally, travelling in the colonies of a race other than my own, I found much that was new and interesting to me in their problems, and in their manner of solving those problems. But though I found very much to admire and even to love, I do not feel qualified to generalise, to make comparisons, or to air my personal opinions in print.

  • A Close Look at Tinder Bots
    A Close Look at Tinder Bots Tahora H. Nazer∗ Fred Morstatter∗ Gareth Tysony Huan Liu∗ Abstract Tinder is a popular dating app that allows users to discover potential dating partners with close geographical proximity. Tinder is the first dating app in several countries and has more than 50 million users. However, many of these users are bots with malicious intent. The first step in dealing with this issue is understanding the characteristics of Tinder bots. Toward this aim, we have proposed a ground truth collection method to acquire bots to study. Our method combines honeypot methods and manual annotation. We find that probing messages is a reliable method to distinguish bots from humans as bots promote malicious URLs and direct users to phishing sites. Our observations on the collected bots show that they are more complex than bots that are studied in other social media sites. Tinder bots have profiles that are very hard to differentiate from normal users. We explore activity and profiles of these bots and report the characteristics that can be used in building a supervised learning approach for bot detection. 1 Introduction Tinder1 is one of the most popular dating applications for Android and iOS mobile phones. Tinder is recognized as the most downloaded app in 18 countries with the biggest app Figure 1: User life-cycle on Tinder. After a user joins Tinder, markets. In several countries including USA, UK, Canada, majority of the time is spent for matching and messaging. and Australia, Tinder is the most popular dating app2. Tinder has more than 50 million users [1] and they spend around 77 is no way to access user profiles unless they are shown by an minutes on it [5] every day.

Private messaging is also an option through Instagram Direct. Teens can be on lookout for “Likes” or “Comments” as a measure of “success”, self-worth and popularity. Snapchat – Lets users put time limit on photos/ videos sent before disappearing. Teens use to send embarrassing images believing they won’t go public. Persons receiving can take screen shot before image disappears and has also been hacked for recovery purposes.

  • Ken Macintyre and Barb Dobson 2017 Research Anthropologists
    Ken Macintyre and Barb Dobson 2017 Research anthropologists www.anthropologyfromtheshed.com The writings of colonial recorders have often misrepresented Aboriginal people as deriving most of their food from the hunting of large game (kangaroo, wallaby, emu) when in fact the bulk of their diet (around 80%) was based on vegetable foods and small game, for example, lizards, goannas, snakes, insect larvae, rodents and small marsupials many of which are now endangered or extinct. Grub eating was looked down upon as an aberrant, opportunistic and almost degenerate means of human survival. This practice, like other unfamiliar food traditions such as indigenous geophagy (earth-eating) that we have described in a separate paper (www.anthropologyfromtheshed.com) only reinforced the colonial idea that the Aborigines of southwestern Australia, like those in other parts of Australia, were subhuman, uncivilized and deserved to be colonized by the economically, culturally and technologically superior ‘civilized’ white people. Little did the colonial superiors realize that traditional Nyungar knowledge of environmental, botanical, biological, phenological, ecological and entomological phenomena was heavily steeped in science and mythology and that this could have become a valuable asset to the colonizers had they wished to avail themselves of this knowledge. Nyungar people used a range of environmental and astronomical indicators for predicting weather, seasonality, animal breeding patterns, movements and so on. They understood how humans, animals, plants and all of life were interconnected and this awareness was manifest in their complicated web of kinship and totemistic affiliations, rituals and mythology. Even anthropology graduates often have great difficulty comprehending the intricacies of these classificatory totemic kin relationships that bonded humans to their natural world.

Indigenous oral history brings life to our community narratives and portrays so well the customs, beliefs and values of our old people. Much of our present day knowledge system relies on what has been handed down to us generation after generation. Learning through intergenerational exchange this Indigenous oral history research thesis focuses on Indigenous methodologies and ways of being. Prime to this is a focus on understanding cultural safety and protecting Indigenous spoken knowledge through intellectual property and copyright law. From an Indigenous and Wiradjuri perspective the research follows a journey of exploration into maintaining and strengthening ethical research practices based on traditional value systems. The journey looks broadly at the landscape of oral traditions both locally and internationally, so the terms Indigenous for the global experience; Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander for the Australian experience; and Wiradjuri for my own tribal identity are all used within the research dialogue. ! !

Most particularly my wonderful Aunty Flo Grant for her guidance, her care and her generosity. I would like to thank my supervisors Professor Andrew Gunstone, Dr Sue Anderson and Dr Karen Hughes. Thank you for going on this journey of discovery and reflection with me.
