    OLGA SANCHEZ: Director, Artistic Director • Think fun, this is an opportunity to perform for an audience! • Be friendly as you introduce yourself in the beginning, and say thank you at end -- you're showing the auditors a little bit of who you are (not the characters in your monologues) -- and we want to know that the person we'll be working with is pleasant! • Please don't look at the auditors in the eye during your monologues. • If you're presenting two monologues think about the two different characters you are creating, how they stand, walk, talk -- show us you know how to create characters different from yourself and distinct in themselves. • Think about intention -- What does your character want? Does it achieve its intention by the end of the monologue? Your monologue is a mini-play, consider the beginning, middle and end. • Think about who you're talking to: A stranger? A close friend? An authority figure? • Please don't use props, they're distracting. • Please select monologues that are age-appropriate (that you might be cast in, age- wise) MARCI CROWSON: Director, Artistic Director DO: • Smile and say hello when you enter the room. • Introduce yourself (first and last name). • Tell the auditors what piece(s) you'll be performing, including playwright(s). • Choose pieces that are age appropriate for you and appropriate for the company/production you're auditioning for (i.e., don't choose Shakespeare if the company produces contemporary work, choose a comedic monologue if the play you're auditioning for is a comedy. It sounds so obvious, but you'd be surprised how many people do the opposite.) • Select pieces that CONTRAST with one another, if you're doing more than one -- show off your range (vocally, physically, stylistically).

  • Anthropology of Indigenous Australia
    Anthropology of Indigenous Australia Class code ANTH-UA 9037 Instructor Details Petronella Vaarzon-Morel [email protected] 0428633216 (mobile) Office Hour: Tuesday 5-6pm Class Details Anthropology of Indigenous Australia Tuesdays, 2-5pm September 3 to December 10 Room 3.04 NYU Sydney Academic Centre Science House: 157 Gloucester Street, The Rocks Prerequisites None Class Description This course offers an introduction to some of the classical and current issues in the anthropology of Indigenous Australia. The role of anthropology in the representation and governance of Indigenous life is itself an important subject for anthropological inquiry, considering that Indigenous people of Australia have long been the objects of interest and imagination by outsiders for their cultural formulations of kinship, ritual, art, gender, and politics. These representations—in feature films about them (such as Rabbit-Proof Fence and Australia), New Age Literature (such as Mutant Message Down Under), or museum exhibitions (such as in the Museum of Sydney or the Australian Museum)—are now also in dialogue with Indigenous forms of cultural production, in genres as diverse as film, television, drama, dance, and archiving. The course will explore how Aboriginal people have struggled to reproduce themselves and their traditions on their own terms, asserting their right to forms of cultural autonomy and self-determination. Through the examination of ethnographic texts, historical accounts, films, live performances, and an autobiography, we will consider the ways in which Aboriginalities are being challenged and constructed in contemporary Australia. The course will consist of lectures interspersed with discussions, student presentations, and films/other media; we may also have guest presenters.

Twenty-six and a half per cent of the Indonesian Gross National Product was derived from the utilisation of coastal and marine resources in 2002.1 Fish and other marine resources make a significant contribution ot the supply of food, employment, and foreign exchange. More than 60% of animal protein consumed by the population is derived from the fisheries sector; and per capita consumption was estimated to be 21.7 kg per year in 2002.2 Employment in the primary fishing sector was roughly 1,805,470 people; and exports exceeded imports by just over US$ 1.6 million in 2000.3 The aim of this paper is to address problems of maritime law enforcement and compliance in Indonesia with particular reference to the management of marine and coastal resources, especially coral reefs.
