    Heritage Newsletter of the Blue Mountains Association of Cultural Heritage Organisations Inc March-April 2016 ISSUE 43 ISSN 2203-4366 Photographers – through their eyes There is a particular group of people to whom we, as people/organisations interested in our history, owe a huge dept. That is - the photographer. Be it the official or professional or private photographer, they provide us with pictures of both ourselves and our nation, at specific points in time. Their work is a historical record, showing the meaning and intensity of life at the time, and the current social dynamics that accompany them. The Macquarie Dictionary (1995) defines a photographer as a person who carries out “the art of producing images of objects on sensitized surfaces by the chemical action of light or of other forms of radiant energy, as x-rays, gamma rays, cosmic rays etc”. Obviously today in a more modern definition, this would be expanded to include digital experiences. However, for the recording of historical subjects, this former definition would ring true. Many photographers in the 19th and 20th centuries sought to celebrate the communities of people who work to lay the foundations of the country, to record specific events, covering both individual stories, and town and rural life. Incline, Kembla Coal, King Katoomba clouds, Phillips Chinese wool wasking, Kerry When we look at a photo, what are we looking at? Many photos bring us back again and again, and we see something different every time. The photographer may have sought to depict a particular event, person, but inadvertently has recorded a variety of other material, such as fashions and tools, landscapes and buildings, cultures and social customs, techniques and trades.

    ——; — ! 92 STEVENSONIANA VIII ISLAND DAYS TO TUSITALA IN VAILIMA^ Clearest voice in Britain's chorus, Tusitala Years ago, years four-and-twenty. Grey the cloudland drifted o'er us, When these ears first heard you talking, When these eyes first saw you smiling. Years of famine, years of plenty, Years of beckoning and beguiling. Years of yielding, shifting, baulking, ' When the good ship Clansman ' bore us Round the spits of Tobermory, Glens of Voulin like a vision. Crags of Knoidart, huge and hoary, We had laughed in light derision. Had they told us, told the daring Tusitala, What the years' pale hands were bearing, Years in stately dim division. II Now the skies are pure above you, Tusitala; Feather'd trees bow down to love you 1 This poem, addressed to Robert Louis Stevenson, reached him at Vailima three days before his death. It was the last piece of verse read by Stevenson, and it is the subject of the last letter he wrote on the last day of his life. The poem was read by Mr. Lloyd Osbourne at the funeral. It is here printed, by kind permission of the author, from Mr. Edmund Gosse's ' In Russet and Silver,' 1894, of which it was the dedication. After the Photo by] [./.

(There are two reasons why we do our art: the first is to maintain our culture, the second is to earn money). Injalak Arts and Crafts Corporate Plan INTRODUCTION In the last chapter, the example of bark paintings was used to test Western categories for indigenous art. Reference was also made to Aboriginal systems of classification, in particular the ways Yolngu people classify painting, including bark painting. Morphy's concept, that Aboriginal art exists in two 'frames', was briefly introduced, and his view was cited that Yolngu artists increasingly operate within both 'frames', the Aboriginal frame and the European frame (Morphy 1991:26). This chapter develops the theme of how indigenous art objects are valued, both within the creator society and when they enter the Western art-culture system. When aesthetic objects move between cultures the values attached to them may change.

  • Salamaua Falls
    Cambridge University Press 978-0-521-89681-8 - The Battle for Wau: New Guinea’s Frontline 1942-1943 Phillip Bradley Excerpt More information CHAPTER 1 Salamaua Falls The town of Wau, at the head of the Bulolo Valley in what is now Papua New Guinea, had its foundation in gold. It was in the early 1920s that the first gold was found in the Bulolo Valley, with the first miner’s right issued in December 1923. As the goldfields developed, the coastal town of Salamaua became their key supply port. Salamaua lies some 50 kilometres to the northeast of Wau and almost 40 kilometres directly south of Lae across the Huon Gulf. The old town is on the isthmus of a peninsula that juts out into the Solomon Sea like an accusing finger, pointed to the northeast. On 21 October 1925 the first cargo boat, the MV Marsina, called at its port. As the news spread, more people came to Salamaua to head up into the mountains for the promise of riches at Wau. Both towns grew, though that growth would always be limited by the strenuous eight-day trek from the coast up to Wau. An air route was sorely needed. In 1927 a former Australian officer from the First World War, Cecil Levien, brought 250 native labourers to Lae and constructed a landing ground there. Ray Parer, who had been narrowly beaten by Sir Ross and Keith Smith as the first to fly from England to Australia, flew the first aeroplane, a De Havilland DH-4, from Rabaul to Lae.

  • The Journ Al of the Polynesian Society
    THE JOURNAL OF THE POLYNESIAN SOCIETY VOLUME 126 No.3 SEPTEMBER 2017 INSTRUMENTS IN MOTION: FLUTES, HARMONICAS AND THE INTERPLAY OF SOUND AND SILENCE IN COLONIAL MICRONESIA BRIAN DIETTRICH Victoria University of Wellington The few native musical instruments are now obsolete or nearly so and are replaced by the guitar, harmonica, and ukulele (Fischer and Fischer 1957: 203) Music enters the history of empire as silence (Bohlman 2016: 174) While I was residing in the islands of Chuuk in the Federated States of Micronesia, friends told me a story about a musical instrument no longer seen or heard in the islands but not completely without a presence. I first listened to this tale in 2001 and again in subsequent years. In accounts of the story—said to date from the German colonial administration (1899–1914)—the identity of the instrument was not always clear, but most believed it to be the aangún, a nose flute made of bamboo or mangrove root but not regularly constructed or played since the mid-20th century. The word aangún can be translated as ‘soft-sounder’, a term that designates its delicate tone, but the name also calls to mind its quiet place in histories of Chuuk. The story about the instrument relates how a group of men from one village planned to ambush those from another as part of traditional warfare practices. Although the warring party disguised their plans, one knowledgeable man who knew how to play the instrument sounded a coded warning to his village after he learned about the intentions of the visitors.
