The issue also includes articles from Perth and Sydney, and the historical perspective runs from the 12th century to the present day. As the year 2009 is ending, the project ‘Childhood, Tradition and Change’ is entering its fourth, and final, year. This national study of the historical and contemporary practices and signifi- cance of Australian children’s playlore has been funded by the Australian Research Council together with Melbourne, Deakin and Curtin Universities and the National Library of Australia and Museum Victoria. In 2010 the research team will be carrying out its final fieldwork in primary school playgrounds, beginning the analysis of the rich body of data already obtained, and preparing the book which is the project’s final outcome. We are pleased to include Graham Seal’s review of the analytic essays of Alan Dundes, as edited by Simon Bronner. Both the book itself and Seal’s review pay tribute to the seminal work of one of the world’s most distinguished folklorists.

    Issue No. 7 (September 2003) — New Media Technologies The Technology, Aesthetic and Cultural Politics of a Collaborative, Transnational Music Recording Project: Veiga, Veiga and the Itinerant Overdubs By Denis Crowdy and Karl Neuenfeldt New media innovations and the popularity of ‘world music’ have facilitated crosscultural and transnational recording projects in the past few decades. New media technology makes collaboration at a distance feasible and a market for the very eclectic genre(s) of ‘world music’ makes projects potentially economically viable. Beginning approximately in the mid- 1980s with the popularity, and contentiousness, of Paul Simon’s Graceland project (Meintjes 1990) and other ‘world music’ projects such as Deep Forest (Feld 2000), academic researchers have explored the nature, legality and cultural dynamics of such recordings (e.g. Mills 1996; Zemp 1996). An ancillary to such research has been research into the multifaceted roles of academics in such kinds of cultural production. Cultural production here includes the overlapping components of most contemporary cultural products, including their ‘circuit of culture’ (production, regulation, identity, representation and consumption) (Du Gay 1997). Such research provides insights into the processes and end products of cultural production of a particular ‘art world’ of shared aesthetics (Becker 1982), in this case popular music. Examples of such academic involvement include: production and participation in educational dance performances (Mackinlay 2001), soundscape and acoustic ecology recordings (Feld 1991, 2001; Feld and Crowdy 2002), and commercial or community-orientated music CDs (Scales 2002, Neuenfeldt 2001). This article describes and analyses the aesthetic, technological and cultural processes informing the cultural production of Veiga, Veiga, a song recorded by 73-year-old Australian Torres Strait Islander Henry (Seaman) Dan.

    v FOREWORD y oldest memories of Seaman Dan hark back to the early 1950s — I was five Mor six years old. At the time, I was playing in the front yard of our house in John Street, TI when I heard a stranger speaking to me. ‘Hiya, Guy! Your Mum and Dad home?’ he asked in his quiet silken-toned drawl. He had a brown paper bag with a few large bottles of beer in one arm and was balancing a guitar on the gatepost with the other. How did I know it was beer? Come on … this was TI, aka ‘Thirsty Island’ back then! The guitar I recognised from pictures on the covers of vinyl records I’d seen at Uncle Porgie’s place next door. The ensuing party that day was one of many such spontaneous events at our place as well as other friends’ and relatives’ houses — gatherings that were pretty common in our little cultural melting pot of a community whenever certain luggers were in port. They would doubtlessly have happened before this particular time, and I clearly recall them as being joyous, happy and exciting times for the grownups and kids alike. Sometimes these visitors were straight off the boat and smelled strongly of the ocean and the gifts of salted pearl shell meat they brought ashore — a delicacy when cooking ‘Long Soup’. At other times, they were all spruced up and ready to relax with some serious all-night partying. I only ever remember Mr Dan as always looking very cool and dapper. Over the ensuing couple of decades, the four remaining pubs on TI slowly became more of a focal point for entertainment from the old house parties.
