    STORYTELLING AND NEW MEDIA TECHNOLOGIES: INVESTIGATING THE POTENTIAL OF THE ABC’S HEYWIRE FOR REGIONAL YOUTH Sasha Mackay Bachelor of Fine Arts (Hons), Creative Writing Production Submitted in fulfilment of the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy Creative Industries Faculty Queensland University of Technology 2015 Keywords Australian Broadcasting Corporation Heywire new media narrative identity public service media regional Australia storytelling voice youth Storytelling and new media technologies: investigating the potential of the ABC’s Heywire for regional youth i Abstract This thesis takes a case study approach to examine the complexity of audience participation within the Australian public service media institution, the Australian Broadcasting Corporation (ABC). New media technologies have both enabled and necessitated an increased focus on user created content and audience participation within the context of public service media (PSM) worldwide and such practices are now embedded within the remit of these institutions. Projects that engage audiences as content creators and as participants in the creation of their own stories are now prevalent within PSM; however, these projects represent spaces of struggle: a variety of institutional and personal agendas intersect in ways that can be fruitful though at other times produce profound challenges. This thesis contributes to the wider conversation on audience participation in the PSM context by examining the tensions that emerge at this intersection of agendas, and the challenges and potentials these produce for the institution as well as the individuals whose participation it invites. The case study for this research – Heywire – represents one of the first instances of content-related participation within the ABC.
  • Neutron Stars

    Neutron Stars

    Chandra X-Ray Observatory X-Ray Astronomy Field Guide Neutron Stars Ordinary matter, or the stuff we and everything around us is made of, consists largely of empty space. Even a rock is mostly empty space. This is because matter is made of atoms. An atom is a cloud of electrons orbiting around a nucleus composed of protons and neutrons. The nucleus contains more than 99.9 percent of the mass of an atom, yet it has a diameter of only 1/100,000 that of the electron cloud. The electrons themselves take up little space, but the pattern of their orbit defines the size of the atom, which is therefore 99.9999999999999% Chandra Image of Vela Pulsar open space! (NASA/PSU/G.Pavlov et al. What we perceive as painfully solid when we bump against a rock is really a hurly-burly of electrons moving through empty space so fast that we can't see—or feel—the emptiness. What would matter look like if it weren't empty, if we could crush the electron cloud down to the size of the nucleus? Suppose we could generate a force strong enough to crush all the emptiness out of a rock roughly the size of a football stadium. The rock would be squeezed down to the size of a grain of sand and would still weigh 4 million tons! Such extreme forces occur in nature when the central part of a massive star collapses to form a neutron star. The atoms are crushed completely, and the electrons are jammed inside the protons to form a star composed almost entirely of neutrons.

  • Wrist Fracture – Advice Following Removal of Your Cast

    Wrist Fracture – Advice Following Removal of Your Cast

    Wrist Fracture – advice following removal of your cast A plaster cast usually prevents a fracture from moving, but allows your fingers to move. The cast also reduces pain. What to expect It usually takes four to six weeks for new bone to form to heal your fracture. When the cast is removed most people find that their wrist is stiff, weak and uncomfortable to start with. It may also be prone to swelling and the skin dry or flaky, this is quite normal. It is normal to get some pain after your fracture. If you need painkillers you should take them as prescribed as this will allow you to do your exercises and use your wrist for light activities. You can ask a Pharmacist about over the counter painkillers. If your pain is severe, continuous or excessive you should contact your GP. The new bone gradually matures and becomes stronger over the next few months. It is likely to be tender and may hurt if you bang it. The muscles will be weak initially, but they should gradually build up as you start to use your hand and wrist. When can I start to use my hand and wrist? It is important to try and use your hand and wrist as normally as possible. Start with light activities like fastening buttons, washing your face, eating, turning the pages of books over etc. Build up as pain allows. Avoid lifting a kettle for 4 weeks If I have been given a Wrist splint You may have been given a wrist splint to wear.

  • Wrist Fracture

    Wrist Fracture

    Hand Conditions: WRIST FRACTURE A wrist fracture is a break in one or more of the bones in the wrist. The wrist is made up of the two bones in the forearm called the radius and the ulna. It also includes eight carpal bones. The carpal bones lie between the end of the forearm bones and the bases of the fi ngers. The most commonly fractured carpal bone is called the scaphoid or navicular bone. This fact sheet will focus on fractures of the carpal bones of the wrist. Causes A wrist fracture is caused by trauma to the bones in the wrist. Trauma may be caused by: • Falling on an outstretched arm • Direct blow to the wrist • Severe twist of the wrist Risk Factors Factors that increase your chance of developing a wrist fracture include: • Participating in contact sports, such as football or soccer • Participating in activities such as in-line skating, skateboarding, or bike riding • Participating in any activity which could cause you to fall on your outstretched hand • Violence or high-velocity trauma, such as an automobile accident Symptoms If you have any of these symptoms, do not assume they are due to a wrist fracture. Symptoms of a wrist fracture include. • Pain • Swelling and tenderness around the wrist • Bruising around the wrist • Limited range of wrist or thumb motion • Visible deformity in the wrist For more information visit us online at www.ptandme.com Hand Conditions: WRIST FRACTURE Diagnosis Your doctor will ask about your symptoms, physical activity, and how the injury occurred. The injured area will be examined.

    TEK 8.5C: Periodic Table

    Name: Teacher: Pd. Date: TEK 8.5C: Periodic Table TEK 8.5C: Interpret the arrangement of the Periodic Table, including groups and periods, to explain how properties are used to classify elements. Elements and the Periodic Table An element is a substance that cannot be separated into simpler substances by physical or chemical means. An element is already in its simplest form. The smallest piece of an element that still has the properties of that element is called an atom. An element is a pure substance, containing only one kind of atom. The Periodic Table of Elements is a list of all the elements that have been discovered and named, with each element listed in its own element square. Elements are represented on the Periodic Table by a one or two letter symbol, and its name, atomic number and atomic mass. The Periodic Table & Atomic Structure The elements are listed on the Periodic Table in atomic number order, starting at the upper left corner and then moving from the left to right and top to bottom, just as the words of a paragraph are read. The element’s atomic number is based on the number of protons in each atom of that element. In electrically neutral atoms, the atomic number also represents the number of electrons in each atom of that element. For example, the atomic number for neon (Ne) is 10, which means that each atom of neon has 10 protons and 10 electrons. Magnesium (Mg) has an atomic number of 12, which means it has 12 protons and 12 electrons.

    1.1. Introduction the Phenomenon of Positron Annihilation Spectroscopy

    PRINCIPLES OF POSITRON ANNIHILATION Chapter-1 __________________________________________________________________________________________ 1.1. Introduction The phenomenon of positron annihilation spectroscopy (PAS) has been utilized as nuclear method to probe a variety of material properties as well as to research problems in solid state physics. The field of solid state investigation with positrons started in the early fifties, when it was recognized that information could be obtained about the properties of solids by studying the annihilation of a positron and an electron as given by Dumond et al. [1] and Bendetti and Roichings [2]. In particular, the discovery of the interaction of positrons with defects in crystal solids by Mckenize et al. [3] has given a strong impetus to a further elaboration of the PAS. Currently, PAS is amongst the best nuclear methods, and its most recent developments are documented in the proceedings of the latest positron annihilation conferences [4-8]. PAS is successfully applied for the investigation of electron characteristics and defect structures present in materials, magnetic structures of solids, plastic deformation at low and high temperature, and phase transformations in alloys, semiconductors, polymers, porous material, etc. Its applications extend from advanced problems of solid state physics and materials science to industrial use. It is also widely used in chemistry, biology, and medicine (e.g. locating tumors). As the process of measurement does not mostly influence the properties of the investigated sample, PAS is a non-destructive testing approach that allows the subsequent study of a sample by other methods. As experimental equipment for many applications, PAS is commercially produced and is relatively cheap, thus, increasingly more research laboratories are using PAS for basic research, diagnostics of machine parts working in hard conditions, and for characterization of high-tech materials.
