  • 2016 Bettison & James Oration Greg Mackie 23 October 2016 Adelaide
    2016 Bettison & James Oration Greg Mackie 23 October 2016 Adelaide Festival of Ideas Thinking Adelaide: a Passion for Connecting and Collecting It is great to have this opportunity to share with friends, colleagues, and most importantly, an AFoI audience, a few things that have been on my mind. I would like, of course, to observe an important cultural protocol, as has been observed throughout the Adelaide Festival of Ideas, and acknowledge the Kaurna people as the traditional owners of this country. I am also proud to acknowledge the late Jim Bettison & Helen James for always backing the AFoI from its inception. Thanks to Simone Vinall and Simone's fellow Foundation Trustees: Doreen Mellor & Geoff Purdie and acknowledge Perpetual Trustees and Amanda Duthie from Adelaide Film Festival Corporation, who administers the Jim Bettison and Helen James Foundation Award. I knew Helen and Jim and valued their support for some of the causes about which we shared a passion: in essence the arts and ideas; the value of learning and of the power of human potential to both imagine and then to realise change in our lives. And so it was especially humbling for me when I was invited to be the inaugural recipient of the Award established by the Foundation that bears their name. It is also a particular thrill to know that I now find myself in the company of two amazing fellow recipients of this award: Meryl Tankard and Tim Jarvis. Each of us are incredibly different to the other in terms of our chosen paths - and I think this speaks so positively of the ambit of this new Award.
