And where do we come from? Australia’s greatest Olympian Ian Thorpe, iconic Indigenous actor Ernie Dingo, and TV presenter and Queen of Eurovision Julia Zemiro set off on an epic journey of genetic time travel to find out. DNA is the instruction manual that helps build and run our bodies. But scientific breakthroughs have discovered another remarkable use for it. DNA contains a series of genetic route maps. It means we can trace our mother’s mother’s mother and our father’s father’s father, and so on, back through tens of millennia, revealing how our ancestors migrated out of Africa and went on to populate the rest of the world.

  • INDIGENOUS Tertiary Education Conference
    INDIGENOUS Tertiary Education Conference TRINITY COLLEGE 18 - 19 NOVEMBER 2016 PROUDLY PRESENTED BY FRONT COVER Image courtesy of the Hardy family WELCOME FROM TRINITY COLLEGE On behalf of Trinity College, the University of Melbourne it is my honour to welcome you to the 2016 inaugural Indigenous Tertiary Education Conference. We acknowledge that we live and learn on the land of the Wurundjeri People of the Kulin Nations. The conference takes place in Trinity College’s new Gateway building, which is a tangible expression of Trinity’s commitment to higher education and to providing transformative experiences for young people of any nationality, ethnicity, race or creed. Trinity’s Indigenous programs have been developing since 2001 and are set in the context of the College’s commitment to reconciliation with Indigenous communities. The imperative of these programs is to implement practical steps that make a real difference to the lives of students and the communities to which they belong. The first major step taken by Trinity was to establish the Bachelor of Arts Extended pathway program, in partnership with the Faculty of Arts, Murrup Barak, and other residential colleges. Last year, the Faculty of Science formed a similar Bachelor of Science Extended pathway program. These programs are a unique and successful pathway model for Indigenous students in Australia. Trinity College, in collaboration with the University of Melbourne, has established this conference as a forum for educators, researchers, policymakers, students and the community. The conference theme will explore transitions into and within tertiary education and after graduation. I welcome our Australian and international Indigenous and non-Indigenous colleagues.

  • Rachel Perkins
    Keynote address / Rachel Perkins I thought I would talk today about a project called First Australians, which is a documentary project. We are still in the midst of it. When I talk to people about it, like taxi drivers, they ask “What do you do?” and I say I make films. They say, “What are you working on?” and I say, “I’m working on this documentary series called First Australians” and they go “Oh great, it is about the migrant community coming to Australia” and I say, “No, no! It is actually about the first Australians, Indigenous Australians. So, we are still grappling with the title and whether it is going to be too confusing for people to grasp. But the name First Australians sort of makes the point of it trying to claim the space as Australia’s first people. If anyone has any better suggestions, come up to me at the end of the session! First Australians. It is probably the most challenging project that I’ve worked on to date. It is the largest documentary series to be undertaken in Australia. It is being made by a group of Indigenous Australians under the umbrella of Blackfella Films, which is our company. It has a national perspective and it is really the history of colonisation, which is a big part of our story. It charts the period from the 1780s through to 1993. It began in 2002 when Nigel Milan, who was the then General Manager of SBS, approached me. They had shown a series on SBS called 500 Nations, which is a series on Native American people.

  • Brenda L.Croft
    Up in the sky, behind the clouds Brenda L. Croft I do what I do because I like doing it, I’m not chasing fame … Photography is just a medium for me, a way of putting across my views and images to the world. It’s no big deal.1 Big sky. Flat, open plains. Scudding clouds, as if swept across the canvas by a colossal invisible hand. The plane shudders as its landing gear drops – clunk – and, when its wing dips to the right, the black soil of Moree rises up in greeting. I was travelling there to meet with the family and friends of Michael Riley (1960– 2004), whose mother’s people were part of the Moree Kamilaroi community, and whose father’s people came from the red-soil western plains of Dubbo, Wiradjuri country, to the south, where I had travelled some weeks earlier. How do you measure a person’s life? Through their creative output? Their traces left behind, the memento mori? Through the reminiscences of others, in the spoken and written word? Through their family, their ancestors and descendants? Michael left us physically in August 2004, aged 44, suffering the after- effects of childhood poverty – the fate of too many Indigenous people in Australia, a First-World country, where the majority of the Indigenous people continue to live in Third-World conditions. By any standards Michael’s life was extraordinary and he has left behind a body of work that encompasses the complexity of contemporary Aboriginal life in myriad forms: portraiture, social-documentary and conceptual photography and film, and fine-art film.

  • VICE Studios and Screen Australia Present in Association with Film Victoria and Create NSW a Blue-Tongue Films and Pariah Production
    VICE Studios and Screen Australia present In association with Film Victoria and Create NSW A Blue-Tongue Films and Pariah Production Written and Directed by Mirrah Foulkes Starring Mia Wasikowska and Damon Herriman Produced by Michele Bennett, Nash Edgerton and Danny Gabai Run Time: 105 Minutes Press Contact Samuel Goldwyn Films [email protected] SYNOPSES Short Synopsis In the anarchic town of Seaside, nowhere near the sea, puppeteers Judy and Punch are trying to resurrect their marionette show. The show is a hit due to Judy's superior puppeteering, but Punch's driving ambition and penchant for whisky lead to an inevitable tragedy that Judy must avenge. Long Synopsis In the anarchic town of Seaside, nowhere near the sea, puppeteers Judy and Punch are trying to resurrect their marionette show. The show is a hit due to Judy's superior puppeteering, but Punch's driving ambition and penchant for whisky lead to an inevitable tragedy that Judy must avenge. In a visceral and dynamic live-action reinterpretation of the famous 16th century puppet show, writer director MIRRAH FOULKES turns the traditional story of Punch and Judy on its head and brings to life a fierce, darkly comic and epic female-driven revenge story, starring MIA WASIKOWSKA and DAMON HERRIMAN. 2 DIRECTOR’S STATEMENT JUDY AND PUNCH is a dark, absurd fable treading a line between fairy-tale, fantasy and gritty realism, all of which work together to establish a unique tone while upsetting viewer expectations. When Vice Studios’ Eddy Moretti and Danny Gabai approached me with the idea of making a live action, feminist revenge film about Punch and Judy, they encouraged me to let my imagination go wild and take the story wherever I felt it needed to go.
