  • The Architecture of Scientific Sydney
    Journal and Proceedings of The Royal Society of New South Wales Volume 118 Parts 3 and 4 [Issued March, 1986] pp.181-193 Return to CONTENTS The Architecture of Scientific Sydney Joan Kerr [Paper given at the “Scientific Sydney” Seminar on 18 May, 1985, at History House, Macquarie St., Sydney.] A special building for pure science in Sydney certainly preceded any building for the arts – or even for religious worship – if we allow that Lieutenant William Dawes‟ observatory erected in 1788, a special building and that its purpose was pure science.[1] As might be expected, being erected in the first year of European settlement it was not a particularly impressive edifice. It was made of wood and canvas and consisted of an octagonal quadrant room with a white conical canvas revolving roof nailed to poles containing a shutter for Dawes‟ telescope. The adjacent wooden building, which served as accommodation for Dawes when he stayed there overnight to make evening observations, was used to store the rest of the instruments. It also had a shutter in the roof. A tent-observatory was a common portable building for eighteenth century scientific travellers; indeed, the English portable observatory Dawes was known to have used at Rio on the First Fleet voyage that brought him to Sydney was probably cannibalised for this primitive pioneer structure. The location of Dawes‟ observatory on the firm rock bed at the northern end of Sydney Cove was more impressive. It is now called Dawes Point after our pioneer scientist, but Dawes himself more properly called it „Point Maskelyne‟, after the Astronomer Royal.

  • Sydney Festival 2021 + Australian Design Centre
    No images? Click here Australian Made: Sydney Festival 2021 + Australian Design Centre Sydney Festival 2021 has launched its Australian Made program. In his fifth and final year as Festival Director, Wesley Enoch’s program focuses on recovering, reconnecting and reinvigorating Australia’s artists and communities after this challenging year for the creative sector. This year the festival will celebrate the best that Australia has to offer with our internationally acclaimed artists and creative companies presenting new theatre, dance, live music and much more. The people of Sydney are invited to enjoy and explore over 140 events, performances, exhibitions, talks and experiences, many of them free, during 6 – 26 January. We are delighted to announce that Australian Design Centre is part of this exciting program. We are presenting two exhibitions, multiple workshops, maker talks and a special Sydney Festival edition of our renowned Makers Market. On show from 26 November 2020 is the exhibition Isolate | Make: Creative Resilience in a Pandemic. In response to Covid-19, we invited nine makers to participate in this project. Working across a diversity of practice, these local makers share their creative process and final works made during Covid-19. During the Festival in January there will be a range of artist talks and workshops. Join paper engineer Benja Harney for a creative papermaking workshop on Wednesday 20 January 2021 and take a relaxed clay workshop with artist and ceramicist Glenn Barkley on Thursday 21 January 2021. Also launching 26 November 2020, Design Isolate explores how creative practice may have changed for makers during this year either as a result of social isolation, the associated restrictions and production challenges, or simply in response to the tragic global events.
