The eyes and ears of the railway”
Frontline workers who occupy public-facing, non-managerial roles are critical to the ongoing sociotechnical accomplishment of safety in complex systems, yet their role is often overlooked in relation to organizational safety programs, protocols, and training. In this paper, we examine how frontline workers make judgments about potential hazards during routine work and how they respond to organizational directives that contravene their expertise. …
To sing with another's voice
In northern Australia, elaborate forms of indirection and self-effacement shape the media play of young Indigenous Australians. Young people animate celebrity avatars and their iconic voices as kinds of camouflage, breathing life into the artifacts of social media across a range of online platforms and media networks. In turn, they are themselves addressed, affected, and animated by such media. Informed by widely distributed norms of communicativ…
A Subject Deferred
From as early as the late 1970s anthropologists and ethnomusicologists have been both analysts of and advocates for institutional worlds of Aboriginal art and media. Keenly aware of the Faustian character ascribed to the Indigenous embrace of media, and attuned to the ironies of its governmental subvention, such work of necessity took shape in dialogue with specific institutional possibilities and Australian anxieties. This paper revisits the his…
The Anthropology of Radio Fields
This review surveys a resurgent ethnographic interest in radio media in order to identify the contours and potentials of an emergent anthropology of radio. We first locate such scholarship in relation to long-standing questions about the nature and power of technological mediation, as well as voice, sound, and aurality. This allows us to reveal how conceptualizations of a singular ontology of radio often implicitly underwrite most accounts of its…
Preface
Becoming the S tate in N orthern A ustralia
In A ustralia's N orthern T erritory, the L arrakia have been involved in a decades‐long effort to gain recognition as traditional owners through L and R ights and N ative T itle legislation. From one perspective, their claims have failed to achieve the entitlement and recognition grounded in these governmental regimes (Scambary 2007; Povinelli 2002). However, over the past decade the L arrakia N ation A boriginal C orporation ( LNAC ) and the L …
Running amok or just sleeping rough? Long-grass camping and the politics of care in northern Australia
In this article, I analyze efforts to remove Aboriginal people from town camps and public parks in Darwin, capital of Australia's Northern Territory. In early 2003, the territory government enjoined the corporate representative of Darwin's traditional owners to assert their prior title, thereby policing and reimagining public space by reference to this Aboriginal corporate custody. Public discourse, as reflected in news accounts, framed this move…
On gammon, global noise and indigenous heterogeneity
Gammon', a term derived from English and which can be glossed in Aboriginal Australia as meaning fake, cheap or broken, is shared across varieties of Aboriginal English and has become affectionately revered as icon of an intra-Aboriginal public culture. The shorter Oxford English Dictionary defines gammon as the distraction proffered as one's pockets are picked and, more generally, as humbug or nonsense - glosses which capture the playful dissimu…
Mediating Kinship
In Aboriginal Northern Australia, request programs are a ubiquitous, marked format for Indigenous radio broadcasting. Emerging from the activist drive of Indigenous media producers, and often instrumentally geared toward connecting prison inmates with their families and communities, such request programs invariably involve performative "shout-outs" to close and extended kin. These programs bring together a lengthy history of Aboriginal incarcerat…

People Are More Important Than Pills In Recovery From Mental Disorder
Long-term research has shown that many people diagnosed with schizophrenia fully recover. Helping relationships, including psychotherapy, play a much more important role than medications in recovery. This vital information, which could bring hope to countless millions, is routinely suppressed by the pharmaceutical industry. The industry's control of psychiatric research, publications, and training has insured the dominance of the unfounded assert…
