Archaeology of the Campgrounds of Muslim Cameleers in Western Australia
A few thousand Asians, Muslim and male, migrated to Australia in the nineteenth century to work in the Australian British colonies, mostly in camel transport serving remote settlements and mines in the arid interior. Many Islamic practices were retained intact in Australia. Social customs ranged from strict maintenance of purdah to adoption of the Australian business methods. Campgrounds showed accumulations of alcohol bottles, probably indicatin…
South Asian Islam in Early Australia, 1880s to 1930
In the period ca. 1880 to 1930, thousands of south Asian men migrated to Australia to work in the transport industry as cameleers in the country’s arid interior, particularly within the growing mining industry. Most of these men were Muslims, and they maintained their faith by constructing mosques where they travelled and worked throughout the country. An historical archaeological study of three mosques in Western Australia revealed considerable …
Solder scavenging from hole-and-cap food cans in the Western Australian goldfields
Site modification via large and dense can dumps dating from the gold rushes of the 1880s and later in the Western Australian goldfields may profoundly affect the archaeological interpretation of these sites. A can dump has been examined in the abandoned campground of Muslim cameleers that dated from the 1892 gold rush to after the First World War. Here, can dumps comprising hundreds of cans, stacked up and in mutual contact and without other arte…
Islamic life and death in Australia, after 1890
Beyond speculation
This paper explores the relationship between speculative design and ethics, both within and beyond the context of design pedagogic research. It examines some our struggles in, and motivations for, engaging with speculative methods in design as design scholars and practitioners, by reflecting on research which aimed to explore whether speculative, future facing design curricula would have an impact on raising design students’ awareness of design’s…
Smartphones give you wings
Built on the foundation of four years of research and implementation of mobile learning projects (m-learning), this paper provides an overview of the potential of the integration of mobile Web 2.0 tools (based around smartphones) to facilitate social constructivist pedagogies and engage students in tertiary education. Pedagogical affordances of mobile Web 2.0 tools are evaluated, and student usage and feedback is outlined via an interactive multi…
