Experiencing Eras, Worldbuilding, and the Prismatic Liveness of Taylor Swift and The Eras Tour
“You look like Taylor Swift / in this light, we’re loving it” sings Swift on the track “Clara Bow” off her The Tortured Poets Department album (2024). When I first heard this line of lyrics, the various star personas—or should I say “eras”—of Taylor Swift flashed through my head. So too did the countless iterations of The Eras Tour. Even though I may never attend The Eras Tour in person, I have attended countless versions of The Eras Tour by othe…
Victoria’s Treaty Bill and the evolution of lawmaking in a Westminster democracy
Victoria’s Statewide Treaty Bill (2025) is the first statewide treaty with Indigenous peoples in Australia. This article examines the institutional architecture to be brought about by the Bill, its key implications for lawmaking and public policy, and its significance as a model of good government. It argues that the Statewide Treaty framework enhances democratic legitimacy in Victoria, rectifying the absence of Indigenous contribution to laws an…

Sensing, Sharing, and Listening to Musicking Animals across the Sonic Environments of Social Media
This article explores the strategies employed by user-creators as they listen to, sense, make, and share digital audiovisual memes of musicking non-human animals on social media. Memes, reels, and other forms of audiovisual social media posts are a form of cultural expression that reveals the varied ways humans relate to, connect with, and represent non-human animals – especially their pets – through sound, music, and the moving image. By listeni…
The sonic strategies and technologies of listening alone together in The World According to Sound’s Outside In
This article examines three dimensions of Chris Hoff and Sam Harnett’s practices for producing, sharing and listening to audio in collective and social ways for The World According to Sound’ s Outside In : the sonic strategies and soundscape design used to engage communal and collective listening, how Outside In adapts and transforms traditional paradigms using the broadcast medium of the podcast to aesthetically engage with liveness and the corp…
"Unmute" Bread
While many of our colleagues are avidly baking and feeding their newly acquired sourdough starters while sheltering in place during the COVID-19 pandemic, we are conducting ethnographic work with individuals who have embraced the stylistics and aesthetics of improvisation in acts of caring for, listening to, baking with, and recording their sourdough starters, as well as performing alongside their bread-kin. Imagine, in some instances, the multis…
Constitutionally entrenched Voice to Parliament
In 2017, the Uluru Statement from the Heart provided a consensus position on constitutional reform derived from Regional Dialogues drawing on experiences, views and aspirations of First Nations people. Among its recommendations is a constitutionally entrenched Voice to Parliament. While the government supports a watered-down Voice, this article identifies the key features of constitutional enshrinement that would enhance Australia’s institutions …
Introduction
Guest editor Kate Galloway presents an introduction to the special issue "Music, Sound, and the Aurality of the Environment in the Anthropocene."
Listening to Indigenous Knowledge of the Land in Two Contemporary Sound Art Installations
This essay addresses the silences and soundings of Rebecca Belmore's (Anishinaabe) and Julie Nagam's (Anishinaabe/Métis/German/Syrian) sound art, which reflects their environmentalism and profound commitment to Indigenous ways of knowing, making, and listening. Working at the intersection of sound art and politics, the two perform sonic interventions into settler colonial spaces—the National Parks system and the gallery, respectively. Belmore's W…

The Covid cyborg
This article examines the increasing tendency towards governance of people through their representation via data. In its most contemporary iteration, the COVID-19 pandemic has seen the release of contact tracing apps – in Australia, COVIDSafe. While public discourse about the apps has focused principally on the important issue of data privacy, there are other possible effects whereby participation in such schemes might become a prerequisite to ac…
The aurality of pipeline politics and listening for nacreous clouds
Tanya Tagaq's work is political, often tackling themes of environmentalism and Indigenous rights. The Inuk throat singer uses live performance and audiovisual media to engage themes of climate change and give voice to environmental violence. Her work diversifies the discourse of environmentalism to include the voices and environmental trauma experienced by marginalised peoples, specifically North American Indigenous-centred sounds and perspective…
Listening to and Composing with the Soundscapes of Climate Change
Listening to and Composing with the Soundscapes of Climate Change Kate Galloway (bio) Climate change and the soundscapes of the contemporary energy industries, including their environmental impact, are audible. The public, however, is still learning how to listen to, perceive, and express this audible environmental information. Since the early 2000s, Canadian composer Derek Charke has combined electroacoustic elements, field recordings, and acous…

The Legal Academy’s Engagements with Lawtech
This article argues that legal education is currently grappling with three narratives of technology’s role in either augmenting, disrupting or ending the current legal services environment. It identifies each of these narratives within features of curriculum design that respond to legal professional archetypes of how lawyers react to lawtech. In tracing how these influential narratives and associated archetypes feature in the law curriculum, the …
Soundwalking and the Aurality of Stardew Valley
This chapter focuses on the sound culture of the popular indie farming simulator Stardew Valley, and how its game audio reconnects players with nature and ecology, using music and environmental sounds that model ecological principles and facilitate ludic interaction with the materiality of nature. Applying the practice of soundwalking to gameplay revealed the subtle yet significant role of listening in Stardew Valley’s gameplay that is not explic…
The Role of Pateman’s Sexual Contract in Beneficial Interests in Property
The Profession(s)' Engagements with LawTech
This article argues that there are three narratives to technology's role in augmenting, disrupting or ending the current legal services environment-each of which gives life to particular legal professional archetypes in how lawyers react to LawTech. In tracing these influential narratives and associated archetypes, we map the evolving role of LawTech, the legal profession and legal services delivery. The article concludes by proffering a further …
One tale of property, in my own words
The power of the State to alter the conditions of land use through planning laws continues to attract theorisation at the possible intersection between planning and property. As planning laws become more complex, and by needs responsive to environmental degradation - including the consequences of climate change - landowners will arguably suffer loss of market value of their land despite broader community benefit. This article analyses the content…
Reproductive justice
Australia has seen a number of efforts at reform of abortion laws in recent years. Some jurisdictions have decriminalised abortion entirely, and other states have made efforts to reform abortion law without complete decriminalisation. At the other end of the spectrum, Queensland in 2018 listed abortion as a criminal offence. This article uses the framework of questions in the Queensland Law Reform Commission consultation paper to reprise the need…
Learning to feel like a lawyer
Contemporary higher education, including legal education, incorporates complexities that were not identified even a decade ago. Law programs first moved from traditional content-focussed programs toward incorporating critique and legal skills. Many are now working toward recognising inclusion and student wellbeing as integral to law graduates’ professional identities and skillsets. Yet the professional dispositions law teachers require to teach i…

Inside Outside Battery is a mobile media sound art installation for smartphone technologies that uses global positioning system (GPS) locative software to narrate walking visitors through the Battery, a heritage neighbourhood of St. John’s (Newfoundland, Canada). Auditory tourists, or soundwalkers, come to know the aural cultures of the Battery through the dynamic interactions of sound and place using site- and time-specific archival materials, s…
Big Data
Although it is part of core government business to collect information about its citizens, ‘big data’ has increased the scale, speed and complexity of data collection and use to such an extent that it is arguably qualitatively different from the record-keeping that has gone before it. Big data represents a radical shift in the balance of power between State and citizen. This article argues that embedding big data in government operations masks it…

Landowners' vs Miners' Property Interests
This article considers competing interests in land of freehold landowners and miners of coal seam gas. It provides an overview of common law understanding of property in land, and suggests that this framework is unsuitable for resolving directly competing interests. In addition, it argues that a philosophy of property that embraces a more holistic understanding of land and its stewardship is a more sustainable way to prioritise proprietary intere…

Thinking like a Lawyer
[Extract] In discussions leading up to the publication recently of the discipline standards for law, there was naturally a focus on thinking skills. Indeed many law students and practitioners would be familiar with the mantra of 'thinking like a lawyer'. Some claim that 'thinking like a lawyer' is a nebulous concept, others that it is a 'self-aggrandising sham...to justify the existence of a...special lawyer class'. Whether or not one accepts tha…

Grog or No Grog
Alcohol Management Plans ('AMPs') are presently under review in Queensland and the Northern Territory, and the High Court is due to hand down a decision on their validity in Queensland. Against this background, this brief examines the differing views on AMPs as racist incursions into citizens' rights on the one hand, and their importance in saving communities from alcohol-fuelled violence on the other. It recognises this as a 'wicked problem' but…
Garma
[Extract] A cultural exchange hosted by the Yothu Yindi Foundation, and celebrating the cultural inheritance of the Yolngu people in North East Arnhem Land, the Garma Festival is undoubtedly a leading cultural and intellectual event in Australia, if not internationally. A superb blend of culture, ideas, economics, politics, it provides the opportunity to re-orient our thinking with a focus on Yolngu experiences and priorities. This offers the cha…
Step up Feminists
[Extract] As we approach the 30th anniversary of the Sex Discrimination Act 1984 (Cth) ('SDA') it is timely to reflect on the status of women's equality in Australia. Could it be true to say, as some have suggested, that we inhabit a post-feminist era. The foundation of feminism — in all its guises — rests upon the establishment and defence of women's enjoyment of equal political, economic and social rights. While legislation such as the SDA ensh…
Queensland
Lately there has been a lot made in the media about a war on bikies and the implementation of other new laws, ostensibly designed to meet the expectations of Queenslanders that the government is getting tough on crime. Lawyers across the board have condemned the Queensland laws as illconceived, rash, hurried, irresponsible, self-serving and dangerous, consistently mentioning attacks on the rule of law, our system of government, and the separation…
Marriage and Equality
The marriage traditionally recognised at law is hardly the liberating concept that forms the foundation for the global movement for marriage equality. As an institution, it has traditionally represented a site of inequality for women and the social norms associated with that inequality continue to resonate. Yet despite these foundations, the institution continues at law even as the legal consequences of marriage have changed significantly, promot…
Indigenous Dispossession in the 21st Century
Northern Australia, that 39 per cent of landmass north of the Tropic of Capricorn, remains at the frontier of colonial expansionism. The most recent policy contribution to this imperative is the report of the Joint Select Committee on Northern Australia, Pivot North ('Report'). The Report is part of the latest process to develop a white paper aimed at defining policy for 'realising the full economic potential of the north.' It follows decades of …
