Speaking with the river
This article is underpinned by the hypothesis that if Australia is to reassess and improve its relationship to and use of rivers and river systems, then more holistic ways of understanding rivers, and strategies for representing and communicating this understanding, must be developed and brought together. Held over two days in August 2019 at the Lismore campus of Southern Cross University, 'Speaking With the River' was an interdisciplinary sympos…
Audiovisual gesture and spectromorphology
In this article, we detail a project that seeks to expand the ways in which the concepts of gesture and spectromorphology can be understood and applied in audiovisual projects. We argue that understanding spectromorphology in visual domains requires consideration of the wavelengths of light that give us an image. In this project, the complex interaction between clouds and solar radiation becomes the medium for understanding this concept of visual…
Abstracts from the Spectra 2018 Symposium Part 2
Grayson CookeFor the past 40 years, Landsat satellites have been circling Earth. They orbit at around 700 km from the Earth’s surface, completing a full orbit every 90 minutes and returning to the same location every 16 days. Equipped with sensors that record reflected electromagnetic radiation in the visible light and infrared wavelengths, they are used by scientists to track environmental change over time.Since July 2017 I have been working wit…
Adnyamathanha Archives and Colonial Ruins
The exhibition UNSETTLED: Colonial Ruin in the Flinders Ranges is a critical examination of settler-colonial nostalgia in the Flinders Ranges, within an artistic context. The project is underpinned by a partnership with the State Library of South Australia (SLSA) and the Adnyamathanha Traditional Lands Association, and it was exhibited at the SLSA in Adelaide, March–May 2017. Spread across the SLSA Institute Gallery, on the videowall in the Spenc…
Art-Science Interactions in the Destruction of an Archive
The after | image project is an inquiry into notions of material memory and forgetting and their intersection with archival preservation and dissolution. The project involves the intentional destruction by the authors of a photographic archive using various acids, chemical compounds and oxidizing agents; this destruction is recorded using time-lapse macrophotography. The authors thus challenge the often-intense human desire to retain a record of …
Performing archival remix in Outback and Beyond
Outback and Beyond is a live audio-visual performance and collaboration between myself and Rome-based sound-artist Mike Cooper. It is a live remix of films and images from the National Film and Sound Archive and the State Library of South Australia, accompanied by Mike Cooper's live soundtrack of lap-steel guitar and deconstructed Blues, and a libretto recounting the adventures and misadventures of Charles Todd, the engineer who built the Overlan…
A scholarly affair
This paper reflects on the conceptual framework of the CSAA 2010 conference, which was focused on the theme of ‘a scholarly affair.’ The argument posed is that cultural studies scholars have an ongoing concern for the difficulties, complexities, challenges, limitations as well as critical, creative and clarifying possibilities bound up in the very institutional and everyday contexts of knowledge and cultural production in which they live, work an…
Startmaking sense
While being shown footage recently of a live audio-visual performance of mine an abstract visualization of a piece of electro-acoustic music a colleague asked me the fateful question, Yes, but what is it about? He was asking, essentially, What does it mean that these images and sounds are occurring before me, what is the status of this audio-visual material, and what kind of spectator am I, how can I read this, how can I make sense of this? Despi…
Effacing the Face
Botox is a cosmetic technology, and is thus concerned with changes to the appearance of the face and the surface of the skin. Botox is one of the many technologies that form the arsenal of an ‘appearance industry’ dedicated to reducing ‘the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles’ wherever they may appear. In this paper, an analysis of Botox and its milieu will reveal the foibles and preoccupations of a culture obsessed with the face and the surfac…
