How to tell if you're Australian
by Chris O'Regan Here's the latest response to my E-Z home test for detecting Americans . Chris is a linguistics student at the University of Queensland, which is in Australia somewhere, and hails from Brisbane, which is in Australia somewhere. He says he enjoys ruminating on the Australian psyche and is interested in its speech characteristics. He was learning Verdurian for awhile, but otherwise seems sane.
Mark
If you're Australian...
  • You know hardly anything about the Constitution and what it actually contains. Before the whole republic thing, you may not have even known it existed.
  • You're familiar with Neighbours, Home and Away, Playschool, A Country Practice , Norman Gunston, Barry Humphries, Blue Heelers, Ray Martin, Bert Newton, Lisa McCune, Jon Burgess, Number 96, Molly Meldrum, Kerry O'Brien, and of course, Kerry Packer and Rupert Murdoch.
  • You can't remember past the second line of your national anthem, let alone the second verse . . .
  • Whether you're male or female, you watch a lot of sport. You watch the cricket, and support your footy team... which code is best is a matter of controversy and depends on your upbringing. You can be sure that the contest is between League, AFL, and maybe Union none of these fancy Northern Hemisphere games, like soccer or gridiron. If you're male, you can argue intricate points about their rules. You don't know so much about basketball, netball, hockey, baseball, etc. even if the national team are the world champions.

Australia on CD-ROM
It is too soon to tell how effective it has been as a leg-up for budding media producers, but with seven of the ten now available, we can begin to assess their cultural significance. How should we judge them? As dwellings for culture, we might look for an alternative to the monumental displays provided by exhibitions, books or documentaries. Our path through conventional cultural architecture is inevitably structured, even if we resist it, by the necessary occupation of physical space (a path through a gallery, chapter order or visual sequence). While these familiar limits are no doubt productive, we can still look to a brave new virtual medium for a different negotiation with its content. As part of Australia on CD, 24,000 copies of each title are being pressed for the 9,668 schools and 1,224 libraries of the country. No doubt there are many teachers relieved finally to have something of local significance for students to fiddle with their mice. Stepping back, though, what does this series reveal of our emerging virtual culture? Naturally, there is a strong indigenous theme among the selection. The digitisation of Aboriginal culture has had a fraught history. Some of the most promising indigenous titles, Punu (Museum of South Australia), Patterns of Power (National Gallery of Australia) and Yothu Yindi are yet to come out, despite years of work. Current titles are mostly research tools, such as the Aboriginal Encyclopedia and the recent ATSIROM (extensive set of databases on Aboriginal issues published by RMIT). It is a great relief, therefore, to come across such as personable title as Moorditj.

ABOUT SOC.CULTURE.AUSTRALIAN The soc.culture.australian newsgroup was established in November 1990, thanks largely to Ann Nicholson's persistent efforts. It is devoted to the discussion of all aspects of Australian culture. Iain Sinclair put together the first FAQ for this group. Ann Nicholson took it over in early 1993. She did a major reorganisation in June 1994 before handing it over to Stephen Wales (stephenw@mincom.com) in July 1994. This FAQ is generally posted to s.c.a in the first week of each month. If I'm travelling on business or otherwise detained, I'll post it as soon as possible after the first week of the month. There are many other related newsgroups. If your article is more appropriate for another newsgroup, please post it there first you'll get the audience you're looking for. news.announce.newusers

About The Flag and The Aboriginal Flag

Australian Institutions and Official Links
... Weather in Australia
The Australian flag is composed of Union Jack and six white stars on a blue background. The Union Jack is a part of the flag due to the fact that Australia is a former British colony and is still a member of the Commonwealth. The five stars to the right are called "The Southern Cross" and represent a constellation of stars visible in the southern hemisphere. The last and biggest star is called the Federation Star. It represents the Federation of the Australian colonies in 1901.
There is also the Aboriginal flag. It was created in 1971. The black represents the Aboriginal people, the red the Earth and their spiritual relationship to the land, and the yellow the sun, the giver of life.

30 October 2003
The ASU works closely with the cultural sector, developing training packages for our members working in local government libraries, museums, and art galleries, including members working as community arts officers.
Through this contact we are being asked to assist our colleagues involved in cultural work in their campaign around the USA-Australia Free Trade Agreement (FTA). Their campaign is also ours. The Australian Writers' Guild has prepared an article "Culture all carved up?" that the ASU believes contains information all those concerned about the FTA and GATS should be aware of. We encourage you to read the article (part of which is reproduced below, along with a link to the full item) so you can be aware of what is at stake. The article asks for action and we ask you to consider participating in the campaign to ensure our politicians know how we feel about the serious implications of the FTA.
