Shortlisted for the 2021 Prime Minister's Literary Award for
Australian History. Representing Australian Aboriginal Music and
Dance 1930-1970 offers a rethinking of recent Australian music
history. In this open access book, Amanda Harris presents accounts
of Aboriginal music and dance by Aboriginal performers on public
stages. Harris also historicizes the practices of non-Indigenous
art music composers evoking Aboriginal music in their works,
placing this in the context of emerging cultural institutions and
policy frameworks. Centralizing auditory worlds and audio-visual
evidence, Harris shows the direct relationship between the limits
on Aboriginal people's mobility and non-Indigenous representations
of Aboriginal culture. This book seeks to listen to Aboriginal
accounts of disruption and continuation of Aboriginal cultural
practices and features contributions from Aboriginal scholars
Shannon Foster, Tiriki Onus and Nardi Simpson as personal
interpretations of their family and community histories.
Contextualizing recent music and dance practices in broader
histories of policy, settler colonial structures, and
postcolonizing efforts, the book offers a new lens on the
development of Australian musical cultures. The ebook editions of
this book are available open access under a CC BY-NC-ND 4.0 license

The origins of anthropology lie in expeditionary journeys. But
since the rise of immersive fieldwork, usually by a sole
investigator, the older tradition of team-based social research has
been largely eclipsed. Expeditionary Anthropology argues that
expeditions have much to tell us about anthropologists and the
people they studied. The book charts the diversity of
anthropological expeditions and analyzes the often passionate
arguments they provoked. Drawing on recent developments in gender
studies, indigenous studies, and the history of science, the book
argues that even today, the 'science of man' is deeply inscribed by
its connections with expeditionary travel.

Brings together both Australian and international work on
Indigenous music and dance, with chapters centred around practices
from Arnhem Land, Western Australia, the Tiwi Islands, the Torres
Strait, Taiwan, Aotearoa/New Zealand and North America, and
Indigenous scholars authoring or co-authoring more than half of the
book. Combines practice-led scholarship with research-informed
creative practice. Considers music and dance together as often
inseparable parts of performance practices, an approach achieved
through the interdisciplinarity of its contributing authors. Music,
Dance and the Archive interrogates historical access and responses
to archives by showing how Indigenous performing artists and
community members, and academic researchers (Indigenous and
non-Indigenous) are collaborating to bring life to objects that
have been stored in archives. It highlights the relationship
between music and dance, as embodied forms of culture, and records
in archives, bringing together interdisciplinary research from
musicologists, dance historians, linguists, Indigenous Studies
scholars and practitioners. The volume examines how music and dance
are recorded in audio-visual records, what uses are made of these
records (in renewal of cultural practice or in revitalising
performances that have fallen out of use), and the relationship
between the live body and historical objects. While this book
focuses on Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander music and dance,
it also features research on Indigenous music and dance from beyond
Australia, including New Zealand, Taiwan and North America. Music,
Dance and the Archive is an insightful culmination of original,
previously unpublished research from a diverse selection of
scholars in Indigenous history, musicology, linguistics, archival
science and dance history.

The Pacific and Regional Archive for Digital Sources in Endangered
Cultures (PARADISEC) has been on the cutting edge of digital
archiving, building a significant historical collection and
community of practice engaged in the preservation and accessibility
of research materials. Over the ten years of PARADISEC's operation,
the repository has grown to represent over 860 languages from
across the world, including cultural materials from the Pacific
region and South-East Asia, North America, Africa and Europe. With
over 5000 hours of audio, the extent of the archival material, as
well as the inclusion of a variety of styles such as songs,
narratives and elicitation, has resulted in an invaluable resource
for researchers and communities alike.PARADISEC's innovation in
archival practice allows communities to access original recordings
of their own cultural heritage, and provides fieldworkers with a
wealth of primary material. Research, Records and Responsibility
explores developments in collaborative archiving practice between
archives and the communities they serve and represent,
incorporating case studies of historical recordings, visual data
and material culture. It brings together the work of Australian and
international scholars, commemorating ten years of PARADISEC, and
reflects on the development and future directions of research and
language archiving.
Laccases are multi-copper oxidase enzymes that catalyze the
oxidation of a broad range of chemical substrates while reducing O2
directly to water. They are typically found in fungal organisms and
plants, and are part of the ligninolitic consortium together with
other oxidative enzymes that degrade lignin. This book provides new
research on the applications, investigations and research insights
on laccase.
