So, Australia has a brand-new National Cultural Policy. And, you know what? I think it’s pretty great.
My latest ‘and another thing’ vlog walk the line between cautious optimism and being a critical friend.
The National Cultural Policy launch, dubbed Revive by the Federal Government, promised ‘a new era for Australia’s arts, entertainment and cultural sector’ and delivered much-needed optimism at a time when the stakes for artists, arts organisations and audiences have never been so high.
You can read my response to Revive on Artshub.
AI policy
I am a concerned and conscientious objector to the use of Artificial Intelligence (AI) technologies. You can read more about my many objections in my recent piece on raining on the parade of generative AI in the arts (and everywhere else).
If you consume or use my work or writing, you can be sure that the creativity, labour and language that goes into it are either my own or drawn from the wisdom of the clever humans I reference or cite, and that I do not intentionally use Al to research, generate or edit in any part of my writing or publishing processes.

I undertake the majority of my research, writing, advocacy and sector development work on a self-funded basis.
