    The statue of Western Australia's first governor, Captain James Stirling, in central Perth, is hard to miss; there's also a mountain range, a suburban municipality and even a school named after him. As the state looks towards its bicentenary, new questions are being asked about James Stirling, including his involvement in frontier violence and in the British slave trade.

    Conserving Australia's Cultural Record
    Nodea, G ; Sloggett, R (University of Melbourne, 2019-09-23)
    At the Grimwade Centre, at the University of Melbourne ,Western disciplines like chemistry, physics, art history and archaeology help to analyse, understand, preserve and restore Australia’s cultural heritage. The conservation of Indigenous cultural heritage however requires knowledge that is very different to this. The partnership between The Warmun Art Centre and the Grimwade Centre enables the sharing of particular knowledge about Gija culture in ways that are Gija-led, it also shares important lessons about life in a remote Indigenous community and life at a university. Instigated by Gija Elders this partnership is enabling staff and students at the Grimwade Centre to learn from Gija people, and for Gija art workers to learn about conservation. It has shaped the way students at the Grimwade Centre are taught, and ensures that they are engaged in proper ways with knowledge, history, culture and lore that are instrumental in defining what it is to be Australian.

    On the Banks of the Tigris - a documentary that traces the forgotten history of Iraqi music
    Sloggett, R ( 2015-10-30)
    Decoupling people from their culture is a perennial tactic in war. The millions of Syrian refugees now seeking asylum across Europe retain little of their material culture, and within Syria cultural material is targeted for destruction. But people’s stories, songs and music do not need suitcases to survive, and it is worth being reminded that war is transient, regimes pass, but culture and identity are shared, enduring and powerful constructions.
