'As the bushfire raged, we wrote, with an ominous eye to the horizon, about bodies in crisis, and dead bodies as symbols of resistance. We were spotlighting protesters on the line, what it takes to express resistance in an age of violence and extremities.' (Introduction)
1 Indigenous Creative Practice Research: between Convention and Creativity Olivia Guntarik , Linda Daley , 2017 single work essay

'This article addresses some critical issues in the research environment of Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander candidates at Australian universities. It will be useful to non-Indigenous supervisors of Indigenous students, as well as Indigenous students considering the different kinds of creative practice projects possible at postgraduate level. The article examines the nexus between Indigenous knowledge and creative practice research. The significance of this relationship becomes more apparent with increasing participation of Indigenous creative practitioners in postgraduate education. By drawing on our experience as supervisors of PhD- and MA-level higher degrees with Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander candidates, we discuss some of the issues that may arise for supervisors and Indigenous researchers in creative practice research environments. Through Indigenous candidates’ creative projects, we argue these works provide insights into the existing conventions of practice, knowledge and research in Western education. Thus, we demonstrate how Indigenous knowledge has contributed to creative practice research, and broadened its horizons and methods of inquiry.' (Abstract)
