Security Freedom Safety Democracy - for whom and at what cost?

An interview with Dayak activist and environmentalist Emmanuela Shinta. In this short documentary, recorded in 2019, Emmanuela Shinta introduces us to her people; paints us the beauty of Kalimantan; and explains the important environmental work of Ranu Welum. To read the associated article detailing international corruption and the murders of environmental defenders go to my website: www.craiggarrett.online. (The article was written under smoke-stained tannin-yellow skies in Canberra and under d...

Black GST — Genocide, Sovereignty, Treaty

As part of 2018’s Seven Days of Resistance WAR: Warriors for the Aboriginal Resistance, held a Black GST Public Forum. Long-time Indigenous activists Tony Birch; Margi Thorpe; Robbie Thorpe; and non-Indigenous ally Clare Land talked Genocide, Sovereignty, Treaty. This audio is an excerpt from that discussion. A cultural warning: the audio here contains the voice of a deceased person: Alice Pearl Daiguma Eather’s ‘My Story is Your Story’. The music in this piece is ‘Spirit’ by bangarra dance comp...

The House Conspiracy

This document Declassified May 11, 1973 I sense the presence of others. In this Place This continent and its islands This country is one remove from the cultural source, twice removed, three times; a continent–country that is an ad hoc triage on a home caesarean gone wrong. Every culture longs for a place in history that never was. The Portuguese call it Saudade. Like visiting my mother’s hospital bed in Canberra (Ngunnawal Country), my grief upon leaving her each day was for the impending loss,...

Canberra Is On Ngunnawal Country - Welcome to Country by Nin Jannette Phillips

In May 2017 I was a sound artist at the Noted Festival and was privileged to hear Ngunnawal Elder Nin Jannette Phillips deliver the Welcome to Country in the foyer of the National Library. At times our surroundings exerted a slightly surreal juxtaposition and contradiction when related to the histories and stories being shared with us. The sound piece accompanying this article is an extract from Nin Jannette Phillips’ Welcome. The music is from Bangarra’s Our Land People Stories album. A warning...

RainbowFamiliesDoco

This doco follows five different LGBTIQ+ families. It began as a series of five themed, stand-alone news interviews about marriage equality. I then re-edited them into a single one-hour show. To give the final piece added relevance (the ‘debate’ evolved) I added a history of the 1961 Marriage Act, bridging audio outlining events from the weeks of each original broadcast (e.g. Greens Senator Janet Rice), and music.
