land and language: translating aboriginal cultures

Abstract

this article arose from my experience reviewing films books theatre dance art I hadn't realized I was reviewing a conference until I'd written it up together with four other conferences all of which blended into my phd dissertation it was a delight to attend an aboriginal conference where all presenters were aboriginal rather than white indian experts the lingering feeling was of delight camaraderie mutual nurturance community any mishearings or other mis-takes in this article relating to the conference I unreservedly blame on coyote raven and sasquatch who kept putting their paws wings beaks hands and such in the way of my ears eyes and nose as much as they could any praise for this work I disclaim personally deferring it rather to narrative chance chance operations and trickster discourse kukwstumlhkacw tsexox
