In this episode we discuss two of the heavy lifters from the enlightenment when it comes to spreading a scientific concept of race: Buffon and Linnaeus. Here are some resources for this topic: Try Jim’s blog post about Buffon and race: http://jbindon.people.ua.edu/race-and-human-variation/darwins-borrowed-allegory-and-the-apocryphal-six-races-of-buffon Ashley, Montagu. “Man's most dangerous myth: the fallacy of race.” New York, Harper (1942). Linnaeus’s 1735 first attempt at classification is available here: https://archive.org/details/mobot31753002972252 While it turns out that Victor of Aveyron did not turn up until 1800, long after Linnaeus was dead and buried, there were other wild children that almost certainly caught the botanists attention. In his 1858 10th edition of Systema Naturae, he cites a wild child from Lithuania in 1661, and others from 1344 and 1719, unclear where they came from. For an English version of much of Linnaeus’s work, including a discussion of changes in human classification throughout his 12 editions of Systema Naturae on human classification, see Bendyshe, Thomas. “The history of anthropology: On the anthropology of Linnaeus.” Memoirs of the Anthropological Society of London 1 (1865): 421-458.
Location is inherently a core part of Australia's First Nation's culture and GIS technology is now assisting in the education of all Australians by providing additional insight and context to aboriginal heritage through maps. Andrew Dowding and Paul Farrell discuss the connection between GIS and aboriginal communities, the importance of digitally documenting indigenous knowledge through maps and their joint venture, Winyama. In this episode: 0:51 Andrew, as the managing director of an indigenous digital mapping company, what led you down this career path? 2:42 Over the last 12 months a partnership has formed between Tarruru and NGIS called Winyama, what is the major aim of Winyama? 6:37 What are some of the ways maps and GIS can be used within indigenous communities? 10:34 What careers can young indigenous Australian's pursue in the geospatial industry with regard to educating others about their aboriginal heritage? 16:35 Tarruru was the main partner for Australia's first Indigenous Mapping Workshop in 2018, what were some of the key takeaways from this event?

Christopher Morton (University of Oxford) discusses the concept of the relational museum applied to an album from the Anthropological Society in London. This paper takes the notion of the ‘relational museum’ – the concept that museum objects to some degree conceal the mass of relations that lie behind them – and applies it to a nineteenth-century album compiled at meetings of the Anthropological Society in London. The album is something of a ‘scrapbook’, as such this album is a particularly important ‘relational’ object, enabling a rich and nuanced insight into the relationships between photography, anthropological knowledge, and scientific networks in nineteenth-century London. The paper gives an overview of the album’s relational networks and suggest ways in which it shifts our understanding of photography and anthropology in a crucial period in the discipline’s early history.
