Podcasts about dark emu

This week, we’re revisiting one of our most powerful and thought-provoking yarns—with the legendary Uncle Bruce Pascoe. A proud Bunurong, Tasmanian, and Yuin man, Uncle Bruce is a celebrated author, historian, and farmer, best known for his groundbreaking book Dark Emu. In this episode, we dive deep into the truth-telling of our past, and the future we can create through Indigenous knowledge, self-determination, and sustainable land practices. Uncle Bruce shares stories of resilience, the revival of traditional Aboriginal agriculture, and the importance of defining ourselves—on our own terms. From revitalising native grains on his farm to pushing back against systemic racism and the myth of the ‘hunter-gatherer’, this conversation is as inspiring as it is urgent. Whether this is your first listen or a return to a favourite, this yarn reminds us why truth-telling and cultural knowledge must be at the heart of Australia’s journey forward.

BRUCE PASCOE IS GOING TO DIEBruce Pascoe is a writer and farmer with extensive knowledge of the Australian landscape that reframes the colonised whitewashing of centuries of First Nations innovation. He has published 36 books including Dark Emu, which won the NSW Premier's Award for Literature in 2016. Bruce is a deep thinker and so articulate about what it is to bear witness to the cycles of life and death in the natural world, and what he feels about his own legacy…and how much there's still left to achieve.Instagram (IG @Bitheega)Marieke Hardy Is Going To Die is a podcast made by Marieke Hardy (IG @marieke_hardy).You can follow at IG @GoingToDiePodMusic by Lord Fascinator (IG @lordfascinator)Produced by Darren Scarce (IG @Dazz26)Video edits by Andy Nedelkovski (IG @AndyNeds)Artwork by Lauren Egan (IG @heylaurenegan)Photography by Eamon Leggett (IG @anxietyoptions)With thanks to Amelia Chappelow (IG @ameliachappelow)Camilla McKewen (IG @CamillaLucyLucy)and Rhys Graham (IG @RhysJGraham)Drop an email to mariekehardyisgoingtodie@gmail.comWhilst acknowledging the privilege that comes with having the space to discuss death and mortality, we want to also recognise that discussing these topics can raise some wounds.

A very warm welcome to Helena McFadzean, who is joining the Disintegrator wrecking crew. This week's episode features one of our favorite artists, Tega Brain. In this episode, we talk through two of our favorite pieces, both of which are not just great exercises in conceptual design, but are actual practical engineering projects whose artistry consists in real solutioning. References from the pod: Sam Lavigne is an artist and engineer and educator whose collaborates frequently with Tega Brain. Both his creative technical work and his writing are highly recommended.The two pieces we talk about most are Cold Call, a collaboration with Sam Levine, and Solar Protocol, a collaboration with Alex Nathanson, and Benedetta Piantella, among others.Tega references the Critical Engineering group (Julian Oliver, Gordan Savičić, Danja Vasiliev), whose manifesto is very much worth reading, and 100rabbits, whose blog and methodological work are super super engaging.In climate-related discussions, we talk about Dark Emu by Bruce Pascoe, Robin Wall Kimmerer's Breeding Sweetgrass, Holly Jean Buck's Ending Fossil Fuels, the concept of ‘feral computing' from Austin Wade Smith, and the data work by Crowther Lab on forest development.Marek briefly mentions Joshua Citarella's absolutely phenomenal ‘A Public Option for Social Media'.Thanks for your patience while both Roberto and Marek were in mega-travel mega-project mode. We will be releasing something very large in the next few weeks to make up for it. :)

A University of Queensland-led research team says the key to a more sustainable food future may be a better understanding of ancient Indigenous food production systems. Their ARC Discovery project ‘Testing the Dark Emu hypothesis' combines bioarchaeology, archaeobotany, palynology, ethnobotany, and plant genetics in partnership with Indigenous communities to challenge existing perspectives.

Davydd is back from holidays and shares some of the highlights of his travels including visits to Woolshed Brewing, the Prairie Hotel in Parachilna and the William Creek Hotel. Then it's time to chat with Dayvid to chat all things Sailors Grave - tasting packs of delicious beers to accompany this episode can be found here: https://the-coolroom-podcast.myshopify.com/products/sailors-grave-tasting-6-pack We learn all about the brewery's focus on native ingredients and the stories behind some of their best known beers including the Dark Emu and the Lemon Meringue Sour. We hear about their exciting plans for the future and a little about their collaboration with Burnley [stay tuned for Episode 200 for more on that one] and Dayvid's advice for beer reps. Warren reveals he drinks beers straight from the can, we discover there is only one cow in the whole of Gippsland and we descend deep into the mysteries of correct apostrophe use. Oh and somehow Clint from Pocket Beagles manages to get quite a few mentions...  

Andrew has been a community development worker, mechanic, small business owner, and now co-founder of Eco Villages Australia - an organisation that helps people live collaboratively. Co-founder and resident of the Maleny Eco Village, he strives to live a life of economic, cultural, social and ecological regeneration.  "Social disconnection has hit epidemic proportions. Now is the time to find a way to connect with self, each other and the earth." In this episode, Andrew speaks to the importance of valuing native plants and medicines and the wisdom of first nations people to learn about relationships and reciprocal living. From sacred economics to his perspective of the eight forms of capital/wealth, Andrew shares how he financially co-seeded an eco-village with 0% interest to remodel housing loans and trust. He gives some insight into life in the village and how they consider individual capacity, the gift economy and how 'working together' is their superpower. Andrew now travels to offer free forums to anyone interested in learning how to start or be part of a small-scale village that cares for the earth, people and economic equality in the face of the current housing crisis. He calls himself 'a busker of ideas' and discusses his unique perspective of 'social healing' as a form of medicine and advocates for confronting trauma collectively within the support of a village, rather than in isolation."

Today on Mushroom Hour we are excited to chat with internationally renowned wild foods expert, author, and public speaker Miles Irving. Miles has worked with some of the world's best chefs and has been a pioneer in the Wild Food Renaissance. In 2009, he authored The Forager Handbook, hailed by many as the 'foraging bible'. Through communicating with people around the world and delving deep into the environmental - and emotional - issues facing us, he has sought to bring together traditional ecological knowledge and those hungry for land-based connection, community, and culture. Reconnecting with the life-giving wild land which has long sustained us is key. There is not only a way forward but a wildly different way of looking at the world.   TOPICS COVERED:   Exploring Nature with Father & Grandfather   Connection with Nature Starts with 1 Species   Become a Recovering Weirdo   Activating Powers of Observation & Pattern Recognition   The Forager Handbook   Pulling Down the Neoliberal Regime   Greenwashing   Guiding a Lost Society Back to Nature   Going Deeper into Ecology through Wild Foods   Traditional Ecological Knowledge   Common Edible Plants   Nettle and The Umami Equation   Working with Acorn Flour   Porcini's GABA-induced Happiness?   EPISODE RESOURCES:    World Wild Website: https://www.worldwild.org.uk/   Goldcrest (bird species): https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Goldcrest   Mark Lewis (inspiration): https://prn.live/its-all-about-food-mark-lewis-chmachyakyakya-8000-year-crops-07-26-16/   Chamaenerion angustifolium (AKA Fireweed): https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Chamaenerion_angustifolium   Braiding Sweetgrass: https://milkweed.org/book/braiding-sweetgrass   The Wild Wisdom of Weeds: https://www.chelseagreen.com/product/the-wild-wisdom-of-weeds/   Tending the Wild: https://www.ucpress.edu/book/9780520280434/tending-the-wild   Dark Emu: https://www.goodreads.com/book/show/21401526-dark-emu   Boletus edulis (AKA Porcini): https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Boletus_edulis

“I want us to really love our country and not see it as the problem. Stop talking about sharks and spiders and snakes. Start talking about the beauty of a grassland.”  Bruce Pascoe and Bill Gammage need no introduction. Both have authored books that changed the conversation about pre-settlement history in Australia and speak to the importance of listening to First Nations wisdom: Bruce with his groundbreaking Dark Emu, which argued that Indigenous people did not follow a hunter-gatherer lifestyle at the time of colonisation, and Bill with his 2011 book The Biggest Estate on Earth: How Aborigines Made Australia, which explored how Aboriginal people have managed the land to their advantage for millennia.  Now, Bruce and Bill join forces to continue the conversation in Country: Future Fire, Future Farming, delving into the remarkable agricultural and land care practises of First Nations people. Country examines how, through complex seasonal burning programs, Aboriginal people managed the land to avoid the late season destructive bushfires we fear today.  Together they join writer Sophie Cunningham to discuss how employing Indigenous land management practises is critical to creating a more sustainable future for people and country.   The bookseller for this event was The Paperback Bookshop.  Featured music is ‘Red Orchard' by Justnormal, frumhere.

During a wander around the farm, they discuss native crops and grasses, food sustainability and farming and ducks. Then you'll meet humanitarian architect Esther Charlesworth. The co-founder of Architects Without Frontiers joins Jonathan to understand what role design can play in response to disaster. From the floods in NSW and Queensland to the war and destruction in Ukraine, there's a lot for the built environment profession to do now… and well into the future. And finally, resident design expert Colin Bisset gives you the lowdown on the origins of the white picket fence. The plain wooden fence has been around for a very long time, but he asks: who decided to make something prettier?

Writer and farmer Bruce Pascoe and historian Bill Gammage discuss their new book, Country: Future Fire, Future Farming. They explain how Aboriginal people were, and are, farmers and agriculturalists – and what we urgently need to learn from them, for the sake of our forests, climate, and ecologies. Bill and Bruce also explain how and why First Nations people need to benefit from sharing their knowledge. Bruce Pascoe is a Yuin, Bunurong and Tasmanian man. He is the author of many books including, Dark Emu. Bill Gammage is Emeritus Professor at the Humanities Research Centre of the ANU. He is the author of several books including, The Biggest Estate On Earth: How Aborigines Made Australia. Broadcast on 12 April 2022.

Co-presented with Melbourne Writers' Festival With its descriptions of the sophisticated economic and socio-political livelihoods of many First Nations' communities, Bruce Pascoe's 2014 multi-award-winning Dark Emu called for a reconsideration of pre-colonial Aboriginal Australia. Confronting criticism from some who reject its portrayal of Aboriginal agriculturalists, and following the COVID-cancellation of their anticipated Melbourne Writers' Festival session, Bruce and eminent historian Tom Griffiths (The Art of Time Travel) come together to consider the productive conversation emerging around Australia's understanding of Aboriginal histories, and discuss the best way to deepen our shared knowledge of our nation's vital first stories.

It doesn't mean acceptance...When you love something, you're not silent about it.” – Vicky Shukuroglou Loving Country: A Guide to Sacred Australia is a guidebook by Dark Emu author Bruce Pascoe and co-author and photographer Vicky Shukuroglou. It offers a new way to explore and fall in love with Australia by seeing it through an Indigenous lens. The duo speaks with ABC Radio National's Daniel Browning about their beautifully designed road map that celebrates some 65,000 years of inhabitancy, including the fish traps at Brewarrina and rivers that feed the Great Barrier Reef, and the need to love and protect Country amidst the recent and ongoing destruction and devastation of sacred sites in this land.  See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Dark Emu was a publishing phenomenon that wanted to re-write the history of Indigenous Australia but it's also been challenged by historians and anthropologists. So, what do we know about what life was really like in Australia before the arrival of Europeans?

In this episode of Australia, Explained, we break down the hunter-gatherer myth surrounding First Nations communities, what their lives were like before colonisation and how they practised farming/land management.Bits and pieces mentioned:Bill Gammage's quoteShaping the landscapePermanent settlements in Yuwibara landThis week, Tania recommended a map of Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander countries in Australia.

Like our previous guest, Lynne Kelly, in part 1 of this series on Songlines, Margo Neale is a pioneer. Margo is of Aboriginal and Irish descent, from the Kulin nation with Gumbayngirr clan connections. And she's the lead curator of the extraordinary exhibition Songlines: Tracking the Seven Sisters, that has made such an incredible mark on Australia, and is about start its high-profile world tour. At the same time, the First Knowledges book series Margo is bringing together has started with an instant best-seller - Songlines: The Power and the Promise, which Margo co-wrote with Lynne. The second book in the series, on design, is out now, and the following one (by Bill Gammage and Bruce Pascoe) steps straight into the thick of what's become known in Australia as ‘The Dark Emu debate' (triggered by Pascoe's book). That's the pointy end of our reckoning with our still largely unconscious Western colonial worldview. And it's doing it in a way that might just help us finally transcend entrenched feuds, and reveal to more of us the enormous benefits on offer in combining our respective knowledge systems - the most powerful knowledge systems ever known. This is the nub of Margo and Lynne's pioneering work. There's something missing in our reconciliation processes, they say, and by extension with our understanding of how to be fully human in the world, intrinsic to regenerating country as the source of all life. Margo Neale is Head of the National Museum of Australia's Indigenous Knowledges Curatorial Centre. She is also an Adjunct Professor in the Australian National University's Centre for Indigenous History. In addition to former fame as a touring go-go dancer! This conversation was recorded online at Kimberley Cottages and its Windjana Wellness centre, run by local permaculture legend Wendy Albert, on 23 August 2021, with Margo speaking from her home away from home near Braidwood in New South Wales.

GUEST: Beni McKenzie, social worker in practice in the Gold Coast region of Queensland. Beni is Vice-President of the AASW (South) Qld Branch and a member of the Australian Association of Social Workers (AASW) National Advisory Panel for Climate Action. Over a number of  years, Beni has been active in finding ways to embed eco-social work practice principles into his mainstream work and opportunities to spread the word on eco-social approaches to his colleagues and other social workers at local, regional, and national levels.  INTRODUCTION TO THIS EPISODE An upsurge in green or eco-social work theorising can be traced back as far as the mid to late 1990s but its incorporation into mainstream practice in Australia has been a much more recent phenomenon. Academic research and social work training institution interest in eco-social work approaches started to pick up here around the mid-2000s and was given increased impetus by World Social Work Day events in 2017 themed on ‘Promoting Community and Environmental Sustainability' one of the sustainable development (SD) pillars of the international, Global Agenda for Social Work and Social Development initiative, launched in 2012.  Stimulated by the increased interest in eco-social work ideas occurring at that time, a number of branches of the AASW, the peak social work organisation in Australia, started to meet, to share eco-social work ideas and practice and to network this information with colleagues. INTERVIEW TALKING POINTS –approximate time elapsed location in minutes. Guest self-introduction – 2.38 Guest perception of ESW practice in 2021 – 5.05 How can ESW help tackle climate change and other SD challenges? – 7.21 Why should the SW mainstream be involved with physical environmental challenges? – 11.47 Opportunities for ESW practice in the short to medium term future. – 15.20 Meso and macro level ESW advocacy focussed on climate change and public health – 18.56 Guest closing comments - including reflection on the lack of a systems approach to current environmental budgeting in Queensland – 23.25 Close of interview – 30.43 REFERENCES AND RESOURCES MENTIONED IN THE DISCUSSION Associate Professor Jennifer Boddy Griffith University – see various relevant research outputs Beyond Zero Emissions (BZE) “is an internationally recognised think tank that shows through independent research and innovative solutions how Australia can prosper in a zero-emissions economy.” For example, see BZE's Million Jobs Plan which shows “how in just five years, renewables and low emissions projects can deliver 1.8 million new jobs in the regions and communities where these are needed most.” Professor Lena Dominelli – see various relevant research outputs The Climate and Health Alliance (CAHA) is “a coalition of health care stakeholders who work together to see the threat to human health from climate change and ecological degradation addressed through prompt policy action. The membership of CAHA includes organisations and individuals from across the health sector, with organisations representing health care professionals from medicine, nursing, public health, social work and psychology, as well as health care service providers, research and academic institutions, and health consumers.” A good example of CAHA's diverse campaigns and projects is its advocacy with the federal government to develop a National Strategy on Climate, Health and Well-being for Australia. Micro, meso and macro practice opportunities within eco-social work. For some suggestions see: Boetto (2017)  AASW CPD training (2020) and Nicholson/CAHA (2020) Author Bruce Pascoe's book Dark Emu (2014) which ‘puts forward an argument for a reconsideration of the hunter-gatherer tag for pre-colonial Aboriginal Australians. The evidence insists that Aboriginal people right across the continent were using domesticated plants, sowing, harvesting, irrigating, and storing — behaviours inconsistent with the hunter-gatherer tag.' The book has generated much public debate and some useful critique since its publication. Project Drawdown: ‘The World's Leading Resource for Climate Solutions' with a ‘mission to help the world reach “Drawdown”— the point in the future when levels of greenhouse gases in the atmosphere stop climbing and start to steadily decline, thereby stopping catastrophic climate change — as quickly, safely, and equitably as possible.' The educational resources on the website are well presented, engaging and solution focussed. For example, see the Climate Solutions 101 video series. Queensland state budgetary support announcements for renewable energy and low carbon technologies in 2021. Quiet time spent in nature – there is a growing understanding in Australia and internationally of the health and wellbeing benefits of spending time in the natural world or green spaces. Self-care – especially maintaining adult mental wellbeing in the face of climate and eco-anxiety and eco-grief. The NFP Psychology for a Safe Climate group based in Melbourne have a wealth of relevant resources on their portal site. A growing number of groups and organisations are also exploring the best way to support the health and wellbeing of children in the face of similar stressors – including the Australian Psychological Society and the Emerging Minds group. Systems mapping. Discussion about future social work assessment approaches which incorporate physical environmental factors is also occurring about health sector and hospital based social work roles. For example, it has been suggested that existing patient/client protocols for psychosocial assessment, intervention, education, and discharge planning for vulnerable groups could be modified to include immediate physical environmental threats such as heat waves or mental health vulnerabilities associated with longer term physical environmental impacts. Such impacts are already  occurring in the aftermath of natural disaster events intensified by global heating. Social work skills could also contribute to community climate change adaptation planning strategies to better protect future human health and wellbeing as global heating impacts increase.

Bambi Gosbell is a bit of a local icon. Not necessarily for farming, but as a Wedding Portrait Photographer in Gympie for the past 19 years. We had a great chat about her foray into the world of permaculture, biodynamics and of course, the growth of her Food Forest in such a short time frame. Bambi's enthusiasm really reminds us that anyone can be more self-sufficient - it's just a matter of time and passion. Growing up on a cattle property, Bambi has had a secret love of the wide open spaces and simplicity that farm life brings. When she met her husband Andrew 17 years ago, she never expected to live and work on a Aquaculture Farm breeding red claw crayfish. At the age of 40 she decided to resign from wedding photography, turn her photography studio into a luxury B&B, and relocate to a home office to live life on the farm. Nine months later, Bambi designed and built a Food Forest along with the help of a local permaculture group. Within six months she completed a Permaculture Design Certification (PDC), and more recently has thrown herself into the world of biodynamics and learning Regenerative Farming methods; which she is implementing into the 15 acres of land surrounding her husband's crayfish ponds. She runs a small flock of Wiltipoll Sheep using Holistic Grazing principles. Her ideal farming lifestyle would be a self-sufficient Homesteading one, with minimal input and full of beautiful organically grown seasonal produce. And of course, sharing her knowledge with those who are ready to facilitate change of their own. Bambi's journey has only just begun but her passion is palpable. -- Thank you for watching. Please Like and Subscribe to Eco Convos with Dan... and be sure to Comment and Share too!
