Ethnographic collections, as material repositories of historical relationships, are powerful bodies of intercultural knowledge and exchange. Indigenous people have been active and influential in the building of these collections and continue today to be critical to the ongoing interpretation and engagement of such repositories. When faced with the tangled, overgrowth of values accumulated around collected objects over time, regenerative processes can offer new life. By applying a metaphorical ‘cool burn’ it is hoped that space can be created where new shoots of knowledge can emerge. This research takes the form of a digital article twinned with an exegetical reflection to extend the notion of Indigenous engagement and so consider some of the regenerative potentials of collection research when Indigenous philosophies and concepts drive research enquiry and more importantly, frame outcomes.

人种学藏品作为历史关系的物质宝库,是跨文化知识和交流的强大机构。原住民在这些藏品的建设过程中一直发挥着积极的影响,今天,他们对于这些藏品的持续解释和参与仍然至关重要。面对随着时间的推移在收藏品周围积累起来的纠缠不清、杂乱无章的价值观,再生过程可以提供新的生命。我们希望通过隐喻性的 "冷却燃烧",能够创造出新的知识空间。本研究以数字文章的形式,结合训诂反思,扩展了土著参与的概念,从而考虑了当土著哲学和概念推动研究调查,更重要的是,影响研究结果时,收藏研究的一些再生潜力。

Filming jilba: Sensing beyond the exclusionary fictions of climate science 拍摄吉尔巴:超越气候科学排他性虚构的感知

Citt Williams, Jarramali Kulka

‘Filming jilba’ makes up part of a larger practice-based research project focusing on the body as a site of climate sensitivity and perception. Investigated in collaboration with Bama colleague, Jarramali Kulka (a Kuku Yalanji-Nyungkal man from Australia's tropical Far North Queensland), and his custodial practice jilba (pronounced jil-ba), the article describes the embryotic growth of a performative practice-based methodology that leads with intimate sensing—a generative counter position to remote sensing—and grows it phenomenologically through the field work of a documentary media practice. In attempting to speak across epistemic divides, the project process addresses the exclusionary fictions that conventional climate sensing performs by attuning to ‘a world that already has its own stories’.

拍摄吉尔巴 "是以实践为基础的大型研究项目的一部分,该项目重点关注作为气候敏感性和感知场所的身体。文章与巴马的同事贾拉玛利-库尔卡(来自澳大利亚热带昆士兰极北地区的库库-雅兰吉-宁卡尔人)及其监护实践 "jilba"(读作 "jil-ba")合作进行调查,描述了一种基于实践的表演性方法论的萌芽成长过程,这种方法论以亲密感知为先导--一种与遥感相对立的生成性立场--并通过纪录片媒体实践的实地工作从现象学角度加以发展。在试图跨越认识论鸿沟的过程中,项目进程通过适应 "一个已经有了自己故事的世界",解决了传统气候传感的排斥性虚构问题。

‘Hearing Heat: An Anthropocene acoustemology’ is an intermedia composition that meditates on the climate of history, listening to histories of listening from the Papua New Guinea rainforest to nuclear Japan to ancient and contemporary Greece. It proceeds through continual recombinations of visual and sonic media, with photographs, graphics, animation, and cinema dialoguing with ethnographic field recording of Indigenous song, ambient environmental sound, cinema soundtracks, electroacoustic and radio composition, and vocally performed text.

听热:人类世音响系统学 "是一个跨媒体作品,它沉思历史的气候,聆听从巴布亚新几内亚热带雨林到日本核电再到古希腊和当代希腊的聆听历史。它通过视觉和声音媒体的不断重组,将照片、图形、动画和电影与土著歌曲的人种学实地录音、环境音效、电影原声带、电声和无线电作品以及声乐文本进行对话。

我们为'认识调适'策展所做的贡献,目标是通过特刊网络数字平台的视觉性和移动性,向读者-观众传达克洛普克鲁仪式的触觉、社会和美学方面。我们与詹妮弗-德格(Jennifer Deger)、维多利亚-巴斯金-科菲(Victoria Baskin Coffey)和凯莱布-金斯顿(Caleb Kingston)在多次 "放大"(Zoom)会议上构思了这篇文章的数字元素,思考如何通过复制克鲁普克鲁族仪式中以触摸为基础的工艺知识、处置和血统传承,来活跃互联网这种以滚动和触摸屏为基础的相对被动的触摸媒介。我们决定使用曼谷波昌艺术学院泰国绘画系的 khrop khru 仪式残留物作为动画视觉指南,当读者的手指滚动浏览我们作品的各个部分时,可以增强他们的阅读体验。在波昌艺术学院每年举行的 khrop khru 仪式中,泰国绘画系的新生在老师的指导下,轮流用铅笔描画 Phra Sayamphuwanat 神的面部轮廓。这些铅笔线条在仪式过程中慢慢积累,最终形成数十条深银色的线条,覆盖了神的面部形象。这些线条同时遮蔽和照亮了手稿页面上的图像,在光线的照射下更显质感和光泽。我们发现这个图像不仅具有视觉冲击力,而且是对 khrop khru 社会的一种迷人的物质提炼,因此我们希望在数字文章中复制整个仪式过程中铅笔线条的缓慢累积。我们请求波昌大学泰国绘画系的教授允许我们使用 Phra Sayamphuwanat 的脸部,因为它在 khrop khru 过程中被闪闪发光的铅笔线条反复描绘。他们很高兴地同意了,并从他们的仪式手稿中发来了一些萨雅普瓦纳大师的图像,以确保我们有高质量的文件可供使用。人种学研究通常是从田野到办公室。田野笔记、记忆、照片和文字资料都是在现场收集的,然后在学者的办公桌或屏幕上进行整理、归纳和分析。艺术家兼设计师阿米莉亚-托尔克(Amelia Toelke)在 Adobe Photoshop 中清理了仪式手稿中的 Phra Sayamphuwanat 形象,以便将其转移到丝网上进行印刷。然后,她制作了丝网,并在纽约罗森代尔的妇女工作室花了一天时间制作大幅丝网版画。安东尼-洛文海姆-欧文(Anthony Lovenheim Irwin)作为工作室助理加入了托尔克的版画工作室,他们在那里制作了两套不同的版画--第一套是在米白色纸张上用深灰色墨水印制的,另一套是在黑色纸张上用黄色墨水印制的,试图模仿浦项克鲁仪式中使用的不同仪式手稿的外观。Irwin 通过社交媒体向浦昌大学的教授们发送了丝网印刷的照片。"印刷完成后,我们必须复制图像上的铅笔线条,并以数字方式捕捉每一层,以便在网络上发布。为此,我们与纽约菲尔蒙特 Purpose Makerspace 的摄影师兼电影制作人希斯-艾弗森(Heath Iverson)进行了合作。随后,Toelke、Iverson 和 Irwin 花了一整天的时间,按照波昌大师指定的顺序仔细描摹和回溯 Phra Sayamphuwanat 版画的面部:面部轮廓、眼睛、鼻子、嘴巴,最后是 unalom--完美存在的标志--位于眼睛之间和上方以及神灵的灵盖上。我们在不同的版画上使用了不同粗细的铅笔,并对每张描摹图逐一拍照,以便日后将它们合成动画,用于数字文章。此时,数字视觉元素的具体美感尚未确定,因此我们制作了四套不同的描图。一天下来,我们拍了数百张照片,手都快抽筋了。最终,在与科菲和金斯顿商讨了什么最适合在线平台后,我们确定了与仪式中使用的图片和铅笔线条最相似的图片和铅笔线条--黑色纸张,黄色墨水,上面覆盖着 108 幅铅笔描图。

REACH: Research as regeneration REACH:研究即再生

Jennifer Deger, Victoria Baskin Coffey

The galvanising aim in curating ‘Epistemic attunements’ has been to reach beyond the infrastructural imaginaries of the corporate publishing regimes that so brutally standardise the form, production, and distribution of research. Yet rather than being wholly enamoured with the pursuit of new publics, or with the kind of reach and influence that our bespoke digital platform affords, we take the idea of ‘reach’ in a different direction. In short, what we propose here is that reaching beyond anthropology offers a way to return the discipline to its core commitments. REACH explores what happens when anthropology and its interlocutors come together to cultivate shared grounds of epistemic care and concerns. It asks, what happens when multiple histories show up in the process? It proposes that therein lies the grounds for a regenerative anthropology.

策划 "认识调适 "的激励目标是超越企业出版制度的基础设施想象,这些制度对研究的形式、生产和传播进行了粗暴的标准化。然而,我们并不完全迷恋于对新公众的追求,也不完全迷恋于我们定制的数字平台所带来的覆盖面和影响力,而是将 "覆盖面 "的概念引向了另一个方向。简而言之,我们在这里提出的是,超越人类学为人类学回归其核心承诺提供了一条途径。REACH探索的是,当人类学与其对话者走到一起,培养共同的认识论关怀和关注时,会发生什么。它问道:当多重历史出现在这一过程中时,会发生什么?它提出,这就是再生人类学的基础。

Country, cattle and cooperation: On the potential of Kila in Warmun, Western Australia
IF 0.5 3区 社会学 Q3 ANTHROPOLOGY Pub Date : 2024-09-10 DOI: 10.1111/taja.12511
Catherine Massola

Gija people in the East Kimberley community of Warmun (Western Australia) negotiate their engagement with pastoralism with varying degrees of primacy. Through ethnography and oral histories, I explore how Gija people manage pastoralism and its effects through acts of accommodation, adoption, refusal and innovation. I begin by outlining the development of the colonial pastoral industry in Western Australia, state and federal legislation that withheld and underpaid wages to Aboriginal pastoral workers and cattle-killing practices and protective measures. I use ‘Kila’, the bovine species killed for local consumption, as an entry point to explore intercultural relations and Gija relative autonomy within this context. Analysing Kila etymologically and through an ethnographic case study involving its procurement, dissection, and distribution, I find that cooperation is implemented to enable the Kila event. Kila emerges as both a nexus for intercultural mutuality and as a facilitator of distinct opportunities for Gija social and cultural maintenance and recreation.

<p>Bruno Latour, a prolific philosopher, anthropologist, sociologist, and science and technology studies scholar, entered the debate on the global ecological crisis with the publication of <i>The Politics of Nature</i> (Harvard University Press, <span>2004</span>). He became a fellow at the ecomodernist Breakthrough Institute, penning a frequently cited 2011 article in its journal calling for humanity to love its technological monsters like we love our children instead of rejecting them. He called for management of the environment rather than seeking to keep it in a pristine state. In his Distinguished Lecture at the American Anthropological Association annual meeting in December 2014, he asserted that geologists had presented anthropologists with a gift by positioning the <i>anthropos</i> centre stage in the guise of the Anthropocene as the main geological force, thus superseding the Holocene.
