Program
Panel,
10.30am - 11.20am | Sunday 15 July
Join Nina and Jane for a gloves-off discussion on where next for the #metoo campaign. Has anything really changed? Are women’s voices really being heard? Are the media still prioritising men’s voices?
Solo event,
10.30am - 11.20am | Sunday 15 July
Language revival is right, beautiful, and beneficial. Ghil’ad proposes Native Tongue Title, compensation (for linguistic activities) for peoples whose mother tongue was subject to linguicide (language killing), making Indigenous tongues the official languages of their region, and erecting multi-lingual official signs, changing the lanGscape (linguistic landscape).
Workshop,
11.10am - 11.30am | Sunday 15 July
Dan’s mission is simple: To dare himself, and those he works with, to think differently and to use a humanistic approach towards growth in business, education and life. This performance talk, A Fine Balance, embodies the stages of research while presenting an inquiry into the balance of risk in creativity.
Book Launch,
11:30am | Sunday 15 July
The time is ripe to find a better way to value our culture – by finding a better way to talk about it. This book intervenes in an important debate about the public value of culture that has become stranded between the hard heads (where the arts are just another industry) and the soft hearts (for whom they are too precious to bear dispassionate analysis).
Panel,
11.30am - 12.20pm | Sunday 15 July
How do images of ageing make us feel about ourselves and others? Are we telling our own narrative well – through television, film, advertising, fashion – or are we failing? Or are we simply ignoring it altogether?
In conversation,
11.30am - 12.20pm | Sunday 15 July
The corporate responsibility to turn a profit often clashes with a social or environmental need to preserve a public good. Enter politics. Enter regulation. Enter conflict. Are there better ways of aligning these warring interests before the main topic of litigation becomes who should pay for the sea-walls required by global warming?
