An exploratory study of historical representations of love in an art gallery exhibition
Krause, Amanda E.
Davidson, Jane W.
Visitor responses to art exhibitions vary depending on visitor traits, the exhibition context, as well as the sensory engagement between visitor and exhibition. The present investigation explored visitors’ experiences of Love: Art of Emotions, a curated exhibition shown at the National Gallery of Victoria in 2017, which comprised a variety of artworks from the early modern period selected to address the broad theme of love. This article reports on a mixed-methods research project using a short survey and brief exit interviews with visitors to consider how the visitor experience was characterized, the factors that influenced this experience, and how the exhibition content was perceived, with particular focus on the emotional content portrayed in the exhibition’s collection of artworks. Results of quantitative analyses indicate that familiarity with artworks and their historical period combine with motivations for attending the exhibition (such as being motivated by the exhibition’s theme) and have a clear positive influence on one’s emotional experience of the exhibition overall. The results of thematic analyses pertaining to the interview responses provide evidence that visitors processed both the emotional and historical content in the exhibition—indicative of having contemplative experiences and often processing the exhibition content in relation to themselves. These findings have implications for designing future exhibitions and contribute to our broader understanding of how modern-day audiences perceive and respond to historical art exhibitions and the work they comprise.

Hans Peter Luhn and the birth of the hashing algorithm
Stevens, Hallam
November 1958, at a six-day international conference devoted to scientific information, the inventor Hans Peter Luhn demonstrated a series of his electromechanical machines. They looked rather ordinary. Much like other computing devices of the day, they were boxy and utilitarian, designed to scoop and sort tall stacks of punch cards into slots and bins.

NOTES ON THE E-BOOKLET VERSION TWO
Between 2016- 2019, a multidisciplinary team of researchers1 from Australia and Papua New Guinea worked in collaboration with local communities to document the cultural values of the Nakanai Mountains and their inextricable link to the spectacular natural landscape. This research aims to contribute to a standalone nomination to the UNESCCO Tentative World Heritage List of the Nakanai Karst Area (NKA) and elevate its recognition as a cultural landscape of outstanding significance. The research team included both anthropologists and archaeologists. Further anthropological and archaeological research is likely to yield further evidence of the richly diverse cultural values of the area.
Between July 2018 - December 2019, researchers from James Cook University (JCU) in collaboration with postgraduate researchers from the University of Papua New Guinea (UPNG) were commissioned by the United Nations Development Programme2 in conjunction with the Conservation, Environment Protection Authority to generate awareness of protected area planning processes and to facilitate the gazettal of four Community Protected Areas around Jacquinot Bay and Central Inland Pomio. These protected area processes are ongoing.

Chronology of natural selection in Oceanian genomes

As human populations left Asia to first settle in Oceania around 50,000 years ago, they entered a territory ecologically separated from the Old World for millions of years. We analyzed genomic data of 239 modern Oceanian individuals to detect and date signals of selection specific to this region. Combining both relative and absolute dating approaches, we identified a strong selection pattern between 52,000 and 54,000 years ago in the genomes of descendants of the first settlers of Sahul. This strikingly corresponds to the dates of initial settlement as inferred from archaeological evidence. Loci under selection during this period, some showing enrichment in Denisovan ancestry, overlap genes involved in the immune response and diet, especially based on plants. Pathogens and natural resources, especially from endemic plants, therefore appear to have acted as strong selective pressures on the genomes of the first settlers of Sahul.

First insight into oral microbiome diversity in Papua New Guineans reveals a specific regional signature

The oral microbiota is a highly complex and diversified part of the human microbiome. Being located at the interface between the human body and the exterior environment, this microbiota can deepen our understanding of the environmental impacts on the global status of human health. This research topic has been well addressed in Westernized populations, but these populations only represent a fraction of human diversity. Papua New Guinea hosts very diverse environments and one of the most unique human biological diversities worldwide. In this study we performed the first known characterization of the oral microbiome in 85 Papua New Guinean individuals living in different environments, using a qualitative and quantitative approach. We found a significant geographical structure of the Papua New Guineans oral microbiome, especially in the groups most isolated from urban spaces. In comparison to other global populations, two bacterial genera related to iron absorption were significantly more abundant in Papua New Guineans and Aboriginal Australians, which suggests a shared oral microbiome signature. Further studies will be needed to confirm and explore this possible regional-specific oral microbiome profile.

Developing Climate Risk Assessments for World Heritage: the Climate Vulnerability Index
Jones, Rebecca H.

Day, Jon C.
Heron, Scott F.
Climate change is recognised by ICOMOS and the IUCN as the fastest growing threat to World Heritage (WH) properties. The Climate Vulnerability Index (CVI) was first piloted at the Natural WH property of Shark Bay, Western Australia, in 2018; the first application to a Cultural WH property took place in April 2019 at the Heart of Neolithic Orkney in Scotland. This article outlines the results of the Orkney workshop together with one for Edinburgh conducted in May-June 2021 and looks at the benefits of the CVI assessment process.

"I'm not greedy but I like a lot": attitudes to consumption in an oversized teacup
Ramoutsaki, Helen
Human values and behaviour at both individual and societal levels can influence the success of goals for global sustainable development. This creative practice-embedded presentation addresses self-interested overconsumption in relatively affluent societies, such as Britain, the United States and Australia. Such excessive consumption challenges attempts to achieve balanced, equitable economies and sustainable lives within the more-than-human world. Kate Raworth’s alternative Doughnut Economics model makes explicit the overshoot into environmental degradation and the shortfall in relation to the twelve social priorities of the United Nations Sustainable Development Goals (2017). However, Schokkaert’s critique of the model acknowledges that while individuals can act altruistically, we cannot ignore the “self-interested free riders” and the state as “an instrument of the powerful and rich to exploit the poor” (2019, p. 130). The normalisation of exploitative excessive consumption is evident in material culture. The chance find of an oversized vintage teacup made in England, inscribed with the motto, “I’m not greedy but I like a lot”, led me into a creative and historical investigation of how the meme has been applied to corrupt councillors, over-taxing politicians, invading national leaders and to the enjoyment of home comforts in the form of a good cup of tea or cocoa. Taking the teacup and other oversized vessels with their accompanying slogans as materialised metaphors of excess consumption and unequal power relations demonstrates relative advantage, disadvantage and attitudes to the concept of greed in the late nineteenth and early twentieth centuries, compared and contrasted with contemporaneous attitudes. My grandmother alter-ego, MC Nannarchy, expresses her findings in her idiosyncratic spoken-word rapping style with a satirical message in her role as the Minister for the Economy and Gastronomy, delivered over her very capacious evening cup of cocoa.
