Barely Emerging

We hope you are hungry, because we are dishing up some Two-Minute Googles!

Drawing on years of poor time management at university, we use our powers of last-minute research to bring you a discussion on a topic we have just looked up.

This episode we look at titles. Did you know that a lot of really famous artworks weren't actually titled by the artist? We didn't.

We also chat about some of our favourite uses of titles that have added meaning to an artwork.

Articles referenced:

Ruth Yeazell's article on art titles

Laura Mulvey's analysis of Cindy Sherman's Untitled Film Stills

NY Times article on Jens Haaning

Artists:

Workforce Australia announced that certain ‘creative activities’ now count towards JobSeeker Mutual Obligations. Which is great news. Sort of. 

In this episode we cover a brief history of the unemployment benefit in Australia and how those with intermittent or unstable employment (like creative freelancers) have often struggled to find support in this system.  

We also take a look at what these new ‘creative activities’ are, and what this means for artists now. 

Mainly we have a bit of a rant about how these new activities are a bit flawed and don’t relate to the vast majority of artists out there.

But you know, baby steps.
