Art and Wellbeing in Rural OZ: February 2009
http://artandwellbeinginruraloz.blogspot.com/2009_02_01_archive.html
Art and Wellbeing in Rural OZ. Wednesday, February 4, 2009. I’ve been toying with the idea of exploring the phenomena of rural residents who attend arts events, and other activities in their town, not because they think they will enjoy it, but out of a sense of obligation that if they don’t go, their town will miss out next time. Sounds like a great idea for a paper, but I’ve been having trouble trying to get some references together – maybe there just isn’t any out there? Please someone, prove me wrong!

Art and Wellbeing in Rural OZ: March 2010
http://artandwellbeinginruraloz.blogspot.com/2010_03_01_archive.html
Art and Wellbeing in Rural OZ. Tuesday, March 2, 2010. The arts and mental health. The arts are good for your mental health. So how do you maintain good mental health? Well, the best answer is that it is a complex task and requires work across individual, community, organisational and societal levels. This is why there is an increasing interest in community, cultural, and yes, you guessed it, arts participation on mental health and wellbeing. That it provides opportunities for self-reflection and a means...

Art and Wellbeing in Rural OZ: April 2009
http://artandwellbeinginruraloz.blogspot.com/2009_04_01_archive.html
Art and Wellbeing in Rural OZ. Wednesday, April 15, 2009. I realise I am at risk of stating the obvious, but the experience of Indigenous Australians is very different, and quite far removed from the experience of non-indigenous Australians. For Indigenous Australians, the threat IS the reality, when compared to their non-indigenous neighbours. I won't bore you with statistics, as these are the obvious, quantifiable signs of inequity. So I'm not here to argue that Indigenous Australians are disad...I spo...

Art and Wellbeing in Rural OZ: November 2009
http://artandwellbeinginruraloz.blogspot.com/2009_11_01_archive.html
Art and Wellbeing in Rural OZ. Monday, November 30, 2009. I recently presented a paper at the 2009 State of Australian Cities (SOAC) Conference in Perth, Western Australia. The presentation was focusing on the quantitative component of my research. The data is still fairly raw at this stage and warrants further analysis. However I thought I'd provide a few statistics for you to ponder upon. All of the sample (n=948) engagaed in the arts by listening, watching, or reading it in the media or on the interne...

Art and Wellbeing in Rural OZ: July 2009
http://artandwellbeinginruraloz.blogspot.com/2009_07_01_archive.html
Art and Wellbeing in Rural OZ. Monday, July 13, 2009. I don't think anyone born in Australia can quite grasp how big and comparatively empty our continent is compared to the rest of the world. More so for those of us born in Western Australia (WA) which is again less fertile, more isolated and less populated than the east coast of Australia. Less people, bigger spaces, fewer icons. Yet also greater diversity and freedom to create and invent our own traditions. Not binded by the past, not living i...For m...
