What Can Australian Message Sticks Teach Us About Literacy?
Manage episode 402088632 series 2421469
Ingrid Piller speaks with Piers Kelly about a fascinating form of visual communication, Australian message sticks.
What does a message stick look like? What is its purpose, and how has the use of message sticks changed over time from the precolonial period via the late 19th/early 20th century and into the present? Why do we know so little about message sticks, and how has colonialism shaped our knowledge about message sticks? How did message sticks fit into the multilingual communication ecology of precolonial Australia? And, of course, the million-dollar question: are message sticks a form of writing?
