An indictment of how this country's politicians treat culture unless it comes in Anzac packaging. A better funding deal for the nation's cultural institutions including the National Gallery, Library, Museum, Archives, and Film and Sound Archive is urgent. smh.com.au/culture/art-and-d…

Lots of good ideas here, including this:
"We should provide more and longer funding periods for early career fellows (5-7 years). And we should be providing more funding, in general, for supporting people (and especially post-docs) in other programs...."
It’s an auspicious time for higher education in Australia. Reviews, a new accord, a tempering is the culture wars. Some thoughts from me about how we might reimagine our research system @Sydney_Uni @ArtSS_Sydney @JMIPublicPolicy thepolicymaker.jmi.org.au/au…

IASH director Peter Harrison speaks with @SamuelLoncar about trust in science and more
"Why we do place such stock in the technological mastery of the world that science provides? The answer to this is less obvious, and this where the history of science can be enlightening." —@uqpharri, Co-director of Marginalia's Meanings of Science Project themarginaliareview.com/scie…
