Hello members, 

How are you planning to show you legacy with images? We look forward to seeing your 6 minutes and 40 seconds visual stories! Please do not hesitate to contact us if you require any assistance along the way or if you are struggling to meet the deadline. You can also watch our artist is residence’s video on the PechaKucha website (see below). This video along with your video contributions will be later added into Figshare to protect your input. Lodging items through Figshare allows you to have ownership rights over your items. It provides every artefact, including your short videos (7min40sec), with a digital object identifier (DOI) for a unique citation.

More information about your creative contributions 
When developing the videos, please consider the narratives and the story you wish to tell through your research in response to the four imperatives: 

• Decolonisation 
• Cultural resilience 
• Inclusion, agency, and wellbeing 
• The Post-digital age 

You can focus on individual or in addition, collaborative, integrated research as long as -it responds to the four imperatives and addresses the existing connections and linkages. The output will live on beyond this research project and will be easily accessible into the future.  
Please share with us your thoughts, suggestions, and feedback. 
  
Update on progress 
The Omeka virtual gallery space is currently being built to house our creative outputs and research data for this project. Exciting developments include visuals of the gallery spaces, a world map where we can situate the research origins of all participants and interactive exhibits.
