Where Am I?
This chapter encounters TERROR NULLIUS: A Political Revenge Fable In Three Acts as a passionately personal and personally passionate love letter of a film. She is moved by her own particular lived experience, her own memory and her own relation to Australia's cultural imaginary and history. And so, she writes the chapter as a situated viewer, responding to scenes that stand out powerfully in her memory – sometimes distressing, sometimes exuberant – scenes whose passion and affect inevitably reverberate through her writing. De‐composing and re‐composing white Australia's cultural history, TERROR NULLIUS shifts between modes of remembering, feeling, and mediating. Through its play with memory, affect, and mediation, this remix film weaves its political revenge fable. In‐between the bookending moments, there unfolds TERROR NULLIUS's powerful, disturbing, exhilarating – and at times perplexing – story from white Australian cultural mythology.

Interactive Journeys: Making Room to Move in the Cultural Territories of Interactivity
This paper explores the aesthetics and politics of popular cultural computer imagery in games, television and film. The author aims to map a ground for criticism of computer graphics and interactive works--by excavating cultural meanings underlying the dominant aesthetics in these images and asking what they do for their producers and users. Do the metallic bodies armor the user/producer for the fear (delight) of a machine world, producing fear (delight) in the process? Is morphing a technique to evade, or explore, the identity crisis precipitated by awareness of cultural difference? What desires produce and are produced by the gravity-less perspective and movement of three-dimensional animation? The author's theoretical project explores how popular cultural computer aesthetics and techniques express and (re)produce subjectivity in post-modern culture. These ideas are examined through everyday aesthetic experiences, representational practices and techniques, and the accompanying changes in perception.

The Trouble with the Weather
From art and literature to popular culture, the weather has painted the background, been a signal of the emotional climate or a portent of unsettling action to come. Using humour and the absurd, displays of excess, sensual environments, intense imagination and personal and emotional responses, the artists offer us new ways to engage with this politically overloaded and emotionally charged subject.
