Mapping Australian Homemade, Amateur & Do-it-Yourself Cultural Economies.

该项目旨在填补澳大利亚政府国家文化政策中的一个重大空白，以“复兴”文化部门。该项目预计将揭示被忽视的非专业、自制、业余和自己动手的创造力。计划的成果包括首次详细研究45%的澳大利亚人作为诗歌、音乐和美术等形式的制作人创造性地参与艺术活动的贡献，以及他们与专业文化和创意产业的关系。扩大新知识的参与性测绘方法应有助于更广泛地认识和理解澳大利亚日常创造力的价值，从而寻求影响民主决策。

This project aims to fill a significant gap in the Australian Government’s National Cultural Policy to ‘Revive’ the cultural sector. The project expects to reveal the ignored sector of non-professional, homemade, amateur and do-it-yourself creativity. Intended outcomes include the first detailed study of the contribution of the 45% of Australians who creatively participate in the arts as producers of forms including poetry, music and fine art and their relationship with the professional cultural and creative industries. Participatory mapping methods that expand new knowledge should provide public benefits in broader recognition and understanding of the value of everyday Australian creativity, seeking to impact democratic policymaking.
