ABOUT
This wiki is a place for you to add content related to various categorical aspects of the melbourne street/performance/spoken word scene.
I will take this information upload it to the read-only, multimedia public version of the site on a monthly basis.
Please email any audio or visual media that you wish to include to me at moc.liamg|itelefila#moc.liamg|itelefila. If it someone else's content, please make sure they've approved the use of it for the purposes of this documentation.
The small print is you keep copyright over everything you contribute. The webpage on which your contribution appears won't go online until you approve it, and it can be taken down again at your discretion. You will also get the credit.
Feel free to be as creative, candid etc as you want with your contributions.
If you’re not comfortable using the wiki, you can send contributions through to me via email – just make it clear which area your submission belongs to. Anything I receive by email I will upload there as well. The aim is to transfer content from the wiki to the official website on an ongoing basis.
CONTRIBUTION ADVICE
I’ve designated a number of key areas for submission to help structure the documentary. The main two areas are HISTORIES and HAPPENINGS – pretty much past and present. Each area will require annotation and illustration, with writing, photos as well as sound and video if you have any etc. The aim is more or less to create a significant, and centralized historical archive.
The small print is you keep copyright over everything you contribute. The webpage on which your contribution appears won't go online until you approve it, and can be taken down again at your discretion. You will also get the credit.
As well important factual information - names, dates & places - reflective and creative contributions are encouraged to provide further depth as well as a colourful, pictorial and poetic sense of personality and lived history.
Feel free to contribute to as many areas as you like. My aim is to display all the individual contributions alongside a general summary I (or anyone who wants to self-nominate) will produce. Again this will prosvide a perspectival sense of history, as directly experienced & remembered, on top of a more practical historical overview.
