Over the last couple of years, I worked with a community of town elders in Clunes, Victoria, to create a series of short films that interacted with the change work they were doing. Sightlines have published a piece exploring aspects of my experience of 'working with' participants. lnkd.in/g9-MH8D2

Sad to hear about John Martinkus’s death. I remember being kicked out of Jimmy Watsons with him and a few other doco makers. It’s a hard life for those covering our wars.
Vale John Martinkus (1969–2025)
Journalist & author who gave voice to conflicts too often ignored — Aceh, East Timor, #WestPapua, Iraq.
His work, from Quarterly Essay to books, brought these struggles to the wider public.
