Societies and Songlines.

Thinking about Connected versus Oral Societies.

Walking my Forest Songline. One of favorite pictures for contemplation. Picture by John Rose.

Songline Conceptualisation.

Traditional Australian Songlines, 65,000 years of passing down cultural knowledge and identity. Diagram by John Rose. (Pictures Public Release).

Conceive songline as linked group learning experiences in context of tribal lived-in landscape.

Songlines are uniquely tied to context of tribal landscape, Changes to songlines synched with landscape.

Change occurs over geological timescales, Songlines still performed describing ancient geological events like flooding of Queensland’s first Great Barrier reef.

Oral Songline Parallels in Literate Society.

Aboriginal oral society literally “live” their songlines, one cannot separate tribe from songline and neither from their lived-in land.

I’m reduced to considering parallels in group based learning using associative memory techniques while overlooking cultural influences.

Our local modern community schools with face-to-face teaching, Playground meals, Group sports, Parental group support and involvement, Homework and community service.

Modern retreats as community experiences, Conducted at remote locations, Cutting participants from normal social interactions, Allowing focussed knowledge interactions emphasizing face-to-face explicit and tacit knowledge exchanges in group participations, Presentations and classes, Elder led discussions, Group meditations, Participant addresses demonstrating justified knowledge mastery.

Bark Paintings.

Kangaroo totemic ancestor — Bark painting — Kunwinjku. Provenance : Alligator River, Arnhem Land, Noni, Australia, c. 1915. By Unknown artist — Myrabella — Own work — 14 July 2011, Public Domain, https://commons.wikimedia.org/w/index.php?curid=34218314. This work is in the public domain in its country of origin and other countries and areas where the copyright term is the author’s life plus 70 years or fewer.

Bark paintings based on designs that identify tribe, Containing elements of Eternal Dreamtime, Traditional bark paintings intended for instructional and ceremonial purposes in support of songline performances.

Bark paintings experienced as art, Communicating tacit knowledge embedded in traditional shapes patterns and colors, Experienced under elder supervision.

Face-to-face guided tours of art gallery with extended group explanations, Supported by question and answer sessions could well be reasonable parallel to bark painting’s role in songlines.

Differences.

Differences defined by oral versus literate society, Differences compounded by rapid penetration of ubiquitous communications computer systems and electronic knowledge management and enhancement.

Connected societies with disruptive innovation rapidly becoming socially disconnected from local environments, Loosing community values, Breaking traditional boundaries and weakening family influences.

Void between oral and connected societies widening before our eyes, Especially with development of human-brain interfaces that will create unbridgeable gap, Who will survive?

Vulnerabilities

Oral cultures with unbreakable ties to lived-in environments vulnerable to social change and global warming.

Social change impedes access to traditional lands, Global warming with extreme weather causes rapid changes to traditional lands and wildlife, Irreversible weakening ties to land.

Conversely, Connected societies vulnerable to social change from population pressures, Rapid ill-understood technological changes, Power shortages and extreme weather events.

Another View of Songlines.

Songline contemplation. Stones as ideas, light as memory cues linking ideas in context of landscape represented by sand. Study by John Rose.

My poem is never ending story.

Blessed be.
