Abstract

In setting 'resilience' as the theme for ADSA’s 2016 conference, we were conscious of the challenges facing both the entertainment industry and the higher education sector in Australia at the moment, but throughout the region more broadly. We were also aware of the parallels with two other recent ADSA conferences. Namely, the 2014 conference hosted
by the Victoria University of Wellington New Zealand with the theme of 'Restoring Balance' and the 2012 conference hosted by Queensland University of Technology with theme
'Compass Points', especially the words of the editors in their introduction to that conference’s proceedings:
'We think the ADSA community too is characterised by the strength, resilience and determination sometimes needed to push through the rough patches to continue to create and report on some of the most meaningful elements of our local, national and international cultural landscapes.'
