More DescriptionAn English to Auslan to English compilation of first sentences from unfinished stories. The sentences were contributed by visitors to Lismore Regional Gallery in April-June 2021 as part of Make or Break's 'Department of Non-Human Resources' project. Each sentence has passed through a creative translation process: Step 1: The 'first sentence' was recorded in EnglishStep 2: The English sentence was translated into an Auslan videoStep 3: The Auslan video was translated back into English (without access to the original 'first sentence')Why? The authors want you to get curious about Deaf culture and the importance of accessibility. We can learn a lot about different experiences of the world through the conceptual and linguistic differences between languages. We also want to share the theatre and poetry of Auslan an image-based language with no written equivalent.
