So proud of the students in my new topic Digital Pasts: Applied 3D Capture and Reconstruction of Ancient Worlds. The class really stepped up, in most cases without any prior experience in 3D, and produced amazing work. handbook.flinders.edu.au/topics/2026/...

The TV coverage of our recent work with the Murujuga Aboriginal Corporation. I'm really happy with it, although it does incorrectly state that I led the research since 2019, when it was @Jon_Benjamin and the DHSC team (deephistoryofseacountry.com) youtu.be/Ags54zpnG6A?...
Their Old People sang of a place lost beneath the waves. Now itβs found.
Another fantastic achievement of the Murujuga Aboriginal Corporation collaborating with our Deep History of Sea Country project.
Congratulations @johnkmccarthy.bsky.social for leading this.
