Find Ben Walter's remote. Sit down with Gerald Murnane. Greet new life with Leni Shilton. Reimagine George Williams's university. Impose a new inconvenience on Ella Mittas. Throw down Nicholas Pickard's gauntlet. Ask Rose Harriman's powerful question. Our reading begins with Joe Geia's Carumba Institute Meanjin Oration: Uncle shows us that while culture evolves across millennia, it's how we respect it today that counts - because it's artists who keep the voice alive.
