Recirculating Nyungar-language songs to enhance social cohesion
No full textSong is of central importance in Aboriginal Australian cultures and Aboriginal communities engaging with language researchers often prioritise the documentation of songs. Even in areas where Aboriginal languages are endangered and traditional songs rarely performed, songs hold inherent potential to nourish culture, language and wellbeing. In the later stages of a study of Nyungar music from the south-west of Western Australia, the author presented a group of relevant senior Nyungar people with a fragmentary but rich collection of archival songs in the endangered Nyungar language and asked what should be done next. Summing up sentiments of the whole group, Russell Nelly said ‘Well, we got to have all of ‘em [Nyungar people] singing these songs!’ While the repatriating archival song material to Indigenous communities is a common research practice, there is little research on how to effectively use archives to encourage the performance and vitality of Indigenous song in urban/rural contexts where Indigenous language and traditional music are critically endangered.
Many of Australia’s endangered Aboriginal languages could have a better chance of surviving in song, as has been the case with languages no longer spoken but still sung in the Northern Territory. Learning, sharing and performing songs are achievable short-term goals for endangered language communities and the participatory, performative nature of music provides opportunities to enhance social cohesion and share distinct Indigenous cultural identities among Indigenous groups and with the general public. As younger Nyungar people are increasingly motivated to reclaim cultural heritage it is critical that this commence while the oldest generation of Nyungar people familiar with Nyungar language and song are still able to participate in urgent efforts to rectify the intergenerational transmission of song and language. Current research on the recirculation of Nyungar-language songs serves to highlight the proven benefits to social and personal wellbeing emanating from strong attachment to Indigenous cultural traditions. It also expands existing understandings of how song and language contribute to Indigenous wellbeing and social cohesion in a uniquely large, dispersed and urban/rural Indigenous context

Optimisation of assessment of maximal rate of heart rate increase for tracking training-induced changes in endurance exercise performance
No full textThe maximal rate of heart rate (HR) increase (rHRI), a marker of HR acceleration during transition from rest to submaximal exercise, correlates with exercise performance. In this cohort study, whether rHRI tracked performance better when evaluated over shorter time-periods which include a greater proportion of HR acceleration and less steady-state HR was evaluated. rHRI and five-km treadmill running time-trial performance (5TTT) were assessed in 15 runners following one week of light training (LT), two weeks of heavy training (HT) and 10-day taper (T). rHRI was the first derivative maximum of a sigmoidal curve fit to one, two, three and four minutes of R-R data during transition from rest to running at 8 km/h (rHRI8 km/h), 10.5 km/h, 13 km/h and transition from 8 to 13 km/h (rHRI8-13km/h). 5TTT time increased from LT to HT (effect size [ES] 1.0, p < 0.001) then decreased from HT to T (ES -1.7, p < 0.001). 5TTT time was inversely related to rHRI8 km/h assessed over two (B = -5.54, p = 0.04) three (B = -5.34, p = 0.04) and four (B = -5.37, p = 0.04) minutes, and rHRI8-13km/h over one (B = -11.62, p = 0.006) and three (B = -11.44, p = 0.03) minutes. 5TTT correlated most consistently with rHRI8 km/h. rHRI8 km/h assessed over two to four minutes may be suitable for evaluating athlete responses to training.Maximillian J.

Christine’s and Walter’s “Eternal Now”. About Love and Transcendence in Clint Eastwood’s Changelling
No full textText is an analysis of Clint Eastwood movie Changelling (2008). The Author describes connection between characters (mother and son) as an epifanic experience. She puts the story in context of director’s output, in which the theme of love reaching transcendent dimension often occurs. Eastwood depicts ordinary experience of life in common like an Arcadian reality and he sees sacral quality in daily rituals. The Author collides religious aspects in his works with the reflection about world’s desacralization, which returns in his movies and also his openly secular worldview.Tekst stanowi analizę filmu Clinta Eastwooda Oszukana (2008), w której autorka opisuje więź bohaterów – matki i syna – w kategoriach doświadczenia epifanicznego. Opowieść umieszczona zostaje w kontekście twórczości reżysera, przez którą przewija się motyw miłości osiągającej wymiar transcendentny. Powszednie doświadczenie wspólnego życia Eastwood przedstawia na wzór rzeczywistości arkadyjskiej, w rytuałach codzienności upatrując walor sakralny. Religijny aspekt w twórczości reżysera autorka zderza z powracającą u niego refleksją na temat desakralizacji świata i otwarcie laickim światopoglądem twórcy
