#tdc4762 #ds106 Australia Day
26th January is Australia Day. Make some art to celebrate this day - maybe you might remix the flag in DS106 fashion or make a gif from the film of the same name. "The Founding of Australia. By Capt. Arthur Phillip R.N. Sydney Cove, Jan. 26th 1788", painted 1939, oil by Algernon Talmage R.A., State Library of New SOuth Wales, [http://archival.sl.nsw.gov.au/Details/archive/110314617 ML 1222] Tweet your response to @tdc and be sure to include the hashtag #tdc4762@creating #tdc4762 #ds106 #DailyCreate
Since I know very little of Australia Day, I spent some time, learning a bit. Here are some of the names of this day that have been used over time, reflecting the tension of history:
Australia Day
Anniversary Day
Regatta Day
Queensland Day
Foundation Day
Day of Mourning
Invasion Day
Survival Day
