Cumulus 38º South: Proceedings of the Cumulus Conference, 'Hemispheric Shifts Across Learning, Teaching and Research', Swinburne University of Technology and RMIT University, Melbourne, Australia, 12-14 November 2009 / Liam Fennessy, Russell Kerr, Gavin Melles, Christine Thong and Emily Wright (eds.)

Cumulus 38° South was the first Cumulus Conference to be held in Australia, and ran from 12-14 November 2009. Cumulus, the International Association of Universities and Colleges of Art, Design and Media represents more than 140 institutions worldwide. It was designed to be a global forum where the northern and southern hemispheres could share their cultural expression of design and related media across education, industry and research. It was also an opportunity to build the Cumulus network across Asia, Australia and within Victoria. Cumulus 38° South invited educators, practitioners and researchers to join a cross-disciplinary conversation, 'How can art, design and media transcend boundaries, shift thinking and evolve to meet the needs of our future?'
