Just a quick post to let you know that I am away for three weeks and will resume work on Transmission Lines when I return. There are more dates, images and sites I need to add to the map plus I will delve more deeply into the content of the oral history with my father. It is my intention to continue working on the project for the duration of the Freestyle Books exhibition, to draw out a major point of difference of the web as a publishing environment.
In the meantime, please make sure you go to see the exhibition Freestyle Books at the State Library of Queensland, opening 27 June.
Transmission Lines 1955–1974 is a project by Linda Carroli. It documents my father’s working life as a rigger and linesman with the Electric Power Transmission and its Italian parent company. He kept a photographic record of his working life and the photographs featured in this map are his personal photographs from Australia and Italy in the period 1955 to 1974. He commenced work in Italy in 1954 and remained working with EPT until 1975.
