AstridAstrid is a 21 year old from Mudgee, studying
journalism/media arts at UTS. She moved to the city a
few years ago, and uses sites like Facebook to share
photos and to keep in touch with family and friends
from back home. During semester she doesn't get many
chances to go home, but will go back for long periods of
time during her holidays.
She lives in a share house with 2 other students - there's
no TV in the house, but they all have laptops. She and
her friends in Sydney often meet between classes and
after school, usually visiting the cafe Astrid works at.
They talk a lot about their uni work and other personal
matters, but the topics of travel and career often come
up. Astrid has mentioned her plans to study abroad for
a semester next year - an idea her friends are
encouraging.
After uni, she has her sights firmly set on a career in the
media, and is trying to build a solid portfolio and gain
some relevant experience before she finishes her
studies. She enjoys receiving constructive feedback,
although she's always a little scared before showing her
work to others.

Ruth is a keen listener of both ABC Local and Radio
National, where she regularly catches shows like Hindsight,
By Design, Rearvision and The Book Show. She has been
married for 30 years, and has a son in his late twenties
who works in IT - something she finds useful when she’s
having computer troubles.
Through her work at the language school she has
encountered many different cultures. An influx of Nigerian
students stirred a curiosity in Ruth, which culminated
in her visiting Nigeria with students in 2008 - her first
international trip. She was amazed by what she saw, and
took as many photos as she could.
Encouraged by her family and friend’s reactions, Ruth
began using her photos to tell stories and educate the
wider community about Nigerian culture. She’s looking
forward to learning more technical and story-telling skills
to encourage understanding and acceptance of these new
community members.
“Pool is the place for me
to tell a story”
“Pool is a time capsule for
future generations”
Sam moved to Darwin from Greece when he was 4
years old. Soon after arriving his family witnessed Cyclone
Tracy, an event that left a lasting impression on him. For
his 10th birthday he was given a tape recorder, and in the
years after he recorded the recollections of family and
friends about that infamous Christmas day.
Since then, he has amassed a collection of stories from
his personal life and the greater community. When an
idea strikes him, he has no hesitation in rallying groups
of people around a vision - his motivation and enthusiasm
are infectious.
Sam is now married with 2 young children. He hopes that
his collection of written and audio stories help them and
future generations understand more about him. He often
tells his kids: “Not sharing your stories is the most selfish
thing you can do”.
Mollie shares studio space with four friends who
also work in the film industry. She tends to work
autonomously, but collaborates with her studio-mates
when her workload increases.
She is a member of Screenhub, but typically gets work
from word-of-mouth recommendations. She works hard to
maintain her reputation as professional and reliable. She
has a keen interest in emerging trends in technology and
the media, and regularly scours the internet for new blogs
and works. She is a heavy user of RSS.
She doesn’t put work online as she often has limited rights
to the commercial work she’s done. She is hesitant to
publish other works as they are usually less polished, and
publishing these could effect her reputation.
“Pool is a place to see what’s
happening and who’s doing it”
“Pool is a place for me
to be discovered”
Astrid moved to the city a few years ago, and uses
sites like Facebook to share photos and to keep in touch
with family and friends from back home. She lives in a
share house with 2 other students - there’s no TV in the

She and her friends in Sydney often meet between classes
and after school, where they talk about uni work, travel
and their careers. Astrid has mentioned her plans to study
abroad for a semester next year - an idea her friends are

enjoys receiving constructive feedback, although she’s
always a little apprehensive before showing her work to
others.
“Pool is a place to enable
great relationships”
“Pool is a place for me
to tap creativity”
“Pool is a great place for my students
to engage with the real world”
“Pool is my community”
Alex has moved from junior positions to a producer at
the ABC over the last 20 years, and has gained recognition
for her work on various arts programs. Recently, she has
found herself thinking less about program features and
more about the strategic direction of Radio National.
Throughout her career as a writer and sound artist she has
accumulated many contacts and friendships in the mid-
career and emerging arts communities, and is respected
for challenging the status quo.
Her work brings her in contact with a range of different
organizations, and a significant part of her job is now
about fostering these relationships.
Penny has worked for the ABC for about 15 years,
and has a good reputation both domestically and
internationally. She is married to a painter who works
from their home in Leichardt, and has 2 high school aged
children.
Penny’s job is to generate ideas for features, and to
follow through on the evolution and production of
these ideas into finished pieces. Penny will sometimes
interview people on the street, collaborate with external
organisations, or team up with other producers.
These days, the majority of her modest budget is spent in
studio production time, but she still makes the occasional
research trip. She generally works autonomously, and
often finds herself mentoring the various contributors
involved with her projects.
Ken had a well established net.art practice before
he started teaching. His students appreciate his
experience as a practioner, especially when he invites
current practioners to participate in seminars and class
assignments.
While he lives close to uni, he regularly spends time in
the country south of the city, often with peers working on
projects. Since he began teaching it’s hard to find enough
time to work on these projects.
He enjoys travel and occasionally works in Tokyo. When
overseas he will visit local institutions and lecture
on trends in media art. He often collaborates with his
international peers.
Lara is a community manager at Pool. She has a
background in media and volunteers at the Starlight
Foundation where she helps to organise fund raising
events.
In a typical day at the ABC she answers emails from Pool
members, posts to the Pool blog, moderates content and
keeps the community momentum going. She will also liase
with producers and stakeholders about upcoming projects.
She regularly gives talks to external interest groups, and
finds that people often ask her about getting involved.
She loves this part of her job because she feels like she’s
making a difference.
