In light of recent headlines and controversial choices, Dr Julie Macken is back this week to discuss public spaces and places and who gets to decide what gets screened as well as using public spaces as a form of community communication. Julie also reflects on the 2018 Everest Cup controversy and backlash whereby the Sydney Opera House was used as a gambling pitch. Our host goes on to speak about how flags and nation colours are powerful symbols and we should not be using them carelessly; leading her to propose the question "Is it ever appropriate to screen another nation's flag and colours on our landmarks?"
