Information management: an Australian photomontage

Abstract

One of Australia's publishing success stories of 1982 was the coffee‐table book, A day in the life of Australia. One hundred photographers were sent to different locations throughout Australia. Their assignment: Take pictures. The result is a national album showing people in country towns, capital cities, isolated cattle stations, doing what they would normally be doing at different times of the day. The photographs selected by the editors for publication could not hope to provide an exhaustive overview of Australia and Australians; nonetheless, those who browse through the pages get the feeling they've shared a significant part of Australian life.
