Description

1986 A G M Michell Address of the College of Mechanical Engineers, Institution of Engineers Australia.

Abstract

I wish to expand on a theme which has emerged in one form or another in each and every Michell award address - that of the difference in the scales of time and cost between invention, which is the begetting, gestation and birth of an idea, and innovation, which is the long hard road one must travel to bring the idea through adolescence to commercial maturity.

"... the rengitj, as a visible mark or imprint on the land, is characterised as a place of origin, the repository of all names, as well as a kind of mapped visual expression of the connection between people and places which is to be carried out in the temporal sequence of the journey."
