Acknowledgement of traditional owners

We acknowledge the Traditional Custodians of this land and water, this place populated by people, animals, plants and spirits. We acknowledge the Whadjuk people of the Noongar Nation, who are the first caretakers of this place, and whose knowledges we hold in high esteem.
We acknowledge how the Noongar history of this place reflects a culture that is compelled to care for Country and family. We recognise the example set by the creator serpent, the Waugal, who after forming the lands and waterways fought Yondok the Crocodile to keep saltwater from poisoning the river. We recognise Dwerda the Dingo Spirit who stands guard up on Cantonment Hill, keeping watch while the Waugal sleeps. We respect the resting place of the creator serpent in the cliffs of Rocky Bay.
We acknowledge this place and its diverse web of human stories, of a thousand generations gathering and sharing by the banks. From ceremony and law, to meeting on the hilltops to watch the tall ships come, to sending fire messages to family imprisoned on Wadjemup (Rottnest Island), this area has been of great community significance. We acknowledge that Fremantle is also known as Walyalup: Place of the Woylie, Place of the Eagle, and Place of Tears.
We acknowledge this place in the current season of Bunuru, the ‘second summer’ and hottest part of the year, where hot easterly winds are met with cool sea breezes.
We acknowledge the importance of developing a Connection to Country, and we recognise the generosity of Noongar Elders and community members who guide us in this. We acknowledge the Whadjuk people of the Noongar Nation as the Traditional Custodians of this land and waters upon which this art piece occurs. We pay our respects to their Elders past and present, and extend that respect to all Aboriginal people.

As you travel along our ancient waterways, listen to the spirit of my Noongar Ancestors – who speak to us through the trees, rivers
and landscape – whose footprints you walk in when you leave. elder marie taylor

message from perth festival
Inspired by Western Australia’s distinctive sense of place, Perth Festival presents experiences to celebrate the incredible corner of the world we live in, and the stories that make it unique. The mouth of the Swan River, the Port of Fremantle and people whose lives are connected with them are the stars of Five Short Blasts.
Working ports and docklands are some of the most resonant places on earth. Ancient human cultures and modern global economies have always been drawn to the meeting point of river and sea. Transformed by industrial processes, we rarely think of them as sites for learning, listening and imagining.
Two years ago, I experienced Five Short Blasts on the busy waterways and canals of Hamburg. It seemed to me a perfect project to re-imagine for Fremantle, whose constantly moving cranes and stacked shipping containers are an iconic image of this place.
Artists Madeleine Flynn and Tim Humphrey have created a gentle journey on a flotilla of small boats at dawn and dusk, to encounter the sights, sounds and stories of Fremantle Port life from the water. The rhythms of the day, the tide, and the changing light are all part of this glorious experience of listening, looking, and discovering new ways of seeing.

Five Short Blasts Manifest
“I am not sure of your intentions and am concerned we are going to collide.”
Maritime vessels use the audible signal of five short blasts to communicate this alarm, using a horn, a whistle or whatever is to hand. Every aspect of Five Short Blasts is inspired and deeply informed by this maritime expression of uncertainty, drawing attention to the shared act of navigating the unknown.
On any large vessel, a manifest is a list of all the passengers, cargo, and crew. Copies of the manifest are kept on shore, and stowed safely in the vessel itself. For Five Short Blasts, this manifest is the substantial evidence of an experience, one which might otherwise become confined to a private memory.
The contents concern a place that is extraordinarily changeable – in its geography and appearance, its moods, population, traffic, and dedicated activities.
Local writer Cassie Lynch has created a poetic response to Five Short Blasts, a reflection on the Deep Time of this place.
We invite you, as a passenger of the Five Short Blasts flotilla, to contribute to a tangible record of the experience, by witnessing your own presence on the boat.
Remember, if all is lost at sea, sometimes the manifest is the only remaining statement attesting to a shared voyage. And all voyages, literal and metaphorical, are subject to contingency. They are always subject to the natural contingencies of the weather –which, in Fremantle, can be seen at their most subtle and dramatic around the port, and through the movements of the Fremantle Doctor.

Five Short Blasts Fremantle is an encounter with a place that has always connected the river with the sea.
The Noongar term, Manjaree, describes this site as a meeting place; an often- unheard zone of contested narratives, with an incidental and interdependent orchestration of story, creatures, weather, industry, vessels, and people.
Over the past 12 months, in seeking out what can be heard, we have listened in to the ambiences of a busy working port and deeply significant river. We have created ways to bring onto the water the testimony of those who live and work around its margins –especially through the medium of radio communication.
The modern maritime environment is unimaginable without radio communication. Via an FM broadcast, voices of past, present, and future river passage echo through the musical texture.
Our composition is marked by the influences of the original cultures of this place, and by the riverscape’s rapid and dramatic alterations. The vibrant rhythms of transformative cycles around the harbour, river, and port are also reflected in what you hear.
Those who work, play, visit and stay, on, under, and around this stretch of water have given us a miraculous encounter with an age-old site. Through Five Shorts Blasts Fremantle it is our hope that your encounter might prove as memorable.

The overriding motif of sea and water travel – the international marine language – is heard in sound signals. This reduced language of symbols is universally understood and communicated through a ship’s horn, and especially through marine radio broadcast. Signal and radio broadcast, including real marine radio messages, are a central part of the audio texture of Five Short Blasts.
In port and at sea, older communication technologies survive chiefly as valued maritime heritage. Even so, often they can still be called upon when radio becomes impractical or impossible. Audible signals must be used when visibility is low.
The visual codes of flag colours and semaphore, together with the audio signals, form a rich and enduring suite of communication options. The newest addition to these is webcast information that plots vessel positions and sea conditions. These signalling codes are valued as maritime heritage. Dwerda Weelardinup (Cantonment Hill) remains the best place in Fremantle to visually survey the lower river and harbour areas. It holds the inestimable cultural heritage of tens of thousands of years. It remains a sacred site for the Whadjuk Noongar people.
Broadcasting on 5SB-FM on 89.1 KHz, Five Short Blasts also streams at fiveshortblasts.com.au.
Madeleine Flynn Tim Humphrey
The lessons of an enduring and practical society, where signals are essential and pragmatic for the running of place, while at the same time potent signifiers of what is culturally important, find a coincidence at Cantonment Hill. This significant site was appropriated for the growing Port of Fremantle as its VTS
(Vehicle Traffic Services) centre, before it relocated to the Administration Building in 1964. It now hosts the Fremantle Volunteer Sea Rescue who are deeply embedded in Fremantle’s maritime culture. For Five Short Blasts, it is our broadcast point for 89.1 FM.

“The hills in the area were very important to the Aboriginal community.
Anywhere around the area where there were hills – that was where they would have gone to look out, to see who was coming or not. It was a very protective thing, making sure nobody was coming to cause harm to the community…”

BASIC RULES OF THE WATERWAYS
1. When two power boats are approaching headon, or nearly head on, each must alter course tostarboard and pass on each other’s port side.
2. When a vessel is crossing your bow fromstarboard to port, that vessel has right of way andyou should keep clear. Stop or reduce speed andpass under his stern. (Give way to the vessel onyour right.)
3. When overtaking another vessel, the vesselbeing passed has right of way and you mustalways keep clear of that vessel.
4. When a vessel is crossing your bow from port tostarboard you should maintain course and speedas you have the right of way. If the other vesseldoes not give way, you should take all action toavoid a collision.
5. When in a narrow channel keep to starboard.
6. It is an offence for any vessel to be moored oranchored in any channel or fairway, unless thatvessel is in distress. Large and deep draughtedvessels have restricted manoeuvrability. Small craftmust keep well clear of these vessels at all timesand must not hamper the larger vessel’s progress.

On the scale of Deep Time, this Swan Coastal Plain is a geologic infant. The dunes are barely 30 million years old. In contrast, that Country east over the Darling Scarp, the interior of Noongar Country, that Wheatbelt Country, is two billion years old. When the Indian Plate broke away it left a basin on the edge of the continent 15-kilometres deep. This was during the Jurassic, that time of dinosaurs. Noongar Country had its own giant reptiles, the creator serpents, the Waugal, as they are known in the first language of this place. Over millions of years the Waugal wore down the hills of the ancient interior with wind and rain and washed the pieces down into the basin left by the tearing away of India. A new part of Noongar Country was created.
Buried beneath us, under the thin blue layer of river, under the river floor, under limestone, granite, shale and rock, there is a scar. This scar reaches from Pemberton in the south to Shark Bay in the north. It is the Darling Fault, a 1500-kilometre split deep in the earth. A memory of where the Indian tectonic plate shore off from the side of the Australian continent 200 million years ago. The split pushed up the Darling Scarp, that long spine of rock running north to south along the Swan Coastal Plain. The mountains on top reflect the split deep beneath. Mountain-making is a feature of Deep Time. Geologic Time. Earth Time. But this is a story not about mountain-making, but river-making, about the riverlords and rainmakers who made this part of Noongar Country.

The Cretaceous was a time of warm climate and shallow inland seas. In Noongar Country, layer upon layer of earth was laid down forming bands of limestone and granite. The serpents pushed up hills and sunk swamplands. They crafted beaches from the skeletal remains of ancient sea creatures. They pushed water deep into the earth and formed giant aquifers. The Cretaceous ended with the strike of a colossal meteorite, an event of mass extinction. But the Waugal prevailed. When this coastland was finished the serpents laid their bodies down and embedded themselves in the landscape. And now we sit on little boats on their body. You can reach out and feel the watery scales of the freshwater deity that formed Whadjuk Noongar Country, who split the earth and pushed away a continent to create it.
Saltwater tears apart what freshwater builds. Every breath of wind blows this Country flatter. The ground is made of the broken-down mountains of an ancient interior, and one day this loose land beneath us will wash away. This is marginal Country, a temporary softness that clings to the edge of the oldest surface rock in the world. That ancient rock of the Wheatbelt has endured through the joining and separating of Pangaea and Gondwana, and it will prevail through all the ages of the Earth, long after the Swan Coastal Plain has eroded away. In the scale of Geologic Time this coastal area was formed yesterday, and will be gone tomorrow. To the Waugal this river is one glorious moment, where a black swan glides in to land with a splash, preens under its wing, then disappears. This Cretaceous riverland dreamed by serpents is a fleeting moment in Deep Time.

THE BOAT BECOMES A HEARTTony Birch
In the time before the bay all boats were trees. The boats stood end to end, settling into earth and touching sky. The boats grew in the mountains and lined the river valleys. They rounded their bodies and carried water. They gave care with strength. When it was time for new life, the boats provided the hollows for newborn and the cribs for nests. And when it was time for death they cocooned the spirit in sanctuary and journeyed the spirit home.
In the time of the bay the feet of the boats left the earth and lay and rested on stone and earth and waited to be called to the water – they were called – and drifted along rivers born in the mountains and flowing with music. They navigated the web of creeks surrounding the bay, and met where the mouth of the ancient river announced its arrival to the bay. In the time of the humans the boats have worked for us, crossing the waters, providing life. When the ghosts first came they arrived in boats that once were trees that had always been boats, listening to be called and shaped.
When the men and women came in iron chains cutting skin and bone, with children dying in the arms of mothers, they came in boats groaning with sadness and anger. And when the boats wept and sent themselves to the bottom of the sea, they took the ghosts, the men and women and the babies with them. They are there, ready for us, resting in coffins that were trees. Today, when the desperate come to us for sanctuary, they do not come in boats made of iron and machine.
They come in boats of wood collapsing under the weight of life, in boats that once were trees in the forests of Europe, in the jungles of Africa, and the plains of North America. The boats speak and have a question for us. They want to know if we are human? And if we are ready to lift the desperate from the water and carry them to safety? Or will we send them away? The boats are telling us they were here before us. And when we are gone they will be here again, standing end on end, reaching for the sky and speaking with the earth.

I J K L M N
B C D E F G
A non-verbal telegraphy system that conveys information at a distance by means of visual signals. The signals are made with hand-held flags, rods, disks, paddles, or occasionally bare or gloved hands held in specific positions according to an alphabetic code.
Semaphore systems were adopted and widely used in the maritime world during the 19th century. Semaphore is still employed at sea today; it is acceptable for emergency communication in daylight, and at night, when lighted wands instead of flags are used. At sea, the semaphore flags are coloured red and yellow (the OSCAR flag), while on land, they are white and blue (the PAPA flag).
“I intend to overtake you on your starboard side.”
“I intend to overtake you on your port side.”
“The vessel about to be overtaken indicating its agreement.”
“I am nearing a bend where another vessel may be obscured by an intervening obstruction.”
Short blast – about 1 second duration
Prolonged blast – 4 to 6 seconds duration
“I am altering my course to starboard.”
“I am altering my course to port.”
“I am operating astern propulsion.”

Message Markers In shore-to-ship and ship-to-shore communication or radio communication in general, the following eight Message Markers may be used:
(i) Instruction (v) Question (ii) Advice (vi) Answer (iii) Warning (vii) Request (iv) Information (viii) Intention
Standard Organisational Phrases
“How do you read?”
“I read you...” – followed by:
bad/one with signal strength one (i.e. barely perceptible)
poor/two with signal strength two (i.e. weak)
fair/three with signal strength three (i.e. fairly good)
good/four with signal strength four (i.e. good)
excellent/five with signal strength five (i.e. very good)
Corrections
When a mistake is made in a message, say:
“Mistake...” – followed by the word:
“Correction...” plus the corrected part of the message.
Example: “My present speed 14 knots – mistake.
Correction, my present speed 12, one–two , knots.”
glossary The International Maritime Organisation’s Standard Marine Communication Phrases (SMCP) were adopted in November 2001 as resolution A.918(22) IMO Standard Marine Communication Phrases.
The IMO SMCP includes phrases which have been developed to cover the most important safety-related fields of verbal shore-to-ship (and vice-versa), ship-to-ship, and on-board communications. The aim is to get around the problem of language barriers at sea, and to avoid misunderstandings which can cause accidents.
The IMO SMCP builds on a basic knowledge of English, and has been drafted in a simplified version of maritime English. It includes phrases for use in routine situations such as berthing, as well as standard phrases and responses for use in emergency situations.
Selections from the IMO SMCP When in external communication spelling is necessary, only the following spelling table should be used:

Cassie Lynch Cassie Lynch is a writer and academic living in Perth. She is currently researching a creative writing PhD investigating the intersection of Aboriginal cultural memory and scientific concepts of Deep Time. She is a descendant of the Noongar people whose ancestral lands comprise the south west and south coast of Western Australia. She is a student of the Noongar language, and is the Artistic Director of Woylie Fest, an all-Aboriginal storytelling festival based in Fremantle. She spends a lot of time thinking about Perth’s wetlands, lakes, streams and aquifers, and this might have permanently diverted a tributary of the Swan River through her cerebellum.

Mark Zuvela is an architect born and bred in Perth, and is a skipper for Fremantle Sea Rescue. His work to restore their new Headquarters on Cantonment Hill was a labour of love, not least for the fact that it was the first building his mother saw when she arrived in Fremantle from her native Croatia.
Mike Lefroy has been mucking about in boats on the Swan River for 60 years. He began in home-made tin canoes, graduating to larger boats before escaping to sea in ocean racing yachts. He is now back in the river in a small white dinghy with sails of sunset red.
John Longley has been involved with sailing and the sea almost all of his life. He sailed as a crew member in five consecutive America’s Cup campaigns from 1974 to 1987.
Forty years ago, Sandy McKendrick left her job at a library and went to live on a prawning boat in Fremantle Fishing Boat Harbour. After spending so much time beneath the surface of oceans and rivers, Sandy is surprised that she hasn’t grown gills.

Andrew Portwine was born to the bush, then drawn to the sea.
Anna Reece first learnt to read the wind and the river as a sea scout. For her, the cranes, shipping containers and the sounds of the Fremantle Port at work signal comfort, freedom and home.
Dr. Chandra Salgado-Kent has worked for over 20 years as an academic in marine ecology. She has recently begun freelancing through Oceans Blueprint, producing and sharing science that opens the human appetite for future sustainable oceans.
