Field notes
ANU’s navigation groups films, music videos, a game, blog posts, and an artist profile. The game description names a civic ladder—citizen, ward, mayor, parliament, prime minister—and frames advancement around trust; the extract does not show its rules or confirm how much is playable. The artist profile ties songs to flood-affected families, student protest, and villages without schools or health posts. The footer says AI was used and credits a human director.
