documentation </span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="font-family:monospace"><span lang="EN-US">Linguistics in the Pub had a discussion
late last year about musicology and language documentation. Music is one of the
directions in which language documentation projects can be extended. Another is
visual art: including discussions about visual art and documenting visual art
practice is another way of extending a language documentation project.</span></p>

<p class="MsoNormal" style="font-family:monospace"><span lang="EN-US">Participating in the session will be
Frances Kofod who has a long history of documenting East Kimberley Art in the
Australian languages Miriwoong and Gija. She is currently currently working on
a project funded by ELDP and sponsored by the University of Manchester called
"The painter's eye, the painter's voice: Language, art and landscape
in the Gija world.".</span></p>
