User keywords, or 'tags', are words added to object records by other users to enhance their discovery. You can add keywords that may be useful in helping others find this object.

We are experimenting with tagging because sometimes museums describe objects in language that is highly specialist and user added keywords are useful in bridging the 'semantic gap' between the language of the museum and that of the user.

Any keywords listed have been added by other users like yourself. You can click on them to use them as search terms to dicover other objects. User tags
Related subjects lists the broad themes that have relevance to the object you are viewing. You can click these themes to see other objects related thematically. Related Subjects

'Autogenerated tags' are a new feature that we are testing. These tags are generated by passing the object record through the OpenCalais service from Reuters. This service makes a 'best guess' at the names, places, companies and specialist terminolgy that is in the text of the object records.

By clicking on a tag you can find all other collection records related to that person, place or company.

Because the tags are autogenerated there are likely to be some errors. If you spot one of these then please flag the tag for deletion by clicking the 'x'. Auto-generated tags: [Beta]

Description
Diary, '1995 Reg Mombassa', paper, Reno Design Group/Transworld Publishers (Aust) Pty Limited, Sydney, 1994
1995 'Reg Mombassa' diary with student planner with full colour illustrations and aphorisms for each month by Reg Mombassa (aka. Chris O'Doherty). Illustrations are fully documented with title, media, size and location of the original art works. Illustrations include: August- 'Beauty is trouser-thin' featuring a "beer-bellied yobbo" dancing near a radio and speaker in a quirky, apocalyptic, landscape. The aphorism for this month reads, "Despite the imperial pomp of its title this is a common buffoon of a month with the bad habit of uttering gratuitous profanities and exposing its bottoms in public places". The diary is published using Reg Mombassa and the Reno Design Group's award winning typeface 'Mombassa Supreme' and their 'Blocky Outline' typeface.
