Introduction Expansion though fallout is a project that aims to explore the relationship between ‘Australia’ and ideas of ‘Remoteness’ through a the event of British Nuclear Testing [1955-1963] as a form of territorial expansion. It does so through both an unpacking of collective activity, and an unfolding of an individual journey. Both explorations simultaneously grapple with traditional ideas of ‘remoteness’ but also encounter contradictions to this idea, or, work to ‘debunk’ this traditional understanding. Together, these two explorations also explore the idea of ‘fallout’. Zooming in, the literal ‘fallout’ of nine different nuclear bomb tests across three different sites within Australia can be seen to cover almost the entirety of Australia. Zooming out, the idea of ‘fallout’ the British nuclear testing as an event is used as an example of colonisation, and furthermore, a frame for other other events that have or may take place in the expansion of territory. 01
02
With ‘Australia as Remote’ the starting point, how has the collective’s territory expanded by perceptions of ‘remoteness’, and how does resulting activity contribute to a collective understanding of the ‘remote’, both in the past and currently. ‘Collective activity’ begins with an exploration into how Australia was and is potentially perceived as ‘remote’ and how this has foreshadowed (and potentially led to) ‘Fallout’. It then explores how a collective perception of remote has perhaps prompted a continued expansion of territory, foreshadowing potential future ‘fallouts’.
With ‘Remote Australia’ the starting point, how far can I zoom in and navigate the ‘remote’, both literally (virtually) and figuratively (conceptually), and how does this zooming in process begin to reveal new understandings of ‘remoteness’? My ‘Individual Journey’ begins with an attempt to understand my idea of a more common understanding of ‘remoteness’ and translates this into a spatial starting point for a virtual exploration of Maralinga and beyond. Through the sequence of maps, both the relevance and the focus on this ‘remote’ area weakens.
For this map series, the initial interest lay in the extent of the Australian EEZ boundary and it’s inclusion of Antarctic territory. Moving through the scales, this image is unpacked. Beginning at a global scale, a narrative unfolds, speculating on how this image came to be.
For this map series, the initial interest began with the ‘blank’ space left between roads in a typical google maps image. Moving through the scales, this image is unpacked. Beginning at the scale of Australia, a zooming process unfolds, speculating on the true ‘blankness’ of this image.
While these two simultaneous explorations may at first seem as ‘seperate’, their interconnectedness is revealed through the drawing set. The exploration begins to suggest similarities between my own process of exploration and that of the collective, while posing interesting questions for the discipline of landscape architecture.

The ‘collective’ may be understood as more than one, a governing body, a collective of individuals. Within this project, the collective mostly refers to the crown (or British empire), and the Australian government. It does however also extend to groups such as mining companies, traditional owner groups, or for example those who own the satellites such as google. The idea of the collective may also, and perhaps most importantly, begin to refer to Landscape Architecture as a discipline.
The ‘individual’ may be understood as the singular, a single person or perspective, you, me, I, they, them etc. In the case of this project the singular largely refers to myself as the map maker. More indirectly, the idea of the ‘individual’ extends to including things such as the singular event or moment, a place where solitude may be experienced, or personal associations, thoughts, or experiences. The idea of the individual may also, and perhaps most importantly, begin to reflect to the reader/s of this document as an individual.
A ‘traditional’ or ‘Common’ understanding: that which lies ‘out there’, ‘in the middle of no where’. A place distanced and / or isolated from the personal point of origin. An area of ‘nothing-ness’, or ideas ‘terra-nullius’, ideas emptiness. The unknown or the uncontrollable. In the case of Australia, ideas of remoteness are often associated with images of the hot, the dry and the dusty, the ‘red dirt’, isolated places in ‘the middle of nowhere’, flatness and never ending expanse. A personal understanding: a feeling of unfamiliarity, either with ones self or with ones surrounds, regardless of ones physical distance from one’s personal point of origin. [03/21]
A term which describes the articulation or translation of one’s comprehension of space onto or into a medium which is then used to understand one’s surround or the world around them (eg. A map). The product or result of a need for control, understanding or definition. The result or product of ideas of ownership, authority or control. [03/21]
An Economic Exclusion Zone. An area of Australian control. An arbitrary boundary, a 200 nautical mile projection from a deemed ‘base line’ on the coast of Australia. A framework I had never heard of before…
radioactive particles that are carried into the atmosphere after a nuclear explosion and gradually fall back as dust or in precipitation, or, the adverse results of a situation or action [oxford dictionary] In the case of the project, ‘Fallout’ is understood both in terms of its’ nuclear testing reference, but also as a frame through to which to understand an event. Various events may be considered themselves a ‘fallout’, but may also leave their own version of ‘fallout’ within the world around them, or within the area in which they took place.

Australia as ‘remote’ Collective Expansion Part 01
‘Fallout’ 03: Colonization of ‘Australia’ by the British Empire
Australia has, and may be understood as ‘remote’, ‘out there’, or ‘down there’. Our ‘island’ status embodies ideas of distance and isolation. It take’s a journey to get to us, whether the journey of the First Fleet, or the usual two plane ride’s from the northern hemisphere. we are arguably perceived as ‘far away’ or ‘in the middle of no where’. From ‘point zero’ or the ‘prime’, we were a place to be conquered, a place to which to expand one’s territory. This vertical line, that which defined ‘east’ from ‘west’, A line who’s presence more than 70% of the worlds commerce relied on by the end of the 19th century, projected from the grounds of our ‘colonial motherland’. We were perceived as ‘Terra Nullius’, a place to take over, a place with on which to test. Today, as we sit seperate from our ‘global north’ partners, to the rest of the world we are the country that houses the worlds most isolated city (Perth), the country who hosts the longest single plain rider (14 hours from Perth to London direct), a country seems to always be a ‘step behind’. But while we may lie out of the periphery from the ‘centre’ of the world, Australia was and in many ways still is ‘undiscovered’ to the European eye. Approx area of next zoom

1600km Offerings to ideas of ‘remote’: In it’s traditional sense, I have found the ‘remote’, in fact it prompted the exploration. I have also found the information that suggests it is ‘anything but empty’ [young, 2010]. But in terms of my own feeling of ‘remoteness’ (the distance from one’s self), my points of interest lie far from my point of origin - yet I still feel within the realms of the ‘familiar’ - the ‘recognisable’ feels within reach.
From the Stuart Hwy (01) the first point of interest, ‘empty’ spaces are searched for. Places that one must leave the road to access. ‘Plot One’ (02) sits near by. One of the larger ‘empty’ plots, it encompasses activity but tracts outwards to the ‘nothingness’. In between the two (01 and 02) lies appears to be the intersection of ‘everything’ and ‘nothingness’; with the highest areas of fallout and the major roads to the right, and with the least amount of fallout and largest ‘empty’ plots to the left, the two biggest nuclear test sites lie silently (invisible to eye at this scale) in the middle. They two are a representation of simultaneous ‘nothingness’ and ‘everything’; their visual presence muted (both visually to the eye and figuratively within the collective knowledge) and their invisible fallout prominent.
The screen is set, in one screen shot ‘Australia’, as a whole, is centred. Only ‘major’ roads are visible at this scale. Yet and an entire network of flight paths that connects us to the ‘globe’ is present. Together they ‘crisscross’ the field, dividing up space. Roads that cross this remote expanse and the ‘negative’ space left in-between flight paths become of interest. Nuclear fall out covers the country, except for the bottom left corner. Areas of the highest fall out are drawn out in comparison to that of ‘no fallout’. Entering in and out of ‘Street view’, prompted by the ‘alien scape’ aesthetics of the aerial image, road side locations are are scouted for their unfamiliarity - random points on the Eyre or Stuart Hwy or the end of the google street view access on the Outback Hwy for example. Screenshots are ‘grabbed’ and their horizon lines extracted. Details such as ‘the end of the road?’ Or the ‘end of street view’ are picked up.
Beginning at point 00, my personal point of origin. The ‘remote’ is defined, a boundary made up of the intersection of other boundaries: the ‘Hot Desert’, the ‘Very Remote’, the ‘Red Dirt’ and ‘flatness’ - the same information that paint a picture of the ‘classic’ remote. This ‘remote’ may be understood as ‘nothing-ness’. This guides the initial trajectory of exploration.

A land now colonised becomes a place with on which to explore, extract a test. From an ‘empty canvas’ to a marked up ground. This is place is no longer ‘nothing ness’. With an abundance of resource lying below our crust, the ground becomes scattered with mining sites. Our addiction to digging, and the development of such extraction sites, requires a connected nation, hundred of airfields lie marked in the ground. But what lies as quietly as the uranium submerged within the ground, is the collective activity of this materials use. No longer needed for our dirty testing, the activity that was conveniently tucked away in our ‘remoteness’, ‘out of sight, out of mind’ to our European controllers, this resource still has demand. One of the largest exporters, territory is further expanded through offshore fall outs. After all, Australian uranium played it’s part in one of the worlds worst recent nuclear testing disasters, Fukashima.

Offerings to ideas of ‘remote’: In its traditional sense, I have once again found the ‘remote’, however it feels refined for refined’s sake. The information that suggests it is ‘anything but empty’ [young, 2010] is still present. But in terms of my own feeling of ‘remoteness’ (the distance from one’s self), my points of interest still lie far from my point of origin - and for the most part I still feel within the realms of the ‘familiar’ - this new northern path however feels less recognisable, a path that I can’t place in memories or associations.
The screen is set, in seven screen shots South Australia is centred. More detail becomes available, the next level of visible roads appear. Flight paths are no longer just lines, but lines connected by a series of points, ‘way points’ - a hidden geography of the sky. Again, the carving up of the field by the criss-crossing paths reveals areas of interest. Nuclear fall out continues to cover the field, however we no longer see the area with no fallout, instead the entirety of the ground is covered. Again the areas with the greatest amount of fallout are picked up. Entering in and out of ‘Street view’, prompted by a new range of access, locations such as the hwy into the Olympic Dam or the end of the google street view access of the Lasseter Hwy are explored. Details such as floating waypoints (those who don’t lie on a flight path) are picked up. From the first plot of interest, ‘Plot 01’ (02) the first point of interest, new secondary roads that lie within visual reach become of interest. A new point of interest, ‘Path: Lasseter Hwy’ emerges. With now three points of interest, an area becomes triangulated. Within this area lies the ‘remote’, higher fallout recordings to the right and lower to the left, as well as, similar to the previous map, more road access on the right, and bigger ‘empty’ plots to the left. The two major test sites, and a ‘floating waypoint’ become details that lie centred in this area of interest.
Zooming in, Positioning myself within the previous areas of interest. The ‘remote’ is redefined, once again a boundary made up of the intersection of other boundaries: the ‘Hot Desert’, the ‘Very Remote’, the ‘Red Dirt’ and ‘flatness’ - however now, the ‘remote’ area is now less defined by ‘objective’ measures such as ‘distance from services’ (classified as very remote) and more by climatic, topographic and visual factors. The latter, ‘the red dirt’ has quickly taken over however, with the most consistently red body of dirt extracted from the satellite imagery.

‘Fallout’ 03: Establishment of the Australian EEZ Boundary
With a land now valued for it’s rare commodities, and now more connected than once thought (both with itself and with the rest of the world), in the eyes of the collective there calls a need for protection and control, particularly that of economic activity; the establishment of the australian EEZ boundary. We hold our most valuable close, as the ‘protected resource management’ classified land lies at our centre. From this centre radiates out hidden sets of spatial control. These layers extend across land, sea and the air. While the class a, b, c, and d airspace is arguably needed to regulate the safe distance between aircraft, and while the woomera prohibited area, a product of our dirty testing past, ensures human engagement with defence testing (more dirty testing) is kept to a minimum, the Australian EEZ perhaps sits more confusingly. Its purpose in question, an effort of conservation, or is it simply a ‘land grab’. Either way it is an extension of Australia, an expansion of territory. Approx area of next zoom

200km Zooming in, Positioning myself within the previous areas of interest. The ‘remote’ is once again redefined, a boundary made up of the intersection of other boundaries: the ‘Hot Desert’, the ‘Very Remote’, the ‘Red Dirt’ and ‘flatness’ - however now, the ‘remote’ area is now less defined by the more subjective areas of red dirt and more by the new topographic detail. The screen is set, the north west of South Australia is centred. With now 127 screen shots need to achieve a new level of road data, an overwhelming amount of new detail becomes available. Roads go beyond just including ‘primary’ and ‘secondary’ or those which have been deemed notable for digitally directed travel, ‘vehicle tracks’ are now present, those that can only be picked up and defined by satellite imagery. Waypoints no longer anonymous, they have names, a way to recognise and familiarise one’s self with the paths in the sky. Again, the carving up of the field by the criss-crossing paths reveals a lot more detailed areas of interest. The layer of Fallout that covers the field has thickened. The product of now separating the three sets of tests worth of data. The highest and lowest areas are all relative, we now see the highest and lowest of the overall ‘highest’ within the country. We site now, in the ‘thick of it’… Still entering in and out of ‘Street view’, with now ‘photo spheres’ providing just as much access as the few stretches of ‘street view’ left, locations such as the eastern Simpson desert, and a random dirt road are picked up on. Meanwhile, a ‘virtual road trip’ of the Stuart Hwy is continued. Details such as ‘the end of the road’ have appeared, and haven been noted in abundance. From latest point of interest, a new point is added (04), Plot 02 has emerged, this time a plot defined by roads instead of flight paths. It lies in-between the three previous roads and plots of interest, and lies intersects the first plot of interest (02). Because of the sheer size of the ‘empty’ space it encompasses, it feels perhaps a ‘more extreme’ plot to pursue compared to its’ smaller neighbours. Within these now four points/areas of interest, a combination of paths and plots, a whole new world has emerged in the field. Again the higher ‘activity’ lies to the right in the form of intricate informal paths, with an absence of such detail contrasting to the left. While the fall out technically still sits higher to the right, the gradient from left to right is now far more gradual and subtle. What lies in the middle now, seems to be a mix of the two. A series of the larger empty plots, with tiny ‘end of the road’ details that face outwards to what appears as an open expanse. Is this the remote? Offerings to ideas of ‘remote’: With the boundary of ‘remote’, that which reflects ‘remote’ in the traditional sense, now feeling more irrelevant (due to distance between roads remaining consistent beyond this boundary) and the presence of ‘hidden’ fall out still ‘debunking’ the ‘emptiness’ of the field, perhaps my alternative idea of remoteness becomes more relevant. Compared to the previous two maps, my level of recognition and association with the places I am virtually inhabiting within the field has lessened. These ‘end of the road’ details provoke sensations of perceived isolation and begin to suggest ideas of the ‘sublime’ as they look out towards the visual endless expanse. But does the fact that these areas spark such imaginative thoughts within the mind of the map maker suggest I feel far from ‘distanced’ from myself?

Zooming in once more, this time the 27 screen shots are kept from the previous scale, as that was the most detailed amount of road data available. This new scale however prompts an exploration into how far one can zoom in with google earth satellite imagery. The remote boundary has changed again, and this time it is almost entirely made up of the ‘Red Dirt’ outline. The ‘emptiness’ between roads and flight paths expands as the vastness of the areas finally becomes some what comprehendible. No sites are recognisable, instead they are simply details found while panning the aerial images. Beginning with the previous ‘end of the road’ point of interest (05), I search for other points like these. These ‘end of the road’ details become the most dominant detail to pick up. Just one photo sphere now lies in the filed, and no street view is available. Where am I and what are these places? Have I hit ‘nothingness’ or am I still within reach of ‘something’? claiming land. Could this be another ‘fallout’?

Offerings to ideas of ‘remote’: The boundary of ‘remote’, now just a ‘red dirt’ expanse, becomes at once insignificant in the object sense but perhaps incredibly significant when it comes to exploring ideas of the remote. At this scale distance becomes some what comprehendible, but at the same time, un relatable. Nothing appears as familiar to me, except for the roads I am forced to search for a second time as I am forced to pan the zoomed in satellite at painfully short distances at a time to relocate the roads I wanted to revisit. I feel somewhat distanced from myself in terms of feeling in control of this process, yet the last point of interest continues to demand more attention in my imagination. A lot of the potential sites in this area do…
Zooming in once more, Positioning myself within the previous areas of interest. The ‘remote’ is the fourth time now redefined, and now a boundary made up of mostly ‘the red dirt’ as this became the inner most boundary of overlap out of all the layers used. The screen is set, the point at 27°56’17.2”S 129°49’32.6”E is centred. With the same _ screen shots needed to achieve the same level of road data as the previous scale, what was previously an overwhelming amount of new detail becomes more spacious, we have reached the limit in terms of road available road date. ‘Roads’ now include more unnamed tracks than those ‘major’ or ‘secondary’. Flight paths and their named points haven’t increased in complexity either. A once carved field now seems more mellow or calm as more breathing space emerges with the lack of new detail at this level of zoom. The layer of Fallout however has once again become more thickened. 9 layers, representing 9 separate nuclear tests undertaken on Australian territory now cover the ground. The amount of fallout (high) now almost consistent across the field. Entering in and out of ‘Street view’ is now no longer an option, and just one ‘photo sphere’ provides a virtual ‘on the ground’ experience of an unknown place. Details such as ‘the end of the road’ have carried on from the previous scale and can now be observed in more detail. From latest point of interest (04), the unusually shaped plot created by interesting tracks, a new and final point is added (05), Path 03 has emerged as a significant ‘end of the road’ as it ventures out into the great ‘negative’ space. A space defined by both paths on the ground and in the air space above. With points of interest 01 and 03 now out of the field, the remaining points triangulate and centre this final point. With more activity or information now lying to the top right; slightly higher fallout, the only photo sphere, a singular floating way point, and more informal paths, the less activity now falls to the bottom left. The new ‘end of the road’ detail falls interestingly in-between the two. From an ‘on the ground’ perspective this point suggests an idea of ‘nothing ness’ with no neighbouring road in sight, while from an above perspective this point can most likely be seen on a clear day out the aeroplane window. Ideas of nothingness and everything therefor seem to exist at the same time.

Conclusion With Australia’s Economic Exclusions Zone now one of the largest in the world, and, with the limits of the virtual zoom extents having now been reached, whats next? Whats next for ‘Australian’ territory, and what is next for remote visual access of this territory? And, what does this mean for the role of the designer? But perhaps more interestingly, how has this process of remotely zooming in informed my ideas of ‘remoteness’, and what can this process of zooming in and establishing areas of interest offer to a practice of landscape architecture - whether that be my own practice moving forward, or, for the discipline more generally? Critically reflecting, was my search for ‘remote’, both conceptually and spatially on the map, as much driven by an aesthetic desire as it was informed by environmental or spatial conditions? Yes. Was I perhaps more interested in finding locations that looked or felt more ‘remote’ than areas defined by interesting relationships between conditions? Yes. This perhaps offers something to the idea of ‘remoteness’. Perhaps a definition of ‘remoteness’ has become, throughout this project, less about either the ‘traditional’ (the image of a hot dry endless red expanse, in the middle of nowhere, miles away from help) or my personal alternative (a place that instills a feeling of distance with one’s self, regardless of the location or physical distance from a point of origin), but instead something in-between these ideas. Is the ‘remote’ then an ‘aesthetic’ as much as it is a measure of physical distance, or personal distance from one’s self? If then the ‘remote’ is considered as ‘aesthetic’ how does this manipulate, but also open up, the process of exploring sites? And, if my future landscape architectural practice is concerned with developing projects that interrogate the hidden ‘activity’ that lies ‘out there’ (both in the sense of physical distance, but also in the collective’s understanding of the world around us), then the perhaps this process has something to offer the selection of sites. The Bouncing between path and plot, is like venturing out and then retreating back inwards, imagining a point of isolation and then imagining the feeling of wanting to return back to the safety of infrastructure. The sites that emerged from this process are definitely worthy of future design research exploration. The process of finding these sites, it worth developing, but also worth remaining critical about. Is the process of zooming in from a far not too dissimilar to that of a colonising practice? And Is the craving of finding the ‘new’ or ‘undiscovered’ project concept some what similar to searching for new areas to expand one’s territory. As Designers, there can be desire, amongst a culture of innovation, to work with the ‘new’ and the ‘hidden’, especially with more focus (and perhaps even a trend) towards anthropocentric activity. A refection for myself and for others would be to remain mindful of why I am selecting the sites and project concepts I am. Remain critical to how you are expanding your territory and which conceptual spaced you are occupying. Remain aware of any potential fallout. Reflection on process Not knowing, or not being able to articulate the project was a place I found myself in for the majority of the semester. It was not until about 3 weeks out from the end the the projects narrative came together. While the clarification and ‘light bulb’ moment was immensely satisfying and exciting, it came with the realisation of how much work was still involved to see out the project. The concept had essentially set up a whole new exercise of mapping; a exploration of personally zooming into the ‘remote’ (south australia) via the ‘remote’ (a virtual platform). With limited time, some aspects of the mapping fell short, as particular elements of the process were not executed to the greatest level of detail. Without the level of detail being carried across, and developing, across each scale of the map, it meant the outcomes of the process formed in quite a particular way and leaves the question, what would they have become if the level of detail was consistent throughout the process? For example, the 4 layers of information, Topography, Climate, Red Dirt, and National Remoteness, that were used to create the ‘remote’ boundary, started off using 4 different base maps at the Australian scale. Here, the detail of each piece of information was more or less consistent with each. As I moved to the next scale however, I ran out of time to update this information in some ways. That is, I was able to find a new level of detailed topographic data, and I was able to zoom into the aerial image, however I did not leave myself enough time to search for more detailed climatic conditions or a more detailed study of ‘distance from services by locality’ study’. This meant the way in which each of the four elements were impacting the creation of the ‘remote’ boundary was inconsistent, especially when, by the fourth scale, the only piece of information that was more detailed from the original layer used, was that of the aerial image - this also happened to be one of more ‘subjective’ pieces of informative information (the extraction of an outline was determined by my eye, instead of a scientific analysis). While this is frustrating in the sense that it doesn’t feel like I saw out a ‘fair test’ in a sense, it does make for an interesting note to my conclusion. With the ‘remote’ boundary becoming in some ways more a ‘subjective’ construct, dominated by my personal visual interoperation, ideas of aesthetics and the image begin to speak to ideas of remoteness.

01. A Mind Map / Visual Collection - Part 01 Pieces of the collection are semi-curated, grouped and collated into thematics that have begun to emerge. Some pieces of the collection have been placed twice amongst more than one group as they relate to more than one theme. I place myself as the map maker in the centre. With peices of the collection placed either side of me, the idea of ‘binaries’ is foreshadowed.

A Mind Map / Visual Collection - Part 02 The layers within the center begin to thicken, with the ‘field’ of collection set up, the process of drawing out ideas begins. My self as the mapmaker, ‘Louella’, which sits in the center is now overlayed with a series of dualities that relate to myself as a person. The origins of my name, my two homelands, and my two star-signs suggest a sort of ‘sitting in the middle’.

03. A Mind Map / Visual Collection - Part 03 The layers across the field begin to thicken. Key themes emerge out of the collection and these are set up as a series of 13 dualities. These 13 dualities can also be grouped, collated into 5 thematic areas as some of the dualities relate more to one another. Key words 01: Chaos / Order, Spontaneous / Planned, The Singular / The Multiple, The Individual / The Collective, Observer / Participant, From Above / On the ground, Distant Recording / Embodied Experience, Material / System, Detail / Complexity, Moment / Infinite Possibilities, Bold / Minimal, Statement / Simple, Outrageous / Modest.

04. A Mind Map / Visual Collection - Part 04 Finally a fourth layer emerges. From these 5 groups of dualities, an interconnected web of ideas can be drawn out. Here, less directly related, or ‘random’ discoveries between pieces of the collection emerge. This process results in a second set of key words. This set of key words might be understood as ‘tools’ within which to approach the mapping. Key words 02: Sublime Encounter, Event, Surreal / Humorous, Sample, Mini Worlds, Per formative, Objects, The Circle, The Grid, Earth Tones, The Road, The Horizon.
