The Vibe of the Thing Water. A necessity of life as we know it, it serves as both a cradle for civilisation and a repository of untold stories. This team is dedicated to exploring the intricate and fascinating connection between environmental and cultural heritage, with a special focus on the human connection to the ocean and waterways.

Our mission is to find, explore and record the stories hidden beneath the waves and within the landscapes, shedding light on the intricate relationship between people and their surroundings, and giving this knowledge back to the community. After all, stories are part of identity.

Our team of specialists possesses a diverse range of skills and experience that transcend geographical boundaries, allowing us to tackle archaeological projects of a global scope. Australia is a rich tapestry of cultures and international connections that began thousands of years ago and ripple through to our present day. The boundary between land and sea is often more blurred than we realize - our investigations and passion for exploration and storytelling take us from sea to land and the digital 3D space, using all the tools at our disposal to make this work available and accessible to all.
Strive to find and nurture the connection between nature and cultural heritage - these are inextricably linked and must always be considered together.
