26th January is Australia Day. Make some art to celebrate this day – maybe you might remix the flag in DS106 fashion or make a gif from the film of the same name.

    Since I know very little of Australia Day, I spent some time, learning a bit. Here are some of the names of this day that have been used over time, reflecting the tension of history:

    Australia Day
    Anniversary Day
    Regatta Day
    Queensland Day
    Foundation Day
    Day of Mourning
    Invasion Day
    Survival Day
