Wireless Australia and the Great Organisation
Wireless Australia built upon the division of AM wireless and ship communications. The group led by managing director BE Mick advanced broadcasts through new stations at Avantratin and New Cuthea, signaling a push to popularize wireless across Australia. Public demonstrations occurred in August 1920 at the Royal Society Sydney, with a broad concert in October at Melbourne’s Parliament House drawing large crowds.

Artistry and music lift motion pictures to refined art
The article argues that cinema has grown beyond simple spectacle to a major cultural industry. It highlights advances in production and exhibition, with music shaping mood and audience response. The piece notes American predominance, German censorship debates, and the rise of artistic presentation in theaters driven by public demand.
Growth of Musical Appreciation in Picture Theatres
The article argues that luxury music access remains limited to a few, but cinema venues broaden appreciation. It notes gramophones and wireless nets fail to reach all homes, while picture theatres in Auckland and Christchurch showcase Maurie Gutteidge’s orchestra and Ernest Jameson’s orchestra. It asserts music in film appeals beyond the cultured few, with public orchestras growing in Auckland. It warns that uninitiated audiences may not grasp Shaw but still enjoy performances, and that classical music can be appreciated with some education.
