Cameron Hindrum uses poetry to explore what it means to people to live somewhere a little bit remote (such as an island)... and how that impacts on our belonging to that place, and our right leave that place.

Cameron Hindrum lectures in literacy and arts education at the University of Tasmania's Faculty of Education.

He has had a long involvement in Tasmania's literary affairs, as Chairman of the Committee of Management for the Tasmanian Writers Centre (2005-2008) and, since 2003, Director of the annual Tasmanian Poetry Festival. His first novel, The Blue Cathedral, was published by Forty South Books in November 2011, and two collections of poetry were published in 2012: Private Conversations Volume 1 (Another Lost Shark Publications) and Volume 2 (Walleah Press). He recently completed a Master of Arts in Creative Writing, for which he commenced work on his second novel.

In the spirit of ideas worth spreading, TEDx is a program of local, self-organized events that bring people together to share a TED-like experience. At a TEDx event, TEDTalks video and live speakers combine to spark deep discussion and connection in a small group. These local, self-organized events are branded TEDx, where x = independently organized TED event. The TED Conference provides general guidance for the TEDx program, but individual TEDx events are self-organized.* (*Subject to certain rules and regulations)
