# Conditional authentic media encounter

On Day 29, a verified maker’s own account can make the “why does media matter?” question real. This pack’s fictional geometric story **cannot stand in for a local maker**, a First Nations voice or a community interpretation. If no suitable work is authorised, use an adult’s original classroom paper work only to practise source questions and mark the authentic encounter **not held**.

| Educator field | Complete before presenting |
| --- | --- |
| Work, maker, first-party source and date | ______________________________ |
| Maker’s stated purpose, with exact source location | ______________________________ |
| Permission for classroom display and any restrictions | ______________________________ |
| Cultural authority and community guidance, if relevant | ______________________________ |
| Accessible description and no-device alternative | ______________________________ |
| Learner question; source-backed answer or honest unknown | ______________________________ |

If permission, provenance, maker statement or cultural authority is uncertain, do not display, download, copy, remix or narrate the work as authorised. Seek school/community advice. Follow [Creative Australia’s First Nations protocols](https://creative.gov.au/first-nations-arts/protocols-for-using-first-nations-cultural-and-intellectual-property-in-the-arts) and the specific custodian’s terms. Do not infer a whole community’s view from one object. The school-selected encounter is separate from the child’s original paper making and from any audience sharing.
