Morning Monsters CD Launch

SATURDAY OCTOBER 27
Some local lads released their first compilation CD and celebrated in style with a big and enthusiastic crowd. I didn't arrive till after midnight and had to be back at work by 10am so my experience was brief but full! Here's the evidence...lol

Michelin Man

This mobile sculpture was an afternoon's project for a bush doof some months ago....I bought the air conditioning duct real cheap from a recycling joint in Brisbane a few weeks earlier and was just hanging [excuse the pun] to make something of it - well a few beers and some rope and a pair of pliers and voila!

The best part of this sculpture/mobile was that when the sound system was pumping, he actually began dancing in time with the music - it was a bit freaky but then I discovered some rascal on the end of the rope - hidden behind the trees - had quite a few people fooled bigtime!

He stands about 3.5 metres tall and looks pretty impressive in all his shiny glory!

About a week ago I met Paula - a photographer, architect and poet [amongst other things!] - and since then we shot stills and video to accompany her exhibition at gallery 37 in coffs harbour which closed today.

Unfortunately it was only up for a week but the opening on Saturday night was a blast, with quite a few new faces, some good wine, friends from Brisbane and some crazy footpath antics.....

As part of the exhibition we shot a series of time lapse stills [one every minute] which documented the installation [from bare gallery], the opening night, and the bump-out tonight.

This will end up edited down into a 3-5 minute sequence, to accompany the video screened during the exhibition, along with other selected photographs, transcripts of Paulas poetry, and whatever else takes our fancy - a kind of "virtual tour experience" of the whole process - from whoa to go so to speak. The final package will be a DVD with cover sleeve adorned with photos relating to each of the poems and the worded text.

If you're interested in purchasing one - drop me an email.

In the meantime - here's a few selected shots to whet your appetite.....or pique your curiosity...
