A very old blog piece from me, about a favourite Aussie band, featuring a photo of (a section of) the N-P section of my CD collection - & yes, I've still got all of those:

It seems remiss that after 2 years of writing this blog, I’ve not yet written about one of my favourite Australian bands, Not Drowning Waving (NDW). Well, today I’m going to fix that.

If you missed our concerts at the weekend… this is what you missed 😍

The beautiful 2nd movement from Bigaglia’s Concerto for Mandolin. It’s really for oboe, but there isn’t much surviving mandolin rep so we’ve pinched it and the mandolin sounds lush. ❤️

Re @meanjin.bsky.social - I keep thinking about a quote in "Let this Radicalize You" (@haymarketbooks.org ) from poet Diane di Prima: "The war that matters is the war against the imagination / all other wars are subsumed in it." It appears UniMelb are waging that war. @beneltham.bsky.social

Just tried to listen to an audiobook while not doing anything else. Not cleaning or walking or driving, just sitting there. Feels absolutely demented.

Did more for movies in Australia than most, fought censorship with Margaret, loved bloody good movies, ran film festivals, and titled his autobiography ”I Peed On Fellini”. Legend.

Thrilled to be published in Backstory, a Swinburne Uni journal "with a loose theme of history." I love a loose theme of history! Inspired by Kosmos (an installation by Eva Rothschild) & the Avoca landscape. 📷 :me
