The first French show on our Australian east coast tour titled ‘Altar of Invocation’ opens on the 3rd of November.

This is what jetlag looks like.

We are to embark on a camping trip to Melbourne next week.
So Z’s will be valuable.
Get em while you can.

Bit of a late post about Mark’s C90 homage to the humble cassette. A concept type show, we went down to stifle the set-up process.

We took a few drinks for Gids last week, and when I left I walked through the Botanic Gardens. Feeling reflective I saw this and smiled.

In conjunction with China Heights, Oxford Art Factory is proud to present Edward Woodley’s new installation, the ‘Damnation of Demokratia’.
The Art & About incentive, ‘Little Oafy’, set’s the stage for this exposition on Oxford St. Darlinghurst, Sydney.
The exhibition opens Tuesday night, October 21st, from 6:30pm – 9pm, and continues daily, until October 26th.
‘Little Oafy’ is located at 58 Oxford st, Darlinghurst.

Got this email this morn. Titled “Oh-No-It’s-Joe”!

Wanted man living in Elizabeth Bay read the sign. Carries a concealed weapon at all times.
Oh, why must I always be the persecuted!
thx JZ! Good to have you back.

What can I say that would do a man such as he justice? I don’t have the English for it.
You will be missed by so many, Gideon.
You are a truly beautiful human.
Your gold will never rust.
P.S. Stole this photo from DL.

The Changes @ MU
October 31 through December 14
Opening October 31 from 08.00 pm onwards
With special guest dj Thomas Bullock and live
set The Changes
Dress code: Halloween

The Changes are Roland Korg, Boohoo Haha, Aries
Overload, and Vertical Doorway. To those who don’t
know these names as yet, I’d say, think of Misha
Hollenbach and Shauna T, better known as Perks&
Mini from Melbourne, Fergus Purcell from London,
better known as Fergadelic, and Sk8thing from Tokyo.
The exhibition is accompanied by a special catalogue
published in collaboration with Nieves and PAM Books,
and a unique edition of T-shirts.

A collective as a band, a band that’s not making
music but applying itself to image sampling and mixing.
That’s who The Changes are. ‘The Times they are
The Changes’, to paraphrase Bob Dylan, and so music
leaves the field for image, film and – yes, a bit of –
sound. After gigs in Milan, Tokyo, and Los Angeles,
The Changes are now ready for a European tour,
which kicks off at MU. Their overpowering image
concert promises to be a mixture between a psyche -
delic campfire and a mysterious advertising pillar.
Departing from backgrounds in fashion, graphic
design, pop, and art, the four band members have for
a couple of years now applied themselves with sincere
commitment and boundless passion for association
to the magic of the autodidactic underground. In their
interventions, the influence of and the experience with
the CULTural explosions of the ‘80s and ‘90s - rave,
metal, acid, punk, freak-out, rainbow, black, silver, gold,
latex, leather, and denim - merge into a redefinition of
the present, a joyful, comic explosion, pulsating with
energy and positivism.

Kool Keith: They’ll marry a guy with AIDS because they don’t care. It’s the morals of the world. That’s why the babies are ugly. All the kids are genetically fucked up right now because of the matchmaking. You look at Ebony and Jet, all these magazines, all the people getting married are old looking and ugly. You know, I’m deep. My genetic cultures is deep also. It’s around the world. Women trade eggs and sperm with the most ugliest motherfuckers and the ugliest girls sleep with the ugliest guys and that produces an ugly baby. Every baby ain’t pretty in a stroller, that’s the truth. You look in the strollers and some of the kids are ugly. Hey, I got no animosity towards children, but that’s the way the world is going.
