PATCHWORK DREAMING is a multimedia performance for an Ensemble of Musicians, Dancers, Electronics and a Bush-Poet (E. Mongrel), which explores the complexities of a local cultural heritage and Blackness in contemporary Australia. Narratives of identity and rediscovery are the stuff of this ‘patchwork’ of Australia’s multicultural experience. 
THE SOUND OF SPACES offers an immersive performance for a blindfolded audience. Featuring flute, melodica, voice, percussion and electro-acoustic soundscapes, the performance seeks to illuminate our understanding and experience of familiar and re-imagined sound worlds.
INTANGIBLE INSTRUMENTS features interactive works by performers, designers and researchers developing new instruments and exploring intersections between voice and movement. Expect the unexpected with innovations in performer-led embodied interface design, augmented vocal applications, wearables and wireless interaction.

We were upset to hear of Clayton Thomas's accident. The objective of this party is to celebrate Clayton and his family during his recovery back to playing again. We're delighted that many great musicians have offered their talents to the 'Back Breaking Party Night'. 
At this stage the plan for the night is to have two exciting quartets playing - with the likes of Matt McMahon and Jeremy Rose, Ben Carey playing alongside cool rising stars Sam Gill & Chloe Kim, Charlie Sundborn, Jon Hunter & Sebastian Sequoiah-Grayson from Now-Now festival.

Game On brings together musical mavericks Julian Day and Ensemble Offspring to explore performance practises derived from game theory and sport. Using everyday objects such as coins, planks of wood and bottles to create sound, they will establish modes of relating to each other through competitive physical challenges and cooperative strategies. Calling all spectators to play host to the musical winners and losers!
