Lets do this ting

Let's Do This Ting is more than just a blog, it's a challenge, a chance to enrich my artistry outside of work. The rules are; I must create three things, be they design, drawings, paintings, photography or clothing and secondly, I have to post it. Let's hope for both your sake and mine that this works out. Let's Do This Ting.

Menstra vaganza! Menstravaganza is a localized event for the charity and cause 'Menstrual Hygiene Day International', for both women and men. menstrualhygieneday.org Menstrual Hygiene Day serves as a neutral platform to bring together individuals to create a united and strong voice for women and girls around the world, helping to break the silence around menstrual hygiene management. The event will help to address the challenges and hardships many women and girls face during their menstruation, but also to highlight the positive and innovative solutions being taken to address these challenges. The day catalyses a growing, global movement that recognises and supports girl’s and women’s rights and build partnerships among those partners on national and local level. It is an opportunity to engage in policy dialogue and actively advocate for the integration of menstrual hygiene management (MHM) into global, national and local policies, programmes and projects. It also creates an occasion for media work, including social media. We will be running four workshops simultaneously that tackle these issues and work as platforms to discuss the topic. (half an hour at each workshop).

Sydney trio Loose Change have a video for their brand new one, ‘Yes or No’, and we’re tickled pink to be exclusively premiering it today.

On this one, the dudes rope in the services of Betty Grumble, the child-beauty-queen-gone-wrong alter-ego of performance artist Emma Maye, who stars as a disenchanted council worker who spends her days raking ciggie butts in the park. That is, of course, until Loose Change MCs Rapaport and Ellesquire rock up in a cool old ice cream truck, blaring their soulful hip-hop cut out into the world, and empowering Betty to cast off her shackles (and overalls) in a wonderful expression of movement, colour and totally infectious joy.

Says director Jeremy Graham:

“I wanted to create a fun and engaging film clip that highlights amazing talent from Sydney’s underground performance art scene, and we thought this would be a great opportunity to collaborate.”

Produced by creative collective Paper Moose, the video for ‘Yes or No’ is a real winner. Which is fitting, because the song itself, with that slick production and smooth-as-shit chorus, is all kinds of killer.
