Rockin' For West Paupa 2017 - Audio Foundation October 7, 2017
Rockin’ For West Paupa 2017 – Audio Foundation October 7, 2017
To put it mildly, the world is in a bit of a state nowadays.

Bridge Burner – Audio Foundation July 29, 2017
This one is a freebie in more ways than one. As with all other performers at 95bFM’s bStreet Festival, Bridge Burner’s set was free entry.

We travel through Albert Park and have a walk through the gallery before heading over to K Road for dinner and second-hand book browsing. My show at Audio Foundation was certainly fringe. Lots of circuitry synths and a performance art group playing flowering pots, mannequins, homemade string planks, and shooting oranges at limp projectories from a cannon - with little old me closing out the evening before we bus back to Mount Wellington.

Nowhere Festival 2016 - Audio Foundation November 3-6
Nowhere Festival 2016 – Audio Foundation November 3-6
Dedee spent quite a bit of time at Audio Foundation’s Nowhere Festival 2016 last weekend. Here is her report: This three day festival – put on by the folks at Audio Foundation – only comes round every two years. Which makes it even more special. I planned to just review Saturday, but have a few notes on the first two nights as well. (more…)

Some more cool shots from the 7/1/16 JG Thirlwell / Cholera Nocebo show in Wellington, New Zealand at the Libel website. In Cholera Nocebo I perform in front of a projection filmed and edited by *gea. Thanks to all that came to the shows on my New Zealand tour, and to Jeff from Audio Foundation in Auckland for putting it together!
