At work I park my car on the street and its only 2 hour parking, so I gotta check it periodically. Last night I dreamt my tyres were marked. And today they are marked. Freaky.
Of all my dreams that could come true, it had to be this one...
I believe Spooky is doing his show during the Sydney festival.
His latest project is somewhat integues, as is most things he does.
I would love to get his book-
Meanwhile, has anyone here ever eaten at idibidi's on Brunswick St? Just had dinner there with people from my old work. There is one crazy waiter there- nearly smacked me in the jaw with my plate. He goes flying around the place... crazy guy. Freaked me out a little.
By Pledger and Shaw
a Not Yet It's Difficult production
Eavesdrop is a new collaboration which pushes the limits of cinematic and theatrical imagination.
Created by interactive art and new media innovator Jeffrey Shaw and artistic director of not yet it's difficult David Pledger, this interactive installation offers audiences a new way to experience cinema.
Eavesdrop is a kind of jigsaw story puzzle. On a circular panoramic screen ten characters are forever doomed to repeat nine minutes of their lives.
The characters explore terrain that is at once spiritual, moral, ethical, psychological and physical. This ingeniously crafted artwork is driven by any member of the public who, as the user/director, reveals the secrets hidden in the interconnected stories.
Part game, part real-time film-making, part spectator sport, part magical realism, the experience allows audiences to eavesdrop on the conversations of ordinary life and go one step further than they might expect.

What sort of food is it? Recommend it?
It was ok, food was tasty... had the chicken salad... they have gourmet pizza, pasta, etc. reasonable prices. Nothing about it that makes me want to take others there in a hurry though (having said that, I would go back again if the occasion called for it). I was told they have a band there on the weekends though if you're into that.
