Adelaide Road Trip
For the two weeks, I’ve been on the road with a friend to Adelaide and back. Included were a trip to Kangaroo Island, Port Lincoln and the Adelaide Hills. It was a good, relaxing trip, but now I have to get back to work.

Out of Town
So I’ve been out of town. Most of my time was spent reacquainting myself with both Melbourne and Hobart, along with seeing art galleries and a road trip across Tasmania. Melbourne was fun. I spent a lot of time at the National Gallery of Victoria, RMIT’s Art Gallery (the Elision Ensemble show was especially good)…

Other Worlds Zine Fair
The Other Worlds Zine Fair was on again for a third year running. It began as the protest zine fair against one of the sponsors of the MCA. And both were run on the same day in previous years. But not this time. Great for me really, because running between two concurrent fairs is exhausting.…

Brisbane Trip
So I spent the last week visiting family and a couple of friends in Queensland. And take some time out to draw and write some things. I was also in Brisbane and took a few photos of the headline exhibition at QAG and GOMA – The Asia Pacific Triennial of Contemporary Art. The show features…

Sydney
Last weekend I went to Sydney to hold a table for the ACT Comic Meet at the Manly Zine Fair. I went a day early to check out the Friends of Leon Gallery to check out the Justyna Kisielewicz exhibition that just opened. However, I didn’t get any photos, because there was an official photoshoot…

Brisbane
I recently spent time up in and around Brisbane catching up with friends and family. It was a crazy week of camping, mosquitos, idyllic island life, mad long cycling commutes, kayaki, protesting about kayaki, and dragging a kayak through low tide mangrove mud. It was also art galleries, decent food, obscenely warm days, board game…

Head 2 Head Zine Fairs
Last year, I went to two zine fairs in one day. The Other Worlds Zine Fair was organised in protest against one of the sponsors (being Transfield [Services/Holdings] who also manage the Nauru and Manus Island detention centres) backing the MCA, and thus the zine fair. I had to see both, because it is pointless…

Trip Log 7: Return
It’s been a long flight. My trip ended a couple of days ago. We had returned the car, and the energy that carried along the coast of this country had eventually left us. We had three days left in Reykjavik, but Josh and I were just spending our time counting them out. I spent the…

Trip Log 4: The North
The Museum of Icelandic Witchcraft and Sorcery was interesting and something I will address in further detail later. Afterwards, Josh and I rode up to Hotel Laugarhóll, a farm hotel, with as it would happen also featured the Sorceror’s Cottage. The cottage is a replica medieval cottage, made from driftwood, mud brick and a turf…
