Behind the Scenes 23rd December 2024

How does a dancer and choreographer end up as both a doctor and a highly successful music event promoter? Best we ask The Sound Doctor, David Corbett when he drops in for a chat.

How many artworks can you see at Linden New Art’s annual Postcard Show and how can you get an audio described tour of the exhibition? Best we ask Linden New Art Curator Hamish Sawyer.

How do you capture the magic of an Alison Lester book in a live performance on stage? Best we ask the creative mind who adapted Imagine Live from her book Imagine – Jolyon James.

And who is Canada’s premiere Aboriginal Funk Rock Recording Project? Best we ask RJ Martine from Joyslam.

Behind the Scenes 16th December 2024

Kim Marriot leads the Monash Assistive Technology and Society Centre at Monash Uni and has an ongoing interest in the way data visualisation can be sued by people who are blind or have low vision. That’s why there’s a chapter about it in the book he’s just written – The Golden Age of Data Visualisation: How Did We Get Here?

 

Meanwhile, in Japan, singer/songwriter Laurier Tiernan (who we met some time ago as one half of the group Nature Airliner) has just released Descending, a new album – except that it’s not really – it’s actually his very first solo album re-released after twenty years.

Back in Naarm/Melbourne it’s time for our annual visit to the Koorie Art Show with Gail Harradine at the Koorie Heritage Trust and we’re also just in time to get excited about a Very Koorie Kristmas…

And speaking of Christmas, the Victoria Chorale and the Art of Sound Orchestra are about to head into St Paul’s Cathedral for their Christmas Celebration and Conductor Dr Mario Dobernig returns to the show to tell us what he’ll be conducting…
