Ridiculously busy

So in the life of a Consultant I have hedged my bets and when the last tender came through I realised that September/October are/were going to be busy months.

What with launching and setting up a framework for a new touring program called Sound Travellers to fundraising at the Zoo, not to mention my own concert series Places & Spaces and the Jazz:Now Festival.

So it was a mixed week of performances at the Opera House seeing jazz, interspersed with a penguin talk at the zoo. Having the chance to have a snake fun its tongue over my hand, amazing soft, sensitive quality and surpisingly snake skin is also nearly velvety soft.

Then it was running all the way to a music assembly for the Music Council of Australia, where as a bystander it was interesting to hear what is going on in their world.

A Busy week

Life if very busy at the moment, with lots of juggling trying to get projects moving forwards.

I am very absorbed by the Sound Travellers project which is to tour sound art/electronica, improvised jazz and contemporary classical music. There are so many possibilities, the question is how to source the money to fund it.

Then there is Places & Spaces with my Music @ the factory being launched on 1 November. It has been great because I have found all sorts of possible support from my colleagues at the Zoo!
Great how things connect.

The Chaser

There was a great version of the Chaser at the Zoo and of course the Canadian stunt was rather a good indication of how poor the security actually was vs how much posturing the police did this weekend.

Fine dining, music and fathers day

So a beautiful spring day for Father's day. Well I have to say my husband scored better than I do, he got waffles, strawberries and maple syrup, whereas I got some sad croissants I bought myself and had served without jam, just butter - not good for someone with high cholestral. Our daughter did a sterling job of chopping strawberries.

Saw my friend Joh Puglisi's first choreographic piece as part of Bodylines at NIDA. It was great to see her work, and even better that we liked it, so we could be honest when we said we liked it! That is something that always stresses me out when I see friends work.

Also saw the amazing Katie Noonan, what a voice, what a talent. If you can catch her on her current tour, make the effort. She is really special.

On the lighter side of life, this is a incredibly silly video, courtesy of surfing Youtube with my daugher!
