Eliza Donnithorne Doesn't Cry

Thank you to all who serenaded Eliza Donnithorne at Sydney's Camperdown Cemetery during Performance Space's Nighttime Twilight event! Below are some pictures of my karaoke installation. The karaoke video itself is below, too, so if you missed out you can still serenade in your own time...

 

Goodbye, CSIRAC

A huge thank you to everyone who attended Goodbye, CSIRAC (2012) at Melbourne Museum. The Ghost of Computers Past loved meeting you all.

Goodbye, CSIRAC - 2012 Next Wave Festival

Here are the details for my new show Goodbye, CSIRAC, opening this May in the 2012 Next Wave Festival. Tickets can be booked online here.

Goodbye, CSIRAC invites you to experience a retro sci-fi audio tour, leading you into the guts of the Melbourne Museum to uncover the true story of CSIRAC, “Australia’s first computer”. But watch out! As lights blink and paper tape whirrs, the forgotten history of female computer operators just might summon the mysterious Ghost of Computers Past… A love letter to 1960s computing and sci-fi, Goodbye, CSIRAC commemorates the things – and people – we forget when technologies become obsolete.
