Artists performance event Town Hall Square Sydney Australia Mine Butterfly 1979
judged by Australian ARTISTS John Coburn Martin Sharpe Loyd Rees

Whymsical kinetic machines would move in the Town Hall Square in created whirl winds tunnelled through the grey walled canyons of the city, moving kinetic machines of transient flexability with attatched sails of a mylar reflective mirror that captured the surreal reflections of the cityscape in a lucid dream.
Desighned on an axis of probability the flexible mirror sail of mirrored reflections popped in and out
always changing its imagry of a city of mirrored walls as music played on endlessly of the droaning note, as sounds were recorded then played back on a tape machine at different speeds as the sad clown my voice sung palliarchi lost in this world accellerating at frantic speed to come where was the struggling flower in the crack of concrete where was the butterfly where was mine butterfly.

All the machines of a transient world have self destruct in the wild wild city wind of an accellerating future where are we going in our chaos as we travel on a bullet of light in black and white 01 00 Mine butterfly.

The music is fading the dream is over as most kinetic machines of transient poetry have self destruct in the wild wild wind that is channelled through the city of grey to the Sydney Town Hall Square in Australia
just one machine defiantly keeps on whirling until we are asked to pack up and leave. Like all machines we ask are you friend or foe Mine Butterfly performance 1979.

Almost every weekend I,d travell alone in my blue fiat to Hillend to take photo,s with my pentax fisheye lens.I won the Ansette ANA Poster Competition taking a photo of a white brumby gallopping at speed accross a spray of backlit mist at a creek that dripped with golden light from a Hillend Sky
This won me a trip to anywhere in Australia so I chose Thursday Island, at that time Thursday Island came under the Australian Territories.I found warm relationships on Thursday as I painted warm moonlit skies and warmth in Stella swimming in that turquoise of pastel blue.
