Not too long ago I visited a new digital/interactive art experience at a new gallery (only open a month or so ago) in Melbourne called 'The LUME'. Here I enjoyed many of the art works of Mr Vincent Van Gogh!

The Lady and the Unicorn
Hi all. I’m not usually big into getting to galleries, although I will try and get to one if I’m in a place for long enough. A couple of months ago I was in Sydney as you might remember, and I went to the Gallery of New South Wales. I will freely admit I went …
Rob Lloyd on his tour to the UK and… Innes Versus Lloyd
Today I’m once again chatting to Rob Lloyd, friend of the blog who recently returned from touring the UK touring his show ‘Who, Me’ to various spots around England and its neighbours. Last night I got to see Rob’s latest show, a totally improvised show with his good friend David Innes. It was an absolute …

Melbourne’s ACMI
I think there are several ACMIs around the world, and there has been one in Melbourne for many a year now, as part of Federation Square, and a few weeks back I took the opportunity to finally visit it for the first time. What is ‘ACMI’ I hear you say? It’s a museum for cinema …
A Tour of the Sydney Opera House
If there are three main images of landmarks that foreigners associate with Australia, I’m guessing they are Uluru, the Sydney Harbour Bridge and the incredible building that sits opposite it over the harbour just a tad, the Sydney Opera House. I visited at some point as a kid, I don’t really remember when exactly, but …
Totally Wizard!
Hi all! Today I’ve done a bit of an interview with Friend-of-the-Blog Rob Lloyd and his partner Caitlin. Why? Well it’s heading into Winter soon, but they’ve got a brand new show on ‘Wizard Actors – A Brief History of Magic’ next week in Melbourne. If you’re a Harry Potter fan, or a theatre fan, …
Lovely Ljubljana
The Slovenian capital is a rare gem. Not far from the Mediterranean, part of the old Yugoslavia, vibrant, full of energy and music, green and not nearly as well visited as many cities in Europe, it’s really the perfect city to visit to get away from the tourist trail in Europe and yet still be …

Invasion of the Body Snatchers at Melbourne Fringe
Hi everyone. The Melbourne Fringe Festival is on again! Friend of the Blog Rob Lloyd has another amazing one man show running this year, an adaptation of the 1955 book by Jack Finney. I thought I’d do a little post to plug his show. The setting is Santa Mira, and Rob portrays Dr Miles Bennel, …

Paris Through My Lens – Part Two
Again we're looking at Paris as I saw it a couple of months back now, but obviously a completely different set of pictures. Again I look into the Musee D'Dorsay - and particular a couple of paintings by Mr Vincent Van Gogh (one will mean a bit to Doctor Who fans out there!). Then there's …
