Groundswell Avant-Garde Auckland 1971-79

 

I won't be able to make it to the Auckland City Art Gallery on December 7th, but would love to see old Mildura/Trans-Tasman Tie up alumni there: Phil Dadson, Matt McLean, David Mealing and Gray Nicol. Also Bruce Barber and Billy Apple. Wishing everyone a great opening and show.

Dolphin Kicks Cactus Pricks and K-129

The true story, rewritten for 2018, of how I travelled to Mexico with a bunch of psychics and what happened when events went cactus pear shaped. I rescued the wife of a Navy SEAL, a Greenpeace activist and a hippie left over from the Haight Ashbury days as we struggled to cross the border back in the U.S. of A. And yes there is a K-129 connection with a classified Congressional Medal of Honor Medal included. 32 pages - about an hour read.

The short story is available on Amazon Kindle for 99 cents or free on Kindle Direct.

Reading about Proust, not Proust

Reading "How Proust can change your life" by Alain De Botton. He refers to the All England Proust Summarize Proust Competition by Monty Python. What better way to summarize Proust?   All England Summarize Proust Competition .

You have to love a writer who writes seriously and perceptively about Marcel Proust then quotes Monty Python.
