*art*music*film*

The idea of collaborating and creative sharing and inspiring has interested me lately.  The idea of a creative dialogue. I see the importance of this in strengthening the arts in our sport saturated society?...we need to work like a team!
 That's what I'm learning and observing and I think blogging has been a great tool in creating a community of collaborators.

*Glass: A portrait of Phillip in twelve parts* 
This beautiful documentary by Scott Hicks was on at the Cremorne orpheum last year. I went to see one of the screenings. There were 3 people in the cinema (including myself!). 
When I was leaving, an older lady sitting behind me thanked me for attending the film and went on to say '...this film has been on for only 2 weeks... and it's ending today with 3 people'

*Luminous*
I experienced last night. An inspiring collaboration between Richard Tognetti, Bill Henson, Katie Noonan and Paul Healy. 
It was amazing to come out of the theatre feeling creatively free and a little lightheaded(in a nice way!) from a sense of limitlessness. 
Bill Henson explains the project here.(from the music show, radio national 28/3/2009)

Lastly... my inspiration of the day, *Yayoi Kusama: I adore myself*


what more can I say...positivity positivity positivity!
