part of State of Design Festival
Wednesday night, 20th July 2011
at ACCA, 111 Sturt St, Southbank
doors open 8:45pm, free entry
Brake, Break, Broke
Design that moves? Think putting on the brakes, think pause and stop, taking a break, think crashing, smashing, breaking, think broken, think going for broke. Design starts when we stop.
Our guest speakers include Nicklas Wallberg who through his organisation Tram Sessions encourages Melbourne artists and bands to perform on city trams, artists Sarah Barrow & Michelle Gordon who celebrate transformation and new beginnings in the guise of building and destroying piñatas, and Melbourne's best-loved cartoonist, poet, and whimsical cultural commentator Michael Leunig. The night will also feature: architects Jeremy McLeod and Ben Callery, fashion designer Liam Revell, researchers Jerome Frumar and Tim Schork, and inventor of hipDisk, Danielle Wilde.
As part of the audience, you will gather on the plaza created by Nathan Coley for his exhibition, Apperances at the Australian Centre for Contemporary Art for a great evening of conversation. Street food and locally-made craft beer will be on tap throughout the evening!
