Looks great! Some familiar names on that list too. I'm there...

WOW…! Sooo many Great Twmbar artists…

Yes its true Doug, and such a rich history of artist-run culture in Toowoomba, absolutely fascinating stretching back to Dancing Bear and who knows what else....

So many rich memories, thanks so much to all involved! 🔥

Looks great

Adam Wolter, Matt Mawson, John Willsteed. There is a downloadable PDF here: remix.org.au/RemixPDFPublications/ari-remix-issue-1-the-scene-issuu.pdf Issuu has made the download function a paid extra! But a self printed PDF is not really what you want... and me neither. There is a back story about this being originally produced as promotion and context for Peter Anderson’s Ephemeral Traces exhibition at Qld Uni. For various reasons the catalogue that Peter intended to accompany the exhibition did not eventuate. With Peter’s death last year I feel it may be time to reconsider the ARI publication to include an addendum of material related to the exhibition and to see if it would be possible to get some printed copies as well as the digital product. So I would appreciate some feedback about whether I should do it?

hello. thanks for reading this wonderful zine publication created by Brian Doherty and Jane Richens - the easily downloadable and accessible zine link is in this update fyi | remix.org.au/ari-remix-issue-1-the-scene-https-issuu-com-ari-remix-docs-ari-remix-issue-1-the-sce...

Oh and btw : if all goes well this week with current lockdown in SE Qld and the Backyard: Zine Fair goes ahead on Friday 6 August 6-9pm one night only I aim to have an actual hard copy of the ARI Remix zine at the table for viewing....its current form is full colour A3 86 pages in a folder....

When you coming up Paul Andrew? For Lasso?
