hello all,
well this is it huh.Can i just say how sucky it is that we are never to have the "best" teacher again.waaaaaaaaa.
Thanks andrew,you are the super best-est.

okay Art and Australia.vol 43.no.1 2005. you know a little high end and all,but it looks nice and has tons of great pictures and is easy to read and look at.i like it and found tons of interesting things.
Anz emerging artist program: James Lynch.
James Lynch is this guy who does these beautifull handdrawn animations. He draws pics of friends and collegues and drops them into a video program with other textures like photos,text,pencil,watercolour. The ones talked about in the article are about dreams,so like dreams don't make lots of sense and are quite odd but thats good.
He is getting a powerfull reputation as a leader in animation but is also known for his drawings and instillations.
Sounds like one to look out for. these films look really excellent and lovely to look at. i like the mix of the drawings with real life back grounds.........

I also found an article on Candice Breitz who if you saw the video "mother" at the festival we all know is a legend.
i'll just give you a little flava.....
she was saying she's obsessed with the loop between lived life and fictional life and hollywood harvesting real life for iys plots. she has a film which i think is funny, based on "bennifer" j-lo and ben affleck. except she plays j-lo and j-lo becomes her. and some other works with real people (instead of footage of actors from films like in mother and the other one father)
performing their own versions of classic albums like micheal jackson.madonna.bob marley.
it seems from the article there is an australian artist doing simular video work.
Kate Murphy. she has one of a girl dancing to a britney spears song and others of her granparents.
anyhow this is getting a little long winded and my brain is very slow and tired so i will leave it for now.
i'll try to add a few pics later.

good work all.good luck or good skill as i like to say when its not a luck situation
with your projects. one year almost down.
