SYDNEY FESTIVAL. A few items of interest are: T_Visionariums where "a
constellation of video streams responds to your whim, spinning a
fascinating narrative made up of over 20,000 clips from Australian
television broadcasts. A kind of visual search engine using the
latest advances in multimedia database technologies and high-volume
video streaming...you are literally surrounded by hundreds of clips
moving in 3 dimensions over a curved screen...opens the door to a whole
new future of viewer-image interaction." (Not sure I understand it
either, but it sounds intriguing. EH.) FREE event held at the
Scientia Building at University of NSW, Kensington, between 11am -
6pm, (free tours at 11 am.) Mon-Fri, Jan 9-13, 16-20, 23-27 The

DONKEY LIBRARY: I work in a library. I like donkeys. Sponsoring an
Oxfam Unwrapped donkey library seemed ideal, but at $2,677 also
unaffordable! So I mentioned it on a library e-mail list, and a few
people started saying "What a good idea!" Michelle McConachie set up
a bank account and an Oxfam donation pool, and I spread the word
wherever I could, including last month's Bullsheet, because raising
that kind of money by 31st December 07 (our self appointed deadline)
seemed an impossible task. I'm pleased to inform you that by 24th
December I was informed we'd raised over $4,000! Oxfam gets the lot!
We'll invest the leftover funds in other Oxfam Unwrapped items such
as literary lessons. Thanks to everybody who contributed to this!
Edwina.
ANOTHER WANT: (Ted, please don't read!) If anyone has or knows of a
copy of a book for sale (at a reasonable price!) by Richard
Ratcliffe called Australia's Master Gardener, Kangaroo Press, 1990,
could they please contact Edwina at edwinfan@yahoo.com with details.
I'm looking to purchase a copy to give to a good friend.
