Neg.
dirt and scratches.
While I had the loan of a slide
scanner for a few days, I hunted out some old negs.and was prompted by the
Masters Apprentices footage on TV to produce the Howard Lindley piece

While
a photography student at RMIT, I made this record of Fitzroy pubs and street life
one night in 1967. The images were used in a feature piece in the
student newspaper, Catalyst |
Howard
Lindley was a writer, director and great Masters Apprentices fan . I
began shooting a feature for him, material from it has been used in the ABC 'Long
way to the Top - History of Australian Rock and Roll'. There's a
story behind it of course. |
Prime
Minister Harold Holt drowned before this sculpture would have been
cast.I photographed one of the 'sittings'. |
I
was in Rutherglen on a wet weekend in 1969, and visited nearby historic
Corowa. I don't remember the town at all and these photographs could
have come from a film set. A very strange afternoon. |
Domes,
pop festivals and moratoriums. The festival was Wallacia and very hippy,
my dome was cardboard and at Sunbury, and the whole creative department
of Clemenger Advertising left work to attend the marches. Management had
no choice but to grudgingly approve. |
