Undergrowth & Dislocated.org present the Melbourne launch of the first Nomadology book at St Jeromes on Thursday 23rd November.
From documentary-making in the central Australian desert to cruising the red light districts of New Delhi, Nomadology is a diverse and challenging selection of new writing by young Australians on the nature of travel in a globalised world.
The book takes a selection of the best stories, articles and photos from this site and presents them as a beautiful, limited-edition pocket-book published by Undergrowth.org.
βItβs a great idea and it works. As a collection of blogs, the writing is fresh, personal, and accessible ... Undergrowth have also done well in their selection of contributors. They are sensitive and intelligent, able to draw out the interesting political / social / moral nuances of their experiences.β - The Program
From 6pm this thursday, St Jeromes will come alive with readings and photography projections from the book. Come along and hear stories on everything from hitch-hiking across the USA with a pyromaniac gulf-war veteran to body-bagging in Thailand after the tsunami.
Following this, the night will continue with music from the amazing Uber Lingua Sound System. Featuring back-to-back DJs, live performances and a host of local and interstate guest MCs, Uber Lingua brings a multi-lingual flavour with mutated international hip-hop, gypsy dub, bar-mitzvah electronica, Middle-eastern, Latin and Aboriginal beats.
Details:
Thursday 23rd November 2006 at St Jeromes, 7 Caledonian Lane, 6pm β late.
With readings from 7-8pm featuring: Rak Razam, Nicolas Low, Phil Smith, Dominic Allen, Sam Hoffmann and Tim Parish.
Tunes till late by Potato Masta, Mashy P, Trevor Brown (Gypsy Dub Sound System) and DJs: bP (RRR), Monkey Marc (Combat Wombat), Raceless (Curse Of Dialect), Sakamoiz and many more.
