A Plastic Ocean Oratorio from Omar Musa and Mariel Roberts Musa, and a new Chapter for Guy Blackman
Omar Musa and Mariel Roberts Musa's collaborative performance work The Offering is subtitled 'A Plastic Ocean Oratorio'. For Musa, it is 'an offering of borderlessness in an archipelago of humanity'. It confronts the present – climate change, colonisation, personal histories – with an imagined future narrative through Omar's inimitable spoken word and Mariel's fearless cello, which we'll get a sneak preview of from the Riverside Theatres rehearsal room. Guy Blackman was a Pink Floyd-obsessed teenager living in Perth when he started a Syd Barrett fanzine which eventually morphed into the beloved indie record label Chapter Music. For 33 years the label has released albums by Australian bands and artists like NO ZU, Twerps, June Jones, Laura Jean, alongside reissues and compilations from international artists like Kath Bloom and Smokey. This year Guy is winding the label back, choosing to focus solely on reissues. He chats to Andrew about three decades of change in the music landscape, and about his new solo album Out Of Sight , which belatedly follows up his 2008 debut Adult Baby. And Andy remembers Alfred Brendel, the pianist who has died at the age of 94. The Offering is at Riverside's National Theatre of Parramatta 25 - 28 June. Out of Sight is out now via Chapter Music. Music heard in the show: Title: Piano Concerto No. 5 in E-flat Major, Op. 73 'Emperor', i. Allegro Moderato; ii. Adagio Un Poco Mosso Artist: Alfred Brendel, Vienna Symphony Orchestra/Zubin Mehta Composer: Ludwig van Beethoven Album: The Legendary Mozart & Beethoven Recordings Label: Brilliant Recordings Extracts from The Offering written and performed by Omar Musa and Mariel Roberts Musa Title: Let Me Let You Let Me Down Artist: Guy Blackman (feat.

The Bachelorette Aus star Georgia Love set for seven-figure move
Former Bachelorette couple Georgia Love and Lee Elliott's bayside house will head under the hammer with $1.5m-$1.58m price hopes on Saturday. The ex-pair, who announced their split earlier this year, are selling the four-bedroom home at 63A Wickham Rd, Hampton East. A newsreader on the Australian Radio Network, which owns Melbourne stations KIIS FM and Gold FM, Ms Love met Mr Elliott on The Bachelorette's 2016 season. 'Hectic' bidding war pushes Hampton East home $268k over reserve The Bachelor Australia: Inside the mansions and its sell offs Also a podcaster and writer, Ms Love has worked as a journalist across Australia's commercial television networks and on A Current Affair, Studio 10, The Project and Today. Public records show that she and Mr Elliott purchased the house in 2021, the same year they were married. According to PropTrack, the abode will be one of 910 Victorian residences set to be auctioned this week. The home features an open-plan living and dining space with twin bi-fold doors that open to a shaded entertainer's area including an outdoor barbecue kitchen. Siemens appliances and a waterfall-edged island bench are showcased in the indoor kitchen. The main bedroom has its own dressing room, balcony and dual-vanity ensuite. Other highlights of the 2015-built home include a freestanding bath in the main bathroom, Tasmanian oak floors, blockout blinds, double-glazing and a double garage. Hodges Sandringham director Angus Graham said that about 30 buyer groups, mostly couples, had inspected the house prior to Saturday. 'I think it's extremely well-built, with hydronic heating and really well-sized and spacious large rooms with high ceilings,' Mr Graham said. 'It ticks a lot of boxes for many people.' Another house heading under the hammer this weekend is a Victorian-era, three-bedroom pad at 1 Peel St, Newport, with a $1m-$1.05m asking range. The Agency Williamstown property partner Noah Lautman-Wurt said that more than 100 groups had inspected the property, that would likely require work including re-levelling and replastering. 'It has been attracting all sorts of buyers, first-home buyers, those upgrading from their first home, builders and would-be renovators,' Mr Lautman-Wurt said. Victoria recorded a 67 per cent clearance rate from last week's auctions.

Alice Springs Beanie Festival draws a crowd with 7,000 woolly creations on display
It took almost half a decade for Tim Henderson to sweep up and collect enough of his dog's fur to craft a woollen hat. The Alice Springs eye specialist had made a "mad suggestion" to one of his patients to collect his pet's hair, to make it into a beanie. When his patient passed away, Mr Henderson felt he had to keep his promise. "She told me I had to do that. So in her honour and memory, I did," he said. After years of collecting, knitting, and trial and error, Mr Henderson's beanie, made entirely from his dog's fur, is on display this weekend — among almost 7,000 unique creations — at the Alice Springs Beanie Festival. The quirky beanie festival was born from humble beginnings in 1997, in the remote Indigenous community of Yuendumu in Central Australia. The aunt of Jo Nixon, the organiser of this year's event, had been making beanies with the women in the tiny — at times, freezing cold — desert community while holding an English workshop. She would return to Alice Springs later that year with almost 100 hats. Not knowing what to do with them all, Ms Dixon said her aunt chose the obvious route and held a party. "We hung these 100 beanies from the roof … and we invited all of our friends and had a band and made pumpkin soup," Ms Nixon said. "We sold out of beanies within an hour." She said from there it "snowballed", growing into an official festival that now attracts thousands of people from across the country over three busy days. While knitting has had a recent resurgence in popularity among younger people, finding a new generation of volunteers to run the festival has been difficult. "We're victims of our own success," Ms Nixon said. Ms Dixon said next year's festival, which will be the 30th event, is expected to be the last ever, unless someone else comes forward willing to carry it on. Joy Downs, who travelled from Moss Vale in the Southern Highlands of NSW to Central Australia exclusively for the beanie festival, said she was devastated the event was coming to an end. "I get a lot of alpaca fleeces which I turn into beanies, and I thought I just had to come up and have a look because it's just such a unique [festival] that I hadn't heard of before," she said. Deb Taylor Thompson, a previous festival winner and volunteer who made two warm hats this year, has been knitting since she was four. She said it was unlikely the art of knitting would die out, as she was seeing younger people take up the craft, motivated by its therapeutic benefits. "I teach a lot of people … and knitting is becoming a much more popular trend in parts of Melbourne," she said. Ms Nixon, who's been at the helm of the beanie festival from day one, said she still couldn't believe how the once-niche gathering had grown into a widely celebrated event. "There is a joy in wearing a beautiful beanie and walking into the supermarket and people saying 'are you wearing an Alice Springs Beanie Festival beanie?'," she said. "Beanies are a wonderful way of wearing a piece of art."
