Cross town traffic at Fortune Grey

Cross town traffic

New issue of Oyster’s out.

‘Dark Meets Light’ issue. Not sure what that’s got to do with our mate Moxey who features in the above four-page spread.

But among the pretty girls, Ksubi and Modular features, and a piece on British hardcore, there’s also my interview with NY music writer Simon Reynolds. Sticking with the issue theme, it picks up on the black/white cross-pollination/miscegenation theme that strings its way through his latest book, Bring the Noise.

Should be online before long, but it’s in newsagents now.

Hello, we did meet at the Hollywood a few weeks ago. I look forward to reading the Reynolds interview in print.

Small changes for a greener city (City News)
"Sydney could save $185 million in energy costs over five years by adding green roofs to city buildings. And it can be done with simple changes to planning guidelines, according to a report prepared for the City of Sydney Council."
The Long View (Metropolis)
"By embracing the city’s industrial past—reclaiming landfills, remediating brownfields, developing neglected waterfronts—James Corner has helped reinvent the field of landscape architecture."

"we are extravagant in the bashment." Thanks to The Wire. Essential listening.
Postal trivia (Darlinghurst Nights)
"To anyone who has ever wondered what those green boxes are that are frequently, but not always located adjacent to red post boxes…"
Post no bills (Darlinghurst Nights)
"They’re pasted over and over and over each other. Posters for club nights, motivational speakers and politicians, and other things. And like many other cities, Sydney council’s been battling them for years." Now the council’s banned pole posters, threatening a $1500 fine per poster (they’ve also banned the guys who clean your windows while you’re waiting at the lights).
