Ever wanted to be a lyrical vandal but knew you weren’t cut out for actual graffiti?
Melbourne’s spoken word performers have overcome the complications of spray paint and precarious legality to leave their mark on the CBD, mapping the city in poetry. They’ve created audio paste-ups of epic loves lost, recorded their hearts and left their stories like invisible murals against the city walls. Supported by the City of Melbourne, these audio poems will be launched as a part of the Melbourne Overload Poetry Festival 2010. Performers include: Alicia Sometimes, Steve Smart, Ezra Bix, Eleanor Jackson, Randall Stephens, Bella Li, Meaghan Bell, James Jackson, Maurice McNamara, Anna Fern, John McKelvie, Lish Skec and Maxine Clarke. More details here.

Photography night walks will be held every Thursday and Sunday from 6.30pm - 8.30pm at different locations in the Melbourne CBD. Each Thursday will be followed by the screening of that nights works immediately after at Loop from 9.00pm. All levels of experience welcome. Night Walk cost $15 - Just bring yourself and your camera and come to Loop afterwards for instant visual gratification and a warm drink.
