You’re invited to take a seat at Melbourne's first No-Context Slide Nights.
Fabulous found vintage 35mm slides from everyday photographers are offered without narration or backstory. The story depends on you.

Our Slide Nights treasure the best bits of a mid-century staple — Kodachrome hues, communal viewing, the lo-fi glow of the original tech — swapping out tedious travelogues for dreamy live music. 

Each night, seeing the images for the first time, a different solo musician responds with a live, improvised soundscape.

Special Guest Artists:

 Oscar Toqui France  ·  piano and keyboards  ·  Saturday 16 May 

 Simon Bailey (Pony Face)  ·  guitar  ·  Saturday 23 May

 Alice Garner (Sunshine Tip, Xylouris Ensemble) · cello · Saturday 30 May 

With subjects spanning the domestic to the epic, and the 1950s to the ‘80s — come travel between sound and picture, nostalgia, memory and dreams.

Saturdays 16, 23 & 30 May  

Cross Street Music Hall, Brunswick East

Early show!  (6pm doors/ 6.30pm show)

Tickets via Humanatix $15/ $25 +bf  (Seating is limited)
