Have you met my friend Ruben? He hails from New York, but I usually catch him hanging around Albert Lane at lunch time. He's a salty fellow, shifty about his origins; I've heard he's German-Irish and though he tells me he was born on the streets of the Bronx, sometimes I can detect a hint of Nebraskan in his dulcet tones.
Hey listen up, there's something magical that occurs when two ARI's come across each other in strange cities. It's like there's some invisible erratic livewire that's welding the two together across the time/space continuum. It's happening all around the country! Around the whole world - oh internet, you.

It's hard to pull off real time synaesthesia - unless synaesthesia means standing there giving your guitar a heavy-petting while the drummer cuts sick with a hefty Chesire cat smile. The process of communicating visually what is occurring aurally just isn't that damn simple, but Robin Fox pulls it off.

Stelarc talk
Where:
QUT Art Museum, 2 George St, Brisbane
When:
Thurs May 13, 6pm
How much:
Free
Description:
Ever seen the picture of the Vacanti mouse? Yeah, well Stelarc did that to his arm. Unlike Wim Delvoye's exploits with those Louis Vuitton pigs, Stelarc utilizes his own body for artistic and scientific investigation. All I can say is that this guy is extreme. Yeah, maybe he watched too many clone movies as a childhood pariah, but who knows - this guy could save the freaking world.

Cubby Hole, 235 Edward St, Brisbane City
When:
Thurs May 13, 8pm-12am
How much:
$5
Description:
TTT, formerly known as Tic Toc Tokyo are animals. There's a part in that movie Julian Donkey Boy where Herzog's character is screaming "be a man and quit that moody brooding" while spraying cold water on his son - TTT are the musical equivalent to the gamut of emotion felt while watching this scene.
