Meet John Kilduff
John Kilduff is one of the world’s special creatures. Through his online television program Let’s Paint TV, he teaches you, the viewer, how to paint, blend drinks, and keep yourself healthy all whilst jogging on a treadmill. Kilduff believes in breaking down the barriers between art and pretty much everything else, in the ultimate aim of embracing failure.A grand exercise in multitasking, John Kilduff’s Let’s Paint TV is coming to Electrofringe for a series of special live performances. Combining performance art, exercise equipment, music and of course paint, this is one spectacle not to be missed.
THANK YOU
Thankyou from us
A massive thank you to our artists, performers and presenters for their energy, effort and passion; our volunteers and workers who make this amazing event happen; our beautiful TINA family including SS, NYWF, CA, Crack and Ange; our presenting partners who help us fill in all those gaps, especially Genevieve, Bethany and Grace at icon.pr; Lawrence English, Richard Vella, Simone at Arthive, everyone at Performance Space and dLux Media Arts, and the Electrofringe Board members and funding bodies. Special thanks to our friends, families and partners for their boundless assistance especially to Kate Byrne, Christian Malejka and Melody Ellis. Finally thank you; for coming and giving us a reason to endure the craziness.
Somaya’s thankyous
Firstly to Christian Malejka for all that listening at such a distance, Miranda Lee for joining the Electrofringe board, Zanny Begg for the very occasional dumpling meet-up, Melody Ellis for all the grant writing assistance and for always letting me stay and Jodi Rose for more long distance skype listening.
To my friends Melissa Penrose, Jasmine Guffond, Marisa Cartland, Edda Mann and Maria-Eleni Alesandre – for still being my friends despite never ever hearing from me. To my 2009 flatmates Sumu Sivanesan, Wade Marynowsky and George Khut – for somehow understanding my complete lack of sociability and my constant need to sit in an attic in front of a laptop to pull this festival off.
To all the people and organisations who have done so many favours for me. There are many of you – I owe you all many beers.
Finally, to Daniel Green, the Electrofringe Board and all the many volunteers, whom without, this would not be happening.
Daniel’s thankyous

electro-projections at camera obscura, sydney
This coming Monday 13th April 2009, a special selection of works from the 2008 Electro-Projections program will be screened before an unsuspecting audience at Serial Space in Chippendale, as part of the return of Camera Obscura – Sydney’s premiere evening of moving image curiosities and other wonderful things…
The program will be followed by a screening of Victor Sjöström’s classic silent horror film from 1921 “The Phantom Carriage”, featuring a new soundtrack recorded by dark wave noise meisters KTL (Stephen O’Malley of SUNN O))) & Peter ‘Pita’ Rehberg). What a perfect way to cap off the Easter long weekend!
It all goes down this Monday, the 13th of April, starting from 19:00 at Serial Space – 33 Wellington Street, Chippendale, Sydney (map) . It’ll finish around 22:00, which is plenty of time to be in bed on a school night! For more information on Camera Obscura, drop a line tocameraobscura.syd@gmail.com
