Paperback. Condizione: new. Paperback. Millers Point Songbook is a play, performed in the Garrison Church during May, and it tracks the lives and stories of the people of Millers Point, Sydney and the history of Sydney itself.In words and music, the characters of Millers Point come to life. Residents from Colonial times to the p…resent are portrayed, including Captain Grimes and Mary Underwood; Lieutenant Dawes and Patyegarang; Nita McCrae and Jack Mundey; and Myra and the residents of Sirius. The famous, the infamous, the colourful and the ordinary residents of Millers Point are brought to life in the Millers Point Songbook.In the telling of this story, the history of Australia's formation on the east coast is also told, in particular the changing economic conditions of Sydney, first through whaling, then wool, then property. Music and lyrics have been written by Joanna Weinberg, as well direction.Weinberg says: "One of the most interesting things about writing the Millers Point Songbook is that I didn't grow up with this history. It was all new to me, so I was coming at this with great curiosity and no 'cultural cringe.' Millers Point is a new name, coined during the early Colonial period and I have tried to acknowledge that by writing the opening song, 'Every Sunbed hides a Ghost.' When I arrived in this country I was shocked to see how little Aboriginal history was reflected in public places. That is changing somewhat now, and, while those are not my stories to tell, 'Every Sunbed' is a way of acknowledging the lost First Nations souls of the area before it was 'named.' In many of the history books I read, information about women and their roles in the neighbourhood was scant or simply absent. I have tried to address by writing as many songs as possible from a female perspective. "Millers Point Songbook features 24 songs which track the history of Sydney's colonial settlement in Millers Point, and its impact on the nation.

Hardcover. Condizione: new. Hardcover. **Shortlisted for the Cornish Family Prize for Art and Design Publishing 2018**Sirius is the extraordinary story of survival against the odds for one of Australia's most notable Brutalist buildings, and its community. The story of Sirius begins with the 1970s Battle for The Rocks and a Gree…n Ban, which saved an historic precinct and a community located around the Sydney Harbour Bridge. After four years during which there was no building activity, the Green Ban ended and agreement was made to build Sirius to serve the displaced members of the community. Architect Tao Gofers explains how the agreement was reached and how he designed a vertical village perhaps the last, and arguably the most successful, tower built for public housing in this era.By 2015, Sirius itself became the centre of controversy as the New South Wales Government sought to sell the building to developers and remove its public housing residents, forever changing the fabric of the local community and Sirius's original intention. Local Millers Point, Dawes Point and Rocks residents joined with hundreds of passionate advocates from across Australia including architects, professional bodies and the Historic Houses Trust, to protest against this change. The 'Save Our Sirius' campaign was born.Piper Press's beautiful book records not just a building and its remarkable architecture, but also the important social history of a unique public housing community and many of its individual residents. An extraordinary story of survival against the odds. Shipping may be from multiple locations in the US or from the UK, depending on stock availability.

Despite the apparent darkness of much of the work, it is also life-affirming, its own vitality in perverse distinction to the 'minefield of madness, badness and sadness' of global politics, world finances and the environment, which are the inspiration for Wrong Way Time and in turn provide the rich pickings for Fiona Hall's extraordinary transformation of materials, images and objects.
