Sydney below the Surf/ace
http://sydneybelowthesurface.blogspot.com/2015/06/photos-of-rides-people-ferries-coming.html
Monday, 15 June 2015. Photos of the rides, the people, the ferries coming in, the views, everything…. Posted by Jos Boys. Subscribe to: Post Comments (Atom). Welcome to Sydney below the Surf/ace. As an outsider - only here for a year - I want to capture those small everyday differences that make this place what it is, and see a side to the city that is more than its tourist image of sun, beach and surfing - although, of course, I will be looking at those things too. Partying like there is no tomorrow.

Sydney below the Surf/ace: the view, the view
http://sydneybelowthesurface.blogspot.com/2015/07/the-view-view.html
Thursday, 2 July 2015. The view, the view. Finding it tough not to continually take photos from K's living room as the view across Elizabeth Bay is not only what is best about Sydney but also changes all the time in the most magical way. Easy to spend considerable time just staring out the window. Posted by Jos Boys. Subscribe to: Post Comments (Atom). Partying like there is no tomorrow. The Beast (Eastern Suburbs).

Sydney below the Surf/ace: and one more
http://sydneybelowthesurface.blogspot.com/2015/06/and-one-more.html
Sunday, 14 June 2015. Have to mention the Shanghai Museum. Because China is so central to the production of 21st century technology, everyone I knew assumed that technology would be rampant. Well it is and it isn't. The government blocking of everything from Google to Dropbox is making usage patchy (or based only on Chinese apps). Or - like some of the students I talked to - blocking turns out to be a pretty dumb solution since you can just get a VPN. Posted by Jos Boys. Labels: art and culture. Simple t...

Sydney below the Surf/ace: back to cockatoo

Monday, 15 June 2015. Glamp on the island, and to hire a tinny* from there. Tinny - Australian slang for a little aluminium boat, usually with an outboard on the back. Posted by Jos Boys.

Sydney below the Surf/ace: vivid
http://sydneybelowthesurface.blogspot.com/2015/06/vivid.html
Monday, 15 June 2015. Made a plan to come back on the ferry from Manley after dark to see Vivid. Around Circular Quay; lots of light installations and projections onto buildings (including the Opera House). Of course incredibly crowded and the folks pretty jet-lagged, but did enjoy extraordinary series of animations onto the Customs House, entitled enchanted Sydney. Posted by Jos Boys.

Sydney below the Surf/ace: secret walks
http://sydneybelowthesurface.blogspot.com/2015/07/secret-walks.html
Thursday, 2 July 2015. Took an amazing all day walk. These all overlook the south shores of central Sydney - so very much part of the city - but surprisingly quiet, and with bays mainly all to myself. With Banished. And the Secret River. Both currently being shown on TV here, the coastal bush landscape (although much domesticated) still echoes of its small but distinctive differences from the previous worlds of British and Irish-born settlers and convicts.

Sydney below the Surf/ace: dive-bombers
http://sydneybelowthesurface.blogspot.com/2015/07/dive-bombers.html
Thursday, 2 July 2015. The one problem being the Noisy Miners - who even have their own Birds Behaving Badly. Webpage. There is a gang of four to five birds who are very loud, and can aggressively attack the cat if she ventures out onto the balcony, squawking wildly and flying directly at her. Even if she is sitting inside at the window. Posted by Jos Boys. Subscribe to: Post Comments (Atom). Partying like there is no tomorrow. The Beast (Eastern Suburbs). Art, culture and design.
