Sydney Writer's Festival

Last week, I spoke at the Sydney Writer's Festival 'in conversation' with Robbie Buck.

They didn't record it on video but most of the audio was recorded.

So for those who missed out on the launch at the Museum of Sydney or SWF, I decided
to grab the audio and line it up with the relevant images I was discussing. A slide-show
with voices if you like.

Sadly the introductory bit is missing so we start about 10 minutes into the hour long talk.

I chose a handful of images to talk about - when the video begins we're up to Suburb
No 9, Blacktown.

It's about 42 minutes long but you can always fast-forward - I was pretty chatty that
day so you won't miss too much.

(Or, if you're in the city this evening, I'm yabbering on in the flesh from 6pm at
Dymocks, 424 George St, CBD.)
