People you choose to follow are chosen by you. If you choose boring people who tweet nothing but breakfast, you will get nothing but breakfast.

This one has become somewhat of a trademark dish given that they taste SO awesome, and I have a very limited culinary repertoire.
Samuel Webster Is our cultural nostalgia really a humour based on racist undertones? My latest review of the immutably wonderful Australian Chamber Orchestra with special guest Barry Humphries.

Watching the Australian Ballet's performance of Sleeping Beauty was like having my childhood coloured in; the notions of good and evil, love in both its true and unrequited forms.
Samuel Webster A guy walked past me in the documentary section to Adult 18+, picked up misplaced "Michael Moore Hates America", then moved onto "Erotic Star." When asked why blind nationalism didn't turn him on, he hailed hitler, said he was into purer things, then hailed a cab to the old steel mill.

If John Lennon written a song about men instead of Woman is the Nigger of the World, he would've been shunned and laughed out of the Rock'N'Roll Philosophy Club (they meet in opium dens and snort cocaine off Stratocasters). Why? Because for most purposes, we have it easy.
Samuel Webster P.S. This week there will be two photoshoots (one gig, one portrait) uploaded, an article and later in the month another article and review.

There are ways in which technology can be used (against its intentions) to inspire.
Samuel Webster The Australian Ballet's current show.
bit.ly
Concord is a show easily inhibited by its form. The Australian Ballet seeks to put on a display which covers a variety of genres, but it is all too easy to choose pieces which ,in their diversity, may conflict.
Samuel Webster An extended essay on Young Adult Fiction.

Young Adult Fiction is one of the few genres with a psychologically pervasive and accepted sociological function. Authors attempt to show the change which can occur at the adolescent stages, through a ...
Samuel Webster My review of Mercury, from the ever insightful Sydney Dance Company.
bit.ly
The stage of Mercury by the Sydney Dance Company is immaculate, a large white room with a glowing orb at its rear. It is not really an uncommon site, such a minimalist stage, given the practicality of open area for dance, and the emphasis which should be placed on the physical being. ...
