For those in the Melbourne area, if you're driving near Frankston at night, drive down Davey Street, past the Frankston Arts Centre, and have a look at my 1997 video work "Stare-Listen."  It's currently playing in the big glass cube at the front of the Arts Centre as part of their "Art After Dark" program.  I think the combination of the light and sound on the video, with the light and sound of the nighttime traffic in downtown Frankston is quite wonderful.  For those who aren't in the Melbourne area, this little documentary video should give you a flavour of what experiencing the work (mostly made in non-urban environments) in this urban environment looks, sounds, and feels like.  Thanks to Angela Lang and all the staff at Frankston Arts Centre who helped make this happen
