Torn - Glebe (Wed 07 Jun 2017)

Bernadette Jiwa (from Story of Telling) on Curiosity:

the first key is curiosity. You can’t see problems worth solving unless you’re curious, and you also care about solving them.

Is Comedy the New News? - Dan Ilic / Andrew P Street / Spectrum (Fri 07 Apr 2017)

Poster (Pauline Hanson) - The Monthly / Glebe (Fri 07 Apr 2017)

Dan Ilic on Comedy:

[Andrew P Street] is comedy the new news?

[ Dan Ilic ] Politics is often dense and obfuscates intent, so there's ... value in breaking down, in simple, clear language, what the hell is going on.

Science - Peter Cox / Marcus Strum (Tue 04 Apr 2017)

Poster - Victoria Markets / Melbourne (Thu 29 Mar 2017)

Peter Cox on Science:

Science is not a collection of absolute truths. Scientists are delighted when we are wrong because it means we have learnt something.

Poster - Erskineville (Fri 07 Jan 2011)
Beauty is eternity gazing at itself in a mirror.

But you are eternity and you are the mirror.

The quote is from Khalil Gibran (The Prophet - 1923) who features in a current exhibition at the State Library of New South Wales.

The poster appeared next to the Syke1 poster featured here back on Fri 29 Oct 2010 (where have the last few months gone).

The rain over the last week or so has made the poster fall apart. The photo below by Gotocab from his 29 Dec 2010 cab shift shows the poster in its original state.

Poster - Watkin Street / Newtown Hotel (Thu 16 Dec 2010)
A ripped A4 Poster pasted to the side wall of the recently reopened Newtown Hotel.

I like this a lot for some reason. The sweeping wave-like hill and it's detailed surface (with figures and all), the weeping willow, and the warrior with his sword and fancy boots to match the curvature of the hill. Seems to have some Chinese influence, but it would appear to be of European heritage.

Have seen a few these characters postered around the place. They are always holding something in one hand - a piece of pipe in this case. Not even sure what to call them. The colours work in brillantly with the surrounding advertising.

Can somehow empathise with this little character.

Spot the Guerrilla Knitting on the sign post. A lot of it around the inner city and will post a few photos over the next few weeks (will tag with Guerrilla Knitting).

Stumbled across another Syke Poster. It was just around the corner from the other two (see Poster 1 and Poster 2).

Will take a more bit more of look next week to see if there are anymore around the place.

A few more photos to give an idea of the surrounds.
