Cosplaying!
Today i went over to the perth institute of contemporary arts to check out guy vinciguerra's cosplay exhibition - photos of Japanese teens cosplaying (for those who don't know, cosplaying is dressing up as anime characters). It was way cool; my favourite was the girl with long blonde hair in a pink ruffled little girl's dress and clutching a furry little pink teddy bear, like some demonic little girl. It reminded me of this little Italian girl that i saw in church the other day - she had all this curly brown hair and wore this little dark dress and looked like one of those little European porcelain dolls, or something like a dark-haired version of Claudia from Anne Rice's Interview with a Vampire. And as the prayers started, the girl and her little brother/sister (i couldn't tell, it was just a baby) just started screaming their heads off and her mother had to take her out of the church, so it was like, whoa, their little inner demon's protesting.

While at pica, we also checked out the exhibition by Dutch textile designer Maria Blaisse and Nat Paton's Punt. Blaisse's exhibition was all black and white, very Issey Miyake and also very like his protege, whose name i can't remember now because i don't have my Vogue magazine with me at the moment, while Punt was all about gambling, very Las Vegas-ish. Then after that, we went over to the West Australia gallery...um, I forgot what it's called, but something like West Australia gallery or national gallery, I think. The one by pica and across from the west australian library, by the fountain anyway.
Oh yeah, it was an artsy-fartsy day.
Went to Conca's for dinner today. Everyone had chili mussels while I had spag and stole a couple of chili mussels. Enough for me to reach for the water and go back to my spag.
Right now am watching the Dissociatives (daniel johns of silverchair and paul mackel) oerforming on Rove Live. Rove is funny, but it's not as cool as Letterman. ;)
