Here lies the happenings of the busy and abundant life of a Matsuri event held at Queensland Raceway. One of two events held each year, however, with the fast-changing environment of the banning of motor sporting events, who knows what will happen? So savour the smell of the burning rubber, the squeal of the tyres as they tear up the bitumen, and keep your eyes open for the fast-paced environment, savour it all while you can.

Redbank Plain Town Square Sound Walk This sound walk takes the busy, boring and usual sounds of shopping centres, transforms it, and delivers it in a way that is intriguing and memorable.

This walk is designed to simulate a prehistoric river where small dinosaur packs, mosquitos and flying creatures gather

WHY LISTEN TO PLANTS? A plant knows and makes worlds. It communicates. https://liquidarchitecture.org.au/events/a-plant-is-a-community When we regard a plant, we usu­ally only see what’s above the sur­face: stems, trunks, branches, leaves, buds and flow­ers. But there’s so much more below ground – intri­cate nets of roots, radi­cles and fungal bodies through which water, nutri­ents, knowl­edge and com­mu­nity flows. Plants are always con­nected, always talk­ing and lis­ten­ing to each other, even in the most con­structed of land­scapes. A plant knows and makes worlds; it is always in com­mu­ni­ca­tion with others. Through root-lis­ten­ing, through prac­tices of shar­ing words, time — and seeds — can we cul­ti­vate a veg­etable-based con­scious­ness? This augmented reality sound walk uses Leah Barclay’s recordings from beneath the surface of the soil to explore the acoustic ecology of plants in response to Monica Gagliano’s new book ‘Thus Spoke the Plant’ (North Atlantic Books; released Novem­ber 13, 2018).
