The beautiful WOTI publication we recently printed at Big Fag Press is now available. We’ve been calling it a “broadsheet”, but really it’s a narrowsheet. 12 pages of creek walking goodness, some hand-drawn maps, poems, stories, a sort of manifesto, and even leech cartoons.

We have plenty of copies printed on IMPACT recycled paper 250gsm, which we are happy to give away to interested parties (you pay the postage) – just send us an email (info@walking-upstream.net).

And of course, you’ll definitely be handed one when you come on a creek walk with us!

Here you can find the publication’s pages in a digital format.

For those among you who like a “collectable”, or are hunting for a Christmas present for that special someone who has everything, you can buy the rare limited edition WOTI narrowsheet on lush Hahnemuhle paper from the Big Fag Press online store. Edition of 10, signed and numbered!

We’re all off to Melbourne this week, to present Waterways of the Illawarra for an exhibition at Margaret Lawrence Gallery, VCA. It’s all part of the Performing Mobilities program.

Here’s where you’ll find us:

• At the launch of the exhibition on Thurs 8 Oct, Margaret Lawrence Gallery, VCA.
• Wandering up Edgars Creek with Karina Quinn at 930am-11am on Fri 9 Oct, Coburg.
• Doing a gallery talk on Saturday at Margaret Lawrence Gallery Sat 10 Oct, 2pm-330pm

We’ve produced a beautiful new broadsheet on the Big Fag Press for the occasion, which offers some highlights from the WOTI blog, as well as new material. Here are some production shots. Design is by John Causley.

Here’s a very short video of the printing process.

Here’s the digital proof of the broadsheet Walking Upstream_Proof_No.3 before we made the plates up.

Difficulty: steep and full of old bricks and iron.

Summary: small creek bed – scarcely flowing, even after rain.

Directions: Continue south from B10.  Near a tiny hut.

Point of disappearance: no reason to ascend.
