Screen Festival Opening Party Presented by Telstra
Following on from our Australian premiere screening of -The Royal Hotel, kick off the Screen Festival at our huge outdoor Opening Party, presented by Telstra.
Celebrate the inaugural SXSW Sydney Screen Festival at Tumbalong Park, with food trucks, drinks from the Young Henry's Bar, plus DJ sets from Go-Jo and Harvey Sutherland!
Harvey Sutherland
The Melbourne-born record producer, keyboard player, club DJ and bandleader made a name amongst his hometown’s electronic underground with a string of cult disco singles and lo-fi cassette funk. Early 12-inches like Bermuda and Priestess were dance records in love with the sound of soul and disco music. He released his debut album, Boy, to acclaim last year.
Go-Jo
The south-west Australian born Marty Zambotto (Go-Jo) is a standout both online and in person due to his outside-of-the-box approach to entertainment, confusing style, and genuinely strange but refreshingly genuine and positive character. Go-Jo's musical style is the result of the guitar-based singer-songwriter idols he listened to in his youth, mixed with a deep appreciation for the great pop producers (Max Martin, Ilangelo etc.) which he developed early in his musical career while working as a producer for other lead artists.
SET TIMES
7pm Doors open
7.10pm - 7.40pm: Go-Jo
8pm onwards: Harvey Sutherland

444.2
WED, OCT 18, 10:00 AM
Screen Festival
The first star cluster mapped by the original stargazers of Southern Africa constellates 444.2 light years away from Earth, ancient astronomical practice superposed on the geography and modern astrophysics of the Southern African Large Telescope. Immerse in the starlit & ghostly terrain of the Karoo, where volumetric fashion performance unfolds to a cinematic Afro-diasporic score. Costumed figurations and particle bodies morph in a triptych, entangling African cosmology with the technological sublime of inner and outer space.
444.2 is showing as part of the XR Showcase, located at Level 4, Halls 6 and 7 of the International Convention and Exhibition Centre
