Zootopia Urban Jungle Day
Join us for a rumble in the jungle at Queensland College of Art Griffith University for a free day of events to celebrate the opening of the Zootopia: Posters from the Urban Jungle exhibition at DELL Gallery @ QCA.
Zootopia: Posters from the urban jungle
Overcome by complacency? Are the only free radicals you know the ones swimming in your bloodstream? Then come along to this youth initiative and check out how those who couldn't stomach it any longer made it personal, political and public for the rest of us through the art of the poster.
Students from Queensland College of Art Griffith University have sifted through the collections of the State Library of Queensland and the Griffith University Art Collection to present an exhibition of 140 provocative posters which will jog your memories, pump your blood and yank your chains!
Come to the Urban Jungle Day to celebrate this event.

Redtronic and inthemix.com.au in association with fasterlouder.com.au presents Infusion...
Infusion, arguably Australia’s number one live dance act and fresh from rocking audiences at the SXSW and Miami Winter Music Conference, hit Brisbane for the first time with their new five piece outfit. Now with two guitarists added, Infusion take on a fuller sound to devastate even further. Riding high on the success of their critically acclaimed second album ‘Six Feet Above Yesterday’, Infusion’s latest single ‘Natural’ will be released in late March to coincide with the tour.
Providing ample support for Infusion will be Soma Rasa, also in full live mode, with their stompin' electro hybrid of breaks n’ house, pushing the boundaries of sampology, turntablism and live beats. With multiple Big Day Out, Livid, and Homebake performances behind them, including destroying the Hothouse at this year’s BDO in Hazard Brothers mode, Soma Rasa are electro phonography at its finest.
Rounding out the live action is Ponyloaf, who featured as a JJJ ‘Next Crop Artist’ earlier this year and have supported the diverse likes of Chicks on Speed and Kid 606 to Stereolab and TISM. With ex-Regurgitator keyboardist featuring on synths, this energetic three piece have been described by inthemix as “…sounds truly unlike any other Australian electronic outfit right now - not quite Warp Records-esque IDM, shoegazer rock or new-school breaks, but a rather fresh and unpredictable hybrid of all of the above”.
All bands will be ably supported by DJ’s Cosmo & Nearhos, Mark Briais, Allan Ho, and Pistola, plus visual installations from Oko-T (Big Day Out 2004).
