Fly by wire.

Went to the St Kilda night market last night (home of cute stalls, funky t-shirts and many 'pseudo alternative' types, a semi-dark (beige?) art in which I occasionally dabble).

For some reason this year Melbourne has had an unprecedented fly invasion – and it was especially evident at St Kilda last night. Everyone (me and flatmate included) was walking around madly swatting their arms around their heads, looking like they were in the grips of some sort of psychotic episode.

Not sure what it is about badly grounded electric lights (or plastic flowers?) but the flies lurrrrrrrrved the set-up shown here.





Felt like Alfred Hitchcock should be somewhere with a megaphone yelling ‘cut’.
