Since 2000 Allen has re-staged a number of early works, such as the two -
part installation O - AR (1974) and the early performances Contact (1974), Poetry for Chainsaws (1976), News (1976) and On Planting a Native (1976) in Adelaide, Sydney, Auckland, New Plymouth and Wellington.
We decided to go ahead with the
installation, enjoy the Hush -
O - Matic in its loudest mode until those
parts showed up, and fit the last few bits retroactively.
