Boy is both a heartbreaking and hilarious coming-of-age story about a dreamer called Boy (James Rolleston) who lives in rural New Zealand in 1984 and whose idol, besides Michael Jackson, is his long-absent father, who finally shows up in Boy’s life and turns out to be a bit of a disappointment, really. Rather than the close relative of MJ’s with rad moonwalking abilities Boy had hoped for, Alamein is in fact just returning from a seven-year stint in jail for robbery and is not even a deep sea diver or a war hero. But what follows is a beautifully told story of father-son bonding, of growing up, and of learning to get by with the hand you’ve been dealt.

As part of the seventh annual Australian Poetry Festival, a group of poets calling themselves the Guerrilla Army has designs to take over the Sydney CBD from late August – with a poetic twist, of course.
Sydney’s creative team, Token Imagination, will be recruiting ten of the best poets to compose a speech bubble of poetry each for the strike. These will be duplicated to make 100 speech bubbles per poet that will sweep across the streets of Sydney city. The Guerilla Army is on an undying mission to communicate all that’s lyrical and poetic in its efforts to create the biggest racket for Sydney’s budding creative talents.
To enlist in the Guerilla Army, go to www.tokenimagination.com or contact Token Imagination info@tokenimagination.com before August 1. The ten winners will be announced at Stanley Street Station on August 3.

Money. We certainly work hard to earn it. So what better way to keep it nice and cosy (while you still have it) than in a wallet you’ve designed yourself.
Dosh, the Sydney-based wallet brand that likes collaborating with creative thinkers has decided to team up with front-running design conference, Semi-Permanent, for a competition that offers like-minded artists a chance to be one of their design collaborators.
The winning design will be plastered on their virtually indestructible wallets and sold on Dosh’s website and in stores worldwide. And the cool part, you’ll actually earn 5% from every wallet with your design that gets sold. For more information log on
here or here to download the design template.
Competition closes on March 27.
Don't these look like bare canvases to you? Start designing.

Dosh's, Wallets As Art takes the humble money-holding device out of the back pocket and into the realm of creativity. The collaboration – featuring designs by Jonathan Zawada, Kill Pixie, French and Stefan Marx is the brainchild of Blue Sky Designers, Mark and Henri.
The kids at Dosh are really into the whole, ‘new year, new wallet’ idea. Seeing as we just started a new year we thought it fitting that we offer you the chance to win a new wallet. Synchronicity, you see?
We are giving away one limited edition Zawada (top) and one limited edition Marx (bottom) wallet to two lucky new subscribers, so get subscribing.

Erin Wasson’s enviable style can be yours. Building from her x RVCA clothing label and high-end accessories line Wasson’s latest jewellery collection, a collaboration with Pascal Mouawad, will begin selling exclusively in Australia at miijo.com this month.
Inspired by the southwest American dessert, Wasson fuses American Indian tribal aesthetics with a sense of the ancient. The collection is like something you’ve discovered in a pirate’s hidden treasure chest or a vagabond’s pouch. Putting a modern spin on her ages-old inspiration, “I wanted to capture that sense of someone on the border, crossing back and forth,” explains Wasson.
The rings, necklaces, cuffs and bangles look like something from a foregone time, yet Wasson’s gift for the streetwise and sartorial means you’ll be looking enviously fashion forward with these pieces.
We are giving away this fabulous armour knuckle ring to one lucky new subscriber, so get subscribing.

We really are spoiling you with this one! It's part of the SS 0910 range we've been fawning over for some time now. Truth be told, we really want to keep this dress for ourselves. But we won’t - darn you, unfailing morality.
Down here in Oz, the temperature is heating up and hemlines are following suit. This Jessie Hill stunner is the perfect accompaniment to the simmering summer heat. Contrasting, as it does, the cheeky flirtatiousness of the layered frill skirt with the artistic print and the grungy buckle detail along the side of the torso.
Want to know more about Jessie? Head to her freshly launched website. For all your clothing and coverage needs.
