In building MONA, and thinking about
the Mofos, I’ve been thinking about
the recipe for having fun. Here it
is: the participation in asymmetry.
Stay home, reflex, be content, but
your life stays the same. Or: Go out,
have the time of your life. Meet your
next husband. Or your last husband.
Listen to the best band you’ve ever
heard. Or listen to a crap band.
Fun is having an upside, without
much fear of a downside. A woman
at the last Mofo said to me: ‘I’m
68 and I just got turned on to
black metal for the first time’. She
might not have liked it. But so what?
35 years ago I got ‘turned on’
to classical music at an afternoon
concert by the TSO, at the Odeon.
A free gig, and therefore one with
a limited downside. But as it turned
out, a huge upside. This year lots
of stuff is at the Odeon Theatre,
a copy of the now demolished
Strand Theatre in New York, which
is, unfortunately, itself earmarked
for demolition. But, before that,
you have the chance to demolish
yourself, and to find your own
definition of fun.
The nights are getting longer and
colder; our deadlines, shorter.
Must be festival time again.
It’s not always obvious why some
things work and others don’t. Dark
Mofo’s inaugural year exceeded
expectations, partly because they
were low. Now, coming into the
second, I’m daunted by the
question: ‘will it be bigger and
better?’ My response is sort of
‘no, not really’. At its core, Dark
Mofo is a winter solstice celebration,
a festival of performance, feasting,
and other winter revelry. In its next
iteration, we won’t be bigger and
may not be better, but hopefully,
we will be different. And, if by
chance, it ends up being a great
party too, then I’ll no doubt be
saying the same thing in 2015.
On behalf of Dark Mofo, I would
like to acknowledge the support
of the Tasmanian Government
and Premier Will Hodgman —
without whom, the festival
would not be possible. I’d also
like to thank Events Tasmania
(particularly Adam Sproule and
Charles Bracewell), the City of
Hobart, Lord Mayor Alderman
Damon Thomas, Tourism Tasmania,
and our major sponsors Qantas,
Hydro Tasmania, RACT and Audi,
as well as the many tourism,
cultural and arts organisations
who have partnered with us, or
offered their support in other ways.
Lastly, I’d like to say thanks to all
the MONA teams who continue
to deliver time and time again —
particularly, Events and Commies.
Last year, Dark Mofo quite literally
lit up Hobart, inspiring people to
enjoy an exciting cultural event
in the depths of a Tasmanian winter.
Dark Mofo also provides another
reason for people to travel to
Tasmania, helping to stimulate
our tourism and hospitality
sector, growing the economy
and creating jobs.
Some 85,000 visitors and locals
enjoyed the truly outstanding
events, and more than one quarter
of attendees were from interstate.
The Tasmanian Government has
set a target to attract 1.5 million
visitors to the state each year by
2020 and a critical component
of driving tourism are high quality
events, like Dark Mofo.
The first Dark Mofo was spectacular,
and this year’s program guarantees
another festival packed with
opportunity. The return of the
City of Hobart Dark Mofo Winter
Feast will be a standout, as will
the interactive light installation
by Rafael Lozano-Hemmer.
Dark Mofo in 2014 is sure
to be a highlight of winter —
not to be missed.
We are excited to once again be
a major supporter of Dark Mofo —
the event that’s adding a new layer
of seductive winter enjoyment to
our bright winter events schedule.
Dark Mofo 2014 offers no less
than we have all come to expect
from the team who keep giving
us reasons to explore a wide array
of creative ventures. This major
cultural event not only lifts the
winter spirits of Tasmanians, it
lures other like-minded people
to our shores. They’ve heard about
Tasmania and know they want to
visit. Special events and festivals are
strong reasons to make the trip over.
The Government puts $8 million
into around 100 events every year
and backs this up with skills and
support from the talented people
at Events Tasmania and Tourism
Tasmania to leverage events.
Whether you are a local or a visitor,
thank you for being part of this
significant event and don’t forget
to use the hashtag #discovertasmania
when sharing your favourite Dark
Mofo moments!
Following the outstanding success
of the inaugural Dark Mofo in
2013, the City of Hobart is once
again proud to continue its support
of such a high quality festival
of national appeal and growing
international stature.
As a major partner of Dark Mofo,
the City of Hobart recognises the
substantial economic benefit that
the festival delivers to our City
and the State as well as the
important cultural and social
outcomes it provides, particularly
reinforcing and supporting our
Creative Hobart cultural strategy.
Dark Mofo offers an enviable and
unique winter arts experience to
both locals and visitors, contributing
to the increasing recognition of Hobart
as a ‘must visit’ tourist destination.
Our support reflects a commitment
to build and sustain quality events
and attractions in Hobart during
the winter months, repositioning
our cold-weather complacency
and elevating Hobart as a truly
all-seasons creative city.
I encourage you to engage with
this year’s exciting program of
events. I am certain you will
not be disappointed.

You’re in control when 18 powerful
lights pierce the Hobart sky above
Sullivans Cove from dusk until dawn.
Six mechanical levers are set around
the waterfront; as you move a lever,
three robotic searchlights create a
compound beam high above. Direct
the lights to wherever you choose.
As the different beams cross in the
sky, they resist your control and
pulsate autonomously in the darkness.
Lozano-Hemmer originally designed
the work with the USA-Mexico border
in mind. He hopes that one day,
beams on either side of the border
will penetrate the airspace of the
other country, turning the lights into
bridges of connection and invasion.
So gather by the water after sunset
as we illuminate our darkening sky.
Embrace the open air, take the helm
of Articulated Intersect, and on the
first Friday night of Dark Mofo, wander
over to the Tasmanian Museum and
Art Gallery for an evening of art.
The night is yours for the taking.

used it to create an impressive body of

Australian artist Michael Goldberg uses photos, video and

in experiencing art. As darkness falls, each artwork casts
a shadow, challenging the relationship between light, space
and, indeed, our perception of the building. Up until midnight,
each element will morph with the next, ensuring no two

As the sun slips behind the foreboding storm clouds of this
second Dark Mofo, this program of films offers a stellar
selection of new Australian cinema (both features and shorts)
that will blaze and burn upon the screen. We also propose
a timely electroshock reprise of Australia’s darkest cinematic
masterpiece, Ted Kotcheff’s Wake In Fright, which forms the
program’s centre of gravity. Dark Mofo Films presents a survey
of Wake In Fright’s progeny: a selection of incendiary new
Australian films by a generation of film-makers nourished
on Wake in Fright’s innards. Among them is 20,000 Days on
Earth, the new documentary about willing sinner, Nick Cave.
We’re also thrilled to announce a series of exclusive discussions
with the film-makers themselves.

It’s no secret that we have a serious

Jane Pollard’s 20,000 Days on Earth
takes Cave as its subject, but it’s more
than a documentary. Cave becomes
a co-conspirator, as the film combines
drama and reality to stage a fictitious
24 hours in Cave’s life. It’s a frank
and intimate celebration of the
transformative power of the creative
spirit, and has been flooring audiences
worldwide since its premiere at Sundance
Film Festival 2014. Do not miss out.

Dark Mofo presents
Brisbane-based artist Ross Manning is
here to take us underground — literally,
in two unusual subterranean Hobart
spaces. You’ve probably never been
this deep before, but we’re embracing
the urbex ethos (urban exploration)
and venturing into some of Hobart’s
underused and under-the-radar locales.
So take the plunge and investigate
Manning’s Different Rhythms: a selection
of immersive light installations. Manning
flirts with assemblage art (which involves
constructing works from found objects),
but he’s really an inventor, drawing upon
science, art and music along the way.
In the Town Hall Underground, Manning
will present several works, including
Dichroic Filter Piece (2013-14). Multiple
projectors will focus bands of light onto
clusters of dichroic filters (some colour
frequencies are allowed through, while
others are reflected). In turn, the filters
flare out long beams of moving colour,
across the floor and upon the walls.
Across town in the Prince of Wales
Battery, Sad Majick (2009) will split
white light into a spectrum of colour,
using components from the heart of
a data projector’s optical engine.

Time passes, and we being mortal, think of death.
— Tim Walsh
Tim, my brother, died over twenty years ago. Some of my
earliest memories are of him writing poetry. Before he died
he had a plan to get some of his poems together for publication.
But he didn’t have time. Between diagnosis and death he had
only a few months. And morphine and suffering kept him busy.
— David Walsh
Some of David’s friends asked composer Dean Stevenson
to set a suite of Tim’s poetry to music. The Tim Passes song
cycle will make its debut at the Odeon Theatre, sung by
Dean and accompanied by the 33-piece Arco Set Orchestra.

City of Hobart and Dark Mofo present
‘Cities have the capability of providing something for everybody,
only because, and only when, they are created by everybody’.
— Jane Jacobs
How do we use public space in such a way as to maximise its
potential? This question will form the centrepiece for an ongoing
discussion series starring you, Hobart locals and interlopers alike.
Our shared spaces do more than bring us together (although
that is important enough): they say something about who we
are as a group, and who we want to be.
To get the party started, the City of Hobart and MONA have
invited New York artist Vito Acconci to offer up a prototype for
how to create connections between previously discrete aspects
of our city, and in doing so, activate them in unimagined ways.
A while back, we commissioned Acconci — a pivotal player
in the subversive 1970s art scene — to design a major piece
of public architecture for our city, in response to the Queens
Domain Master Plan. During Dark Mofo he will present a
proposed structure to re-link the Queens Domain with its
riverside precinct containing the Hobart Cenotaph, before
turning his vision over to you for discussion and debate.
Speak up. The future, as it were, is in your hands.

Bacchanal, 1551, Taddeo Zuccari
On the banks of the Derwent, our revelries
shall begin: a three-night Bacchanalian
banquet of feasting and fire, drinking
and celebration, music and performance.
Things will be a little different this year,
as we set our communal tables amidst
a wintry forest: wind your way through
the candle-lit trees or ponder the spoils
of the hunting party, as our top-notch
chefs Philippe Leban and Vince Trim
are joined by guests Jared Ingersoll
(formerly of Danks St Depot), Alex
Herbert (formerly of Bird Cow Fish),
and Duncan Welgemoed (Bistro Dom),
to whip up a veritable culinary storm.
Once again, we’ve gathered more than
forty food and drink stallholders for your
delectation, specially sourced from the
far reaches of our humble isle. Be sure
to venture outside to the green as well,
to peruse the nightly offerings from our
street food vendors, before taking a
ride on the Ferris Wheel of Death. The
carousing and merriment reaches its
zenith on Saturday night, as we mark
the moment of the winter solstice
(8.51pm) and look forward to the everbrightening days head. Or rage on into
the inferno at Dark Faux Mo.

JARED
INGERSOLL
You might already know Jared as a
television personality, author, or head
chef and owner of Sydney’s former
Danks Street Depot (one of the first
restaurants to include farmers’ names
on menus, alongside the chefs). His
thing is to educate children and adults
about the importance of eating local,
sustainable produce.

UNDER 16S $5
Alex Herbert has spent the past 25 years
cooking alongside the likes of Maggie
Beer, Christine Manfield (Universal)
and Martin Boetz (Longrain). She was
also owner of Bird Cow Fish (Surry Hills
and Balmain) before founding Breakfast
& Stuff at Sydney’s Saturday Eveleigh
Markets. Stand by as she lets loose on
some unsuspecting local produce.
DUNCAN
WELGEMOED
Duncan, head chef at Adelaide’s Bistro
Dom (voted ‘Hottest Restaurant in SA’
by the Australian in 2013), will bring
together fire and warmth with fresh, local
Tasmanian winter produce. Expect the
unexpected: Duncan’s worked with some
of the UK’s best chefs, and tried some
pretty serious experimentation. He also
recently co-curated the super-successful
Lola’s Pergola at the Adelaide Festival.

Lehman will draw it all together, as the journey reaches

as it travels around the waterfront to the Winter Feast,
burning throughout the night to mark the winter solstice.

For sixteen years, Sunn O))) have been
challenging the way we think about
music. In that relatively brief time,
core members Stephen O’Malley and
Greg Anderson have forged connections
between the worlds of metal, drone,
contemporary composition, jazz and
minimalism. Here for us, Sunn O)))
will perform as a quartet, with O’Malley
and Anderson joined onstage by
Attila Csihar and Tos Nieuwenhuizen.
A formidable Australian exclusive.
As we bow down to Sunn O))), they
fall prostrate at the feet of Earth.
Recognised as the pioneers of drone
doom, and inspiring the formation
of Sunn O))) along the way, Earth’s
style has morphed into something
else entirely. At its heart, their droneheavy experimentation is instrumental,
featuring strong elements of country

It’s a full house at the Odeon Theatre

Yin Xiuzhen, a luminary of Chinese
contemporary art, is building a wall
of ice on the Hobart waterfront. It’s
the latest iteration of a project she
began in 1995, when she was shocked
to discover the polluted condition of
the Funan River in Chengdu, Sichuan
Province, China. Yin assembled 10
cubic metres of frozen contaminated
river water and asked people to help
wash the blocks of ice — a symbolic act
that has rich parallels with ritual baptism.

‘Then dearest child mournest thou only for Jupiter?
Considerest thou alone the burial of the stars?’
— Walt Whitman
Now, on the lip of Sullivans Cove, Yin
will construct the ice wall again —
this time using water from the nearby
Derwent (another polluted river). Take
up a Chinese mop and wash the wall
with river water. As you do, the dirty water
is symbolically cleansed, as the
ice slowly melts and returns to the river.
It’s the night of the winter solstice, and we’re celebrating this
ancient marking of time with a special concert of darkness and
light. The medieval, pagan and ritual elements of the solstice
will be reborn in an incandescent modern soundworld, conducted
by the astounding Anu Tali (Estonia). Enter the world anew.

unparalleled vocalist and Stygian dark angel for our times.

‘Wassail the trees, that they may bear
You many a plum, and many a pear:
For more or less fruits they will bring,
As you do give them wassailing’.
— Robert Herrick
Dark Mofo may be over, but winter sure as hell isn’t. Willie Smiths Apple Shed is the
hottest hut in the Huon Valley: craft ciders, artisan cheeses, and plenty of space to
sit, chat, roll in the hay, etc. They’ve partnered up with other like-minded locals to
throw a mini mid-winter festival to celebrate the region’s apple-pickin’ history. At its
core is a focus on wassailing: the ages-old tradition of scaring nasties out of cider apple
trees, from orchard to orchard, in order to bring on a stellar autumn yield. Now, things
may seem a little strange at first: kings, queens, processions, giving gifts to the trees,
shouting, banging, fire, candlelight, and so forth, but what else would you expect?
And if none of that bobs your Geeveston fanny, that’s okay too — there’ll be cider,
entertainment and feast-worthy food in abundance.
Hydro Tasmania is Australia’s largest
renewable energy producer and water
manager. For the past century, it’s had
a big impact on Tasmania’s economic,
social and cultural development,
and now, it’s time to celebrate.
This October, the company turns one
hundred, and it’s throwing a series
of community events to say thanks
to the people who’ve helped along
the way. To find out about the events,
